The old fox, Bill Haney, was in the Henhouse today, on a screening mission at the Richardson Hitchins gym before his defense of his Welter Léger IBF weight title against George Kambosos Jr. on June 14 at the Madison Square Garden theater in New York. Bill claims that he was on vacation, but now he is back, identifying competition, storing knowledge for future opponents for his son, Devin Haney, to fight.
Haney needs a solid victory to make fans forget his shy performances against Jose Ramirez on the map of May 2. The fight that Bill and Devin thought they were going to get against Ryan Garcia for October seems to have increased in smoke because of the way they played on the Times Squad card. However, Hitchins is not the opponent that Haney needs to regain his credibility. He needs someone like Brian Norman Jr, Jaron Ennis or Shakhram Giyasov.
Bill Haney: screening mission
Hitchins (19-0, 7 KB) fights one of the Devin victims, Kambosos Jr. (22-3, 10 KB), which he defeated twice in 2022 to become the undisputed lightweight champion. It was Haney’s best victory in career, and he couldn’t get it in his three fights since.
In a highly criticized decision, Richardson refused a fight against the former IBF champion of 140 LB SUBRIEL MATIAS in favor of a fight against kambosos. The praises that Hitchins briefly obtained for defeating Liam Paro to win the title of the IBF last December evaporated during the night after having rejected the fight against Matias. Fans have seen him as a duck, which is a fairly precise view. When you refuse a fight against subriel in favor of 2-3 kambosos, there is no other way to interpret the movement.
Hitchins was difficult to try to build the name of Kambosos to make it more credible in the eyes of the public. He almost seems to be the promoter of Kambosos with the glazing he made.
Richardson Hitchins: “No, he doesn’t want to do this,” said Hitchins Combination When he was told that he had heard that Devin Haney wanted to return to 140. “Since I became [IBF light welterweight] Champion, Haney brought the F *** out of there. »»
Bill Haney: “I’m going to tell you one thing. I was on vacation, but now I’m back to work. I exceed. Yeah, I go beyond the champion [Hitchins]. “”
Hitchins: “June 14, I’m going to show him what her son [Devin] should have done to George Kambosos. What he did was cool, boxing and whatever. What I’m going to do to one of her son’s best victories, it’s going to be mean. We are going to wake him up with this fight, “said Hitchins when the Times square card in New York said Haney fought was” boring “.
Bill: “Be just careful. Eat easily, eat intelligently because the kambosos are not easy to chew. Devin made it look like. Kambosos is a good fighter. I expect a good match between two extremely talented fighters, and I’m going to be there and I’m going to watch. But I’m doing the screening right now.”
