The American boxer spoke about his next fight and plans for the near future.

Devin Haney got tired of boxing in the lightweight division, which is why he gave up the title of absolute world champion. An American boxer spoke about it.

According to him, he didn’t even think twice when he rejected the title of absolute champion, because he wanted new challenges for himself.

“It was only a matter of time. You see, I had 30 fights in the lightweight division. This is an exorbitant number. This is not even talked about, super heavyweight is a different matter. So now the time has come for me . went up to the first welterweight division. And after this weight I had my eye on another category.

Once I win the Regis Prograis match, we’ll talk about the future. So this time I don’t have to hold on to the belts,” Haney told The Ring.

We remind you that Haney will fight his next fight on December 9 against WBC junior welterweight champion Regis Prograis.

Let’s remember that Haney previously weighed in on his last lightweight fight against Lomachenko.
