Devin Haney moves up to the welterweight division this week in a big fight on a strong card in Saudi Arabia.
He takes on Brian Norman Jr, the WBO welterweight champion of the world.
In some ways like Terence Crawford, quiet stoic warrior, unassuming, but a lethal force in the ring and a real killer in the boxing ring.
Devin Haney for some time since the fight has been made has been making the odd comment in the media that suggests he doesn’t think much of Norman’s boxing ability.
Norman is unbeaten and Haney didn’t look at his best earlier this year in the New York show he boxed on.
A Crucial Mistake Devin Haney Could Be Making Before Brian Norman Jr Fight
He’s moving up in weight now and should be stronger and not weight drained anymore, which is a good thing for him, but the welterweight division will be a test for him as well.
He’s not exactly taking an easy fight for his first bout at welterweight either.
Norman has been in excellent form in recent times and just because he is not as well known as Haney matters for little.
If Norman were to win this weekend in strong form, his name will continue to get out there, him being underestimated by Haney or anyone else will suit him down the ground.
He’s the WBO welterweight champion of the world at the end of the day.
Here’s the fight time for Brian Norman vs Devin Haney this weekend.
