Will Lomachenko wait? Stevenson and Haney’s father agreed to fight

Bill Haney, father/coach of American undisputed lightweight champion Devin Haney (29-0, 15 KOs), does not hide the fact that he considers the most dangerous opponent in the division not at all a veteran from Ukraine, Vasyl Lomachenko (17-2, 11 KOs), but a compatriot Shakur Stevenson (19-0, 9 KOs).

haney father even
proposed Shakur to replace Lomachenko. He is delighted with the offer.

Haney (X): You’re the second scariest motherfucker in the division, right?

Stevenson (C): No, I’m just the scariest motherfucker in the lightweight division.

X: For now, this place is ours. But if you want to get ahead of Lomachenko and try to prove it in practice… We have all the titles. Devin is king now. Even if you’re the scariest motherfucker in the division, he’s the king. But if the most terrible motherfucker says: “Lomachenko, step aside!” How can we stop him in this case?

FROM: Cool. Let’s do that.

X: Sure, not a problem!

FROM: And what, so it was possible? I thought I should fight “Pitbull” Cruz first for the mandatory challenger. But if you can really push Lomachenko aside and give me a fight, then I will accept him.

X: I’m telling you, Lomachenko is not a mandatory challenger. And he never was.

FROM: I understood, but everything looked as if the promotion had already begun. You have chosen it.

X: Dude, all you have to do is go to Top Rank and demand that they make this fight next. That’s all.

FROM: We can do it together. So that they can see that these are not only my Wishlist.

X: Do not worry. I already told them about it. Said the best should fight the best. And Devin never said Lomachenko was stronger than you. We need the strongest opponent. And it’s you. So if you agree to go to the fight, then we can arrange it. I told them so.

FROM: Received. I think we heard each other. Right from here I will go to my manager James Prince and I will say, referring to your words, that we can get ahead of Lomachenko and make the fight. Sorryan, I didn’t know that. I was constantly told that at first Devin was against Vasily. I thought it was already agreed. So I didn’t even insist or offer myself. Devin has all the titles, so it’s only fair that you choose your opponent.

X: In fact, we do not decide at all. We went into the ring to Lomachenko. And he did not dare to do the same. He even said in the ring that Devin is as big as a heavyweight…

In the meantime, they say that the Lomachenko-Haney fight will soon be announced. It is possible that Bill is simply trying to make the Ukrainian side a little more accommodating. The former undisputed champion in this weight believes that Haney is too smart for Lomachenko.
