Devin Haney Subestima Brian Norman?

New York – Devin Haney and Brian Norman Jr. They attended the Ring IV press conference in New York last weekend and the day before the press, they had an altercation that went viral on social media. The video shows Haney’s bodyguard putting hands on Norman and his team. At the press conference, they were less hostile, but the tension was still there.

This will be Devin’s first struggle in Welterweight, and has chosen a fight against hard Norman. “ I think it is unilateral. I will go into it and to decrease it. I know that it has power. We all know that they have power, but against the boys we have never seen before. We have never heard of these guys.This, I will prove that, the power is good.The muscle is good.It is a muscle. He has had a lot of muscles you have it, I will show him, ”

Although Devin may not admit it, he could choose to use a strategy similar to the one he used against Jose Ramírez, using a constant lateral movement to evade punches. This would minimize his exposure to Norman’s power. Devin won the game against Ramirez, but it was not a favorable struggle for fans. Many were disappointed with the representation.

Shakur Stevenson, who has also received similar criticism in the past, decided to participate more against William Zepeda this past Saturday, making a very entertaining game. Turki Alralikh trolished carrying a Tom and Jerry hat on the ring, as it was Turki who stated that Riyadh’s season would no longer support this type of fights. Shakur won the game but caused more damage than he usually takes. Zepeda landed 272 punches, which is the most landed by a Stevenson rival.

Haney will try to achieve a healthy balance of movement in and out to make the struggle aesthetically pleasant and not expose to unnecessary punishments. Devin may, however, be underestimating Wbo heavy weight champion, believing that he is not as skilled as he is.

“No matter. I am levels above this type, no matter how weight we get it to 140, 145, 143, 147. I don’t matter. I’m above it,” Haney said when he asked him about his transfer to heavy weight. This is Devin’s first struggle in 147, a weight with larger punches, and fights against one of the greatest punches in the division, Brian.

It could be a mistake to think that Norman is not able to be competitive against him. The last opponent Haney underestimated was Ryan Garcia, and although the result of this party was annulled, giving Norman the opportunity to disembark similar punches to Ryan’s terrified could be expensive. The best thing to do would be to respect Norman’s ability and not to think that it is easily baptized.

The party is the co-Main event of the Ring IV card established for November 22 in Saudi Arabia. The stacked card will have the following matches:

• David Benavidez vs. Anthony Yarde
• Devin Haney vs Brian Norman Jr.
• Abdullah Mason vs. Sam Noakes
• Jesse Rodriguez vs Fernando Martinez
