Never knew haney was this chill. A stand up man and very humble. Best of luck in your next fight!!
😂
He always been this chill 😂
@@usernamezkr Well, i'm sure it has something to do with him becoming Muslim, BUT a good bit of that could also just be devin growing up. He's still a young dude and he's still maturing.
@@usernamezkr oh i thought you were talking about him being chill not his willingness to fight people
@@usernamezkr regardless, i'm not religious but becoming Muslim def seems like it was a good move for him
Wish we had more boxers like Devin, taking on challenge after challenge.
Even more insane that he's only 24. I believe he lost the Loma fight, personally, but at that age to essentially draw vs a guy with 2 Olympic gold medals, 396-1 and who actually unified the belts is an incredible achievement. And he dominated all of his other opponents. What would push him into legend status is if he rematched Loma.
@@juju52291loma didn’t want the rematch. Tells you he didn’t believe he won deep down.
@@jaymann1762nah, it's cause he knows they're gonna do him dirty again, he ain't no fool
@@juju52291I agree on the loma fight
Haney has been running from Shakur !
Give this man his props. Dude has been grinding for his spot and is not stopping. Really should be appreciating talents like Haney in boxing fr
Lol he lost to a rig fight against lomo I was there in the arena in mgm in Vegas
sure but loma beat him
@@boss7229 why does you being in the arena prove the fight was rigged? You’re obviously a Loma fan not a boxing fan.
@@dagwood5041 might wanna fact check that statement
I'm good.
Devin Haney is truly chasing greatness. He's always been invested in boxing 100%. You can see him walk out with Zab for a fight he had when he was 10 years old. Boxing is this guy's life.
And paying to have losses removed from his record too… yeah he’s all over the boxing business for sure!!!! 👌🏼

You haters need a job
Would love to see Haney rematch Loma but props to him fighting Loma when nobody else wanted to and now he’s fighting regis, another fighter nobody wanted to fight.
Gervonta stays ducking everyone, Ryan busy on social media, shakur stays clout chasing, and Haney is chasing greatness. Props to him.
Almost agree on all you say except Ryan, Ryan fought a few tuff hardened dudes which he knocked out clean! His journey before getting to the Luke Cambell fight is actually amazing. Then stopped Luke too and fought Davis after. Ryan legit
@@ronaldchin-a-lien6222So has Gervonta
Tank still won't fight Loma..crazy...lol
Everyone is ducking shakur FACT you’re a casual ydksab
@mrjotaro 😂 notice how 10 percent of the boxing community thinks this. And they all have no idea what they talking about. I bet money you're under the age of 16.
Props to Haney. He makes no excuses and he's doing it right

I slowed Devin Haney fight down with lomachenko (slow motion), with pen and paper to count bodies and head shots from both fighters throughout the fight. Haney had the same no# of body shots as lona had straight jabs. Haney won that fight hands down
50$ you lying
@@MajinBULK You lost. I didn't have to do all of that though, I just watched the fight in HD and saw Haney whoop Loma's ass like the rest of the rational world.

Lucky bro. I'd rather pay to see Haney Vs Prograis, it's a more significant fight than that Floyd Vs Garcia exhibition crap & the undercard is wack AF too
@@brandonbrown88 why y’all hating? It’s just the support, don’t you get it?? What the hell y’all doing with your life? Casuals smh 🤦🏽♂️
Haney seems like such a good dude! Why do so many people hate on him 😳 besides being great at what he does. I mean, what a genuine dude
Cause he's acting like he beat Loma when in reality deep down he knows he was gifted that win
They hate Haney because they miss their fathers
@@reth4761he did beat loma
He'd get destroyed by Sean O'malley, and he's sitting there saying "i'll never let a White boy beat me" lol well Sean O'malley is White, and he could actually do whatever he wants to him in a fight.
@@reth4761he beat loma casual.
Great interview with the champ! Can’t wait for December 9th!
24 and this level headed...this guy is going far. Already has been far. Belts on belts.
Reminds me of a young Floyd Mayweather tbh
Devin makes a lot of sense, the stuff he accepted to fight in Australia was ridiculous.. putting stuff in his body especially
Honestly, great interview - he seems so level headed and chill in comparison to the likes of Tank and others. I do also like that he went away from the promotion he preferred just to get the fights / belts he wanted and then stuck to his word and returned. It's EXACTLY how these fighters should be navigating the various promotions - just go out, make your deals and land where you need to / want to in order to get the most appealing fights.
Haney seems like a humble level headed dude. Awesome interview
@@saladfroghahaha cry 🎻
Nice comeback with these interviews in perfect timing 🙏🏽
He’s right, Sean stands basically zero chance lol
Just like aljo right
@@Dparsnipaljo isn’t calling out world class boxers to fight 🤡
And in a real fight Haney would be dead in seconds.
@@Dparsnipactually no not at all like aljo. This would be boxing
That's because Sean is not a boxer, and MMA is not boxing. Do you really need this explained to you?
I like Dev.. Sounds like he aint ducking anyone.. I edged him against Loma - Loma took too long to get going.
You're doing good at promoting ya fight haney, keep up the hard work man, its motivating 💪
Heard about this dude but never seen him box live...grew up following every era of boxing but at some point during the mid 2000s the entire sport just became uninteresting but this year made a good impression so im trying to get back into it and learn these newer guys
Which was your favorite era?
Been some big fights this year. Year is ending strong with Benavidez vs Andrade...a great fight by two guys who Canelo refuse to even consider fighting😂😂😂
Damn he walks around 160 and was cutting all the way down to 135. No wonder he is so big for the weight
He walks around 170
@@onyijenny he said he walks around 160 in this interview
@@Mike-hy8csmost boxers are not truthful about their walk around weight. Rolly Romero walks around at 180 and he cuts down to 135 and 140 without any complaints. So if Haney walked around 20 lbs lighter than Rolly does, why would making 135 be so hard for him?
@@RoyaltyGotHits Cause he said he isnt a fat 160. He said he is still cut up at 160 which means he isnt losing much fat to get down to 135. Which makes it way harder. You could be 200 lbs and fight at 147 it just depends on what kind of weight you are cutting. If you stay in shape all year round your walk around weight is probably not going to be 40 or 50 lbs heavier than what you fight at
He’s a weightbully that still ain’t got no power even against smaller men😂
Can't nobody beat this kid Devin Haney the Dream youngest undisputed champ 🤫
@@boxingwithshawn😂 I was about to write the exact same thing
I love devin man, very classy both in and out the ring.. F the haters bro
We truly in the next era man. Let’s think about that for a second. Floyd retired, Canelo almost done. Now we got new blood, TANK, Haney, Shakur, Inoue, Teo, Bud, Spence, Regis, Frank Martin. Everybody fighting to be the best. Exciting times for boxing fans.
Bud,Spence almost done to bro they been around along time

Great questions and great answers 🎯
I like this interview straight to the point
This kid has become a global treasure. Nice to see that everyone likes him now.
You better be over 50 calling a man his age “kid” lmao

@@LeftHandEman how ??
Devin and his Dad Americas favorite Duo
Devin spoke all facts should’ve took that 25%
I can’t believe he didn’t, total ego
@@boxingwithshawnstop the cap…, you’re missing the point. Devin took 22% and had to go over seas. He believed in himself now he is in a position to call the shots. If shakur was confident and truly wanted the fight he would have gotten his biggest pay day and became champ then he would be at the top… how hard is that to understand?
@@boxingwithshawn I guess you don’t understand anything I just said lol. Bottom line if I were shakur I would have taken my biggest pay day beat Haney “since I’m so sure of myself” became champ now I make the rules. But he didn’t do that… you gotta wonder why at the end of the day. It’s not that hard to see lol
@@boxingwithshawn 😂🤦🏾♂️😂
@@boxingwithshawn why in the world would Devin agree to fight a split purse!? In what world does that make sense after he became undisputed and has the wayyyyyyy better resume!? lol do you think any fighter like a Floyd, Oscar, tank, anyone who did that would agree to that!? You can’t be this dense
Devin Haney is so beyond his years.
man i love haney so sad people hate him for no reason man breaks my heart fr
Cos him and his father 🧢’d out
People hate Haney cause he's black 😂😂
@@jamesvick6070 I’m black and I Haney is one of my least favorite fighters. Can’t pull the race card on this one.
Because he's hella young & at the top people hate the success
@@brandonbrown88 yess I can where was the last white fighter y'all hate as much as Haney or Izzy? Never was one the mma/boxing world only hate on black fighters it's getting so old now 🤣 it's crazy alot of y'all are just incels 😂
It would be very hard for any MMA fighter to beat this caliber of a Boxer in the square circle.
Cool interview
this is legitimately a great interview
Devin is an all time great in the present moment. It it truly an honour
One of my favorite fighters. Old school
The mma guys going to boxing was on its last legs until this weekend.. Francis just brought that back to life.. he showed it’s totally possible!
These comments from Devin havnt aged well.
In his defence I and I think most were with his thinking but, I have Francis little chance..
Francis once again overcomes the odds..
They have to make a movie about this guy one day. It’s a perfect movie script..
Coming from where he did, into the UFC, then it all starts to look like it could fall apart but he rises through it again.. perfect movie!!
Yes 👏
Haney grew on me during this interview. I didn’t really like him prior. I like how he seems genuine and gave the MMA guys props stating he can’t go in the cage and win. He humbled himself. I like it. Let’s see him and tank and shakur go at it!
He’s been humble I think you guys run with narratives from people who hate him and watch bias clips of him and judged him the Lomachenko fight was something I think he took the villain role in which wasn’t him at all but if you’ve followed his career he’s always been humble and carried himself like a champ and has always chased the biggest fights
Why didn’t you like him prior to this?
Are you a Conor fan ?
@@iorilamia Because he hadn't sat with his favorite interveiwer yet. Haney is the same dude he always been. People just didn't like him because Haney beat up their favorite fighter.
great interview
Good kid! Refreshing to see
I used to be a devin hater but can’t lie he ducks no smoke whatsoever. I fw him now
That’s what made me like him too he want all the smoke
@@isaiahharris2229 he’s scared of tank
“Ducks no smoke” yet he ran to 140 to fight the weakest current champion at that weight😂💀

Good interview 👍 👏
Great fkn interview lads
Shakur literally had nothing to offer he shoulda took that 25%
@boxingwithshawnif shakur is a p4p then devin should be above him in that list. the resumes aren’t close.
Devin is a cool dude. I like how he respects each sport and knows there differences aren't to be trifled with. The demographic is obviously the same, but they're two different sports. Unfortunately Francis is about to get that by way of rude awakening.
Francis did surprisingly great...now eat those words 😂
this didn't age well
@@thingsNLhow? Francis still lost….he got a knockdown but he was outboxed

I have my tickets!!! Can’t wait
Well spoken and interesting guy
I been thinking for a while that 135 isn’t even Devins weight class. I think he’s going to do even better at 140 and have some more power behind his punches.
No he won't, it don't work that way. He might have more man strength in the clinch and more endurance that's it. You can't coach power.
You either have power or you don't. Eating a little more and cutting less weight won't magically change that. He'll definitely be feeling healthier and fuller for 140 but that doesn't do anything as far as natural genetics in power .
@@naeemtull2026That and Devin doesn’t punch correctly. He doesn’t throw his punches in a way that generates power.
@@thelevisullivanClassic sofa king comment. You know how to punch correctly?

Great interview 👍
what's the interviews name?
Haney: “I am the champ, Shakur has no belts, I should be getting more”
Also Haney: *Tries to justify Regis getting less money than him as the champion*
Difference here is Haney is more of a draw than Regis. Maybe if shakur was a bigger draw than Haney then he would have a conversation
haney is the bigger fighter in both situations
@@ajpizza4312Based on what metrics??
@@whatchusayintvHe definitely is not. Look at Regis’ PPV numbers and look at Devin’s.
dont forget hes a muslim which explains alot
Such a mature and grounded man for his young age, very impressive!
Great video
This interview made me decide to book his upcoming fight
Not sayin Devin is on Mayweathers level but him and Money Mayweather have similar styles. Ortiz said Mayweather couldn’t crack an egg with a punch, same goes for Devin. But just like how Floyd put a hellacious beating on Mcgreggor Haney would obliterate Sean in that ring. It would be his first Ko in like 48 months and it be so bad you’d think Haney was a Ko artist💯
I was thinking a similar idea if Sean fought Haney…
Let’s go Haney 🔥
I'm a fan of Devin great guy
Dude reminds me of a young Floyd

Haney is the most unbothered fighter
Devin is disrespectful to

I don't know who the host of this show is but ive seen him do interviews over the years and he gets respect all over from boxers & fighters
This dude ducked Shakur Stevenson , Stevenson petitioned to become devins mandatory and devin moved up to 140.
If Stevenson wanted the fight, he should have took the money he was offered. He didn't want the fight though, or believe enough in himself to win. He priced himself out of the picture when he brought nothing to the table.
Wow, even social media popular UFC stars like Sean O'Malley are so underpaid that they have to turn to cross-promotion boxing.
In what way is Sean underpaid?
How do know Sean is underpaid? Was Conor underpaid too?
Sean gets paid plenty, ufc literally put his sponsor on the canvas, they literally don’t do that for anyone. He’s just a smart business man and knows that if he could make a boxing fight happen, it would raise his popularity and future opportunities
@@SyringeSemCompared to boxers, UFC fighters are paid peanuts.

Devin is undisputed champion for a reason.
"25% take it or leave it" is so Tyson Fury 😂
Fury never been undisputed.
facts. shakur would bring in at least 40/60 worth of attention. haney offered him 25 cause he knew that’s a ridiculous offer and he wouldn’t have to fight him
@@boxingwithshawn what did I say that wasn't real? Fury got ONE belt, not ALL OF THEM
@@GotchYoAss it doesn't work that way. You cant bring nothing to the table and expect 40%. If they both had 1 belt, 40/60 Haney is fair. But haney got 4 belts, and just fought Loma.... Shakur got nothing and expects even split or even 40%??? Get real. 25% is exactly what he worth.

Boxing is one art. Mma is multiple and in the name. (Mixed martial arts)
Props devin
Haney basically boosted up Loma, and even added to his injury excuse when he lost to Teo, just to make his win justified. That is guilt in of it self. Loma won that fight
Loma got his ass beat, Haney was more accurate and precise throughout the whole fight.
And thats your opinion alot of people disagree, it was a close fight and Haney got the nod, simple. Its not like loma dominated the entire fight and lost bruh.
Nah he saying that because teo and his dad keep saying Loma won so he tryna dimish his win also
Is this the guy that ducks Gervonta Davis?
Yes
Holds himself well.
Pips did good job..
Can tell good kid
You know.. I did think Loma beat him, but Haney is still a very good champion. His upcoming fight with Prograis is not an easy fight. His style isn’t really my favorite, however, I do believe he is really about being great and making his mark.
Stepping out of Floyds shadow and doing his own thing has worked well for Devin. Cool kid, great fighter.
he aint fully stepped out tho bc he sounds and talks EXACTLYY like Floyd😂😂
Shakur is the stereotype of brute no brains boxer, how you trying to dictate terms when you have no leverage?
The undisputed champion stipulates the terms, if you are confident you can beat him accept the terms and fight him 🦆
clueless
That’s my guy💯
What about Shakur going through the wbc for the mandatory?I just wanted to see what devin would say
