Haney looked good for rounds 2-5 and then looked wack. Stayed trying to set something up and never pulling the trigger. Didn't even keep working the jab the entire second half of the fight. Lost a good 4rounds in a row from pure inactivity. The majority of the fight was awkward tie ups with neither fighter knowing how to work on the inside. They should have watched Bam fight and taken notes

Bam is top5 p4p. If i was to go full overreaction i would say as of today and going forward he is only 2nd to bud. But ill give respect to inoue and usyk

Haney is a very good fighter. If we had more guys with bis mentality boxing would be in a better place at the 135-147 divisions. Still think he left some work out there but he dictated the fight ans showed its levels.

Benavidez is a machine, boxing needs more guys like him as well. Canelo ducking? No problem go fight other top opponents in the division then move up fight for a belt…Go for bivol, that fight falls thru? Ok no problem no sitting around begging go fight a solid opponent. And now going up to cruiser to fight the champion. No waiting around or begging, try to fight the top guys and if they duck or it falls thru then go create opportunities by any means
 
Haney said put some respect on my name. I was surprised to see him stand in the paint with Norman. Much respect to Haney. Way to bounce back after a poor performance in Time's Square and the Garcia beatdown.
But he didn’t. That’s not fighting in the pocket. Bam and Benevidez sat in the pocket, made their opponents miss and pay. Haney stayed just out of range all night and when he was in the pocket he tied up. Haney had one nice moment in the second and then only landed a couple nice jabs. He doesn’t stay in the kitchen ever. Don’t see how anyone enjoys that ****

Bam is ridiculous.
 
Def surprised by Haney. He neutralized Norman movement with jabs and tie up when Norman would get closer.

Norman could not engage with haney.that leaping left hook from norman was not there for him.

Don't get me wrong that bih did get boring. But Haney was darting Norman with that jab. Blood steady dripping from constantly getting touched.

Bam dance partner was moving like a robot, compared to how smooth like water bam was moving, effortlessly smooth.

The monster is the monster. not surprised there.

Abdullah put on a show good fight. Pure in the pocket fight.

my thoughts on the 'Ring IV' card this past weekend...

 
I was very close to saying this guy is the best fighter in the world while watching him.
If he wants undisputed, he needs to go ahead and dispose of Garcia, and move up to 118. He’s clearly unbeatable at 115.

Perhaps he fights Inou’s brother first. Bam will probably put on a show because he does it every fight.

Its early but i think abdullah best form will be at 140-147. Right now his offense is elite but that defense needs some work, and he has to start listening to his corner lol
