Devin Haney is about to enter the ring against Regis Prograis on December 9, and the whole world is here for it.

So, everyone speculated a clash between them, but nothing has come out of it quite yet. While appearing in a recent interview with Fight Hub TV, the 22-2 boxer called out Jermall Charlo while picking the winner for the upcoming Haney vs. Prograis fight.
