In boxing, where rivalries run deep and words sting as much as punches, the stage is set for yet another verbal showdown. Devin Haney and Shakur Stevenson, the sport’s new poster boys for drama, are trading more than just jabs. And in the middle of it all? Former World Champion Shane Mosley, dropping remarks that are making everyone sit up.

Remember when the essence of boxing was about the fight in the ring? Mosley’s recent comments about a certain offer might just challenge that very essence. An offer, a refusal, and a pot-stirring Twitter spree. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? But there’s something odd about this feud.

Shane Mosley weighs in: Shakur Stevenson, Devin Haney, and the fight over 25%

In the pulsating world of boxing, negotiations are as thrilling as the matches themselves. The latest sensation? The ongoing tiff between Devin Haney and Shakur Stevenson. The heart of this drama centers on a crucial offer—Haney extending a 25% cut to Stevenson for a potential face-off in the ring.

Just when fans were holding their breath for Stevenson’s response, he made his stance crystal clear by turning down the proposal. As the anticipation grew, the plot thickened. But the scenario took an even more interesting turn during an interview with former world champion, Shane Mosley.

Asked about his take on the situation, Mosley didn’t hold back. “Ya that means Haney doesn’t wanna fight,” he remarked. “C’mon now, stop it! You know what type of fighter he is. That’s a move you make when you’re avoiding the ring. I, for one, wouldn’t have been deterred by such an offer. Let’s be real; business shouldn’t eclipse the actual fight.”

As word of Mosley’s views spread, the undercurrents of tension between Haney and Stevenson grew palpably stronger. The two gladiators took to Twitter, using it as their battleground. While Haney aggressively urged Stevenson to put pen to paper, Stevenson was relentless in highlighting the inadequacy of the offer, feeling it didn’t truly reflect his worth.

Bill Haney speaks out: The logic behind the 75/25 purse split controversy

Bill Haney, the guiding voice behind his son’s boxing career, has come forward to shed light on the ongoing purse split debate that’s taken the boxing world by storm. Initially proposing a 75-25 split favoring Devin Haney, Bill explained the rationale, emphasizing that it’s rare for an undisputed champion to offer a 50-50 split to a challenger. Drawing upon historical boxing traditions and norms, he said, “There’s no precedent when you’re an undisputed champion and you give 50/50 to the challenger.”

As Bill Haney’s comments permeate the boxing fraternity, reactions are diverse. While many echo his sentiments, praising Haney for his undisputed championship status, others champion Stevenson for his undeniable skill and market appeal.
