Devin Haney advised Teofimo Lopez at the moment on X, “You’re going to get it” as soon as he wins his Could struggle towards Jose Ramirez in Instances Sq., Manhattan, New York, and his October rematch with Ryan Garcia.
Haney began it by asking him why he didn’t take the struggle with Subriel Matias, however he didn’t do it properly. He mangled Teo’s title, calling him “TeHOE” when asking him why he didn’t face the highly effective former IBF 140-lb champion Subriel (21-2, 21 KOs), who isn’t any piece of cake for anybody within the division. He’d be a nightmare for Haney.
Teofimo gave these excuses for not preventing Matias:
Prime Rank needed the struggle on the West Coast. Teo needed it in New York Metropolis
Positioned the struggle on PPV
Supplied $2.8 million: Teofimo responded that he’s Prime Rank’s “Final star. He talked about Keyshawn Davis because the apprentice for Prime Rank, as their pupil, that they’re attempting to rework right into a star.
If Haney can beat Ramirez and Garcia in his subsequent two fights, a conflict towards Teofimo could be an enormous one if he doesn’t get overwhelmed this 12 months. Lopez hasn’t mentioned who he plans on preventing subsequent, but when he faces Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis, he’s prone to lose badly.
He’s already having main issues simply attempting to beat the 140-pound fighters. He lucked out in his fights towards Sandor Martin and Jamaine Ortiz. Lots of people thought Teofimo Lopez each fights.
It might be higher for Haney to give attention to what’s in entrance of him proper now: former WBC and WBO 140-lb champion Ramirez. This man may beat Devin and taint his October rematch with Garcia.
Ramirez: The Finish of The Line?
That struggle would occur anyway, on condition that Turki Al-Sheikh desires to stage it in Riyadh. However it might take plenty of curiosity out of the match if Haney loses to Ramirez. I’m now predicting that Haney will go 0-2 in his fights in 2025, and his profession can be in oblivion.
Devin can nonetheless preserve plugging alongside if he will get with promoter Eddie Hearn, who can put him on a Joshua-type four-fight rebuild job to refurbish him to issue specs. Let’s face it: Haney was by no means that good, to start with, however he’d performed effectively attributable to him melting right down to struggle smaller, at 135, and fought the suitable man initially when he moved as much as 140, Regis Prograis.
You’re going to get it.. as soon as I beat Ramirez & Ryan you’ll be subsequent.. however u knew that already u simply clout chasing https://t.co/2QXFiZSg8h
