Lomachenko vs Haney: Devin Haney could be able to face Shakur Stevenson in another super bout if he keeps his undisputed world lightweight titles, but Todd DuBoef, CEO of Top Rank, believes that would be a “big mistake” to ignore Vasiliy Lomachenko.
Early on Sunday morning in Las Vegas, Haney takes on Lomachenko to defend his WBC, WBA, IBF, and WBO titles.
DuBoef thinks defeating the Ukrainian champion would mark Haney’s rapid career growth and pave the way for a huge fight with former unified super-featherweight champion Stevenson.
Loma claims that he is perfect and the best he can be. Therefore, DuBoef stated, “I believe it is a very, very significant milestone for Devin to fulfil if Haney can defeat Lomachenko at his best.”
“Devin has shown to have excellent size, quickness, terrific footwork, and incredibly fast hands. However, because of the matrix, you are unaware of your surroundings.
“If he hasn’t already, he’s going to learn a lot on Saturday night. because one of the greatest boxers of our time will award him a master’s degree.
“Listen, it makes sense for Stevenson to compete against the winner.
“Devin Haney is so large; can he maintain his 135-pound weight? Or does he leap to 140 pounds? Additionally, we weigh 140 pounds, so there are chances.
“Therefore, I believe that Devin and Shakur’s battle is a natural, natural fight from a strictly boxing standpoint.
“We didn’t have Mayweather and Mosley in their peak, but it would have been amazing.
“It’s that kind of battle, and they are both well acquainted. Love to engage in such kind of bouts, but we’ll have to wait and see how the contest pans out, as well as how Lomachenko and the other competitors feel.
“We need to make decisions based on a better reading of the situation rather than attempting to push the warriors to do something they don’t truly desire.
A shocking loss against Teofimo Lopez in 2020 abruptly ended Lomachenko’s resounding run as the undisputed champion.
But the very talented southpaw has answered with three consecutive wins, and DuBoef is adamant Lomachenko can defeat Haney this weekend with yet another masterful performance.
