“Hasn’t Beaten Anybody at The Top” – Devin Haney On Gervonta Davis and Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero’s Performance

Devin Haney has become the talk of the boxing world after his victory over George Kambosos Jr. cementing himself as the first lightweight champion to hold all four belts in over three decades. He outclassed Kambosos during the majority of the fight, earning him a unanimous decision victory. Moreover, he handed the Australian the first loss of his career.

On the other hand, Gervonta Davis is also coming off an emphatic victory over Ronaldo Romero, knocking him out in the sixth round at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. With Haney now sitting on top of the division and Tank being one of the best contenders, it seems like there can be a potential match between the two.

Haney reacts to ‘Tank’s’ performance

‘The Dream’ recently made an appearance on The MMA Hour show hosted by Ariel Helwani, where he talked about his victory over Kambosos, future opponents, and more. And during a segment, Helwani asks Haney to share his thoughts on ‘Tank’s’ performance against Romero and the champ had this to say,

Haney then adds that he felt Romero only ever had a puncher’s chance against Davis, “so what did he have to make anybody feel like he could beat Tank besides a punch. I mean, when you’re at the top, everybody can punch. Everybody has powers.”

Devin Haney vs Gervonta Davis

After their victories, both men have gained a lot of acclaim and with them competing in the same division, a fight between the two might seem inevitable. Moreover, Davis has now decided to part ways with his former promoter Floyd Mayweather, and he will now be able to secure bigger fights as a free agent.

Haney on the other hand might have his hands full for some time, as he might have to face Kambosos once again. This is because of the rematch clause stipulated in their contract, although many fans feel that a rematch is unnecessary. As Haney was in control during the whole fight. But Kambosos is eager for a rematch and will probably enforce the clause. Moreover, Ryan Garcia’s promoter Oscar De La Hoya has also made a multi-million dollar offer for Davis to fight Garcia.
