    Only Reason it's a Sellout is Because Dev is FROM the Bay Area, Where the Bout is Being Held...Even Andre Ward Packed NICE Crowds In the Bay Area, But Like Dev, He Wasn't a Certified Draw Either...An Undefeated, World Class, Championship Level Fighter SHOULD Generate a Nice HOME Crowd, if NATHAN Else...

    Say What You Want About Shakur Stevenson, Even HE Packs the House in His Hometown of Newark, NJ...

    Dev is "Popular" Because of Social Media, Yet He's Not a LEGIT Draw, If That Makes Sense...

    It's Because Dev and His Daddy, Dollar Bill Haney, Talk and Hurl THREATS Like He's Some Tysonesque KILLER In the Ring...It's Because Dev and His Daddy, Dollar Bill Haney, Insist on PERPETUATING a "Hood" Image, When it's Fairly Obvious Dev AIN'T That Dude...

    The Quest for "Street Cred" Is Rooted in INSECURITY and IMMATURITY, Which Makes it Sad That Dollar Bill is as GUILTY of Playing That Card as His Son Is...

    You have to think some of Haney’s ‘popularity’ is people wanting to seem him get KO’d so they show up for the fight. After seeing him go all baby-deer-legged against Linares there is legitimate hope for it.

    Where do you "hear" these things from? Because I'm observing that you make your own blanket generalizations and claim you "heard" them from somewhere.

    Being ghetto, despite what you may think, isn't glorified. If anything, like REED said, Haney is disliked for being tooooo ghetto.

    Tank at least has an excuse because he actually is from the gutter. Haney didn't grow up like that.

    He's the boxing Ja Morant.

    Disagreed. A good portion of young fans like ''ghetto fighter''. Which is why a total bum like Kimbo Slice became such a huge draw. Doesnt work when it seems forced, and whith Haney, it's clear as water that he's not a hood guy

    There is that. Like Reed explained, him and his father have done a good job at playing the heel and I can see how some people would want to pay to see Haney lose. This is very similar to how many paid to see Floyd lose. Haney is not a big puncher by any means. His fights are not boring but not exciting either. But at the end of the day he's racking up those wins. Can't argue with that.

    One of my favorite boxing channels mentioned something about that. And from reading the comments everyone seems to agree that Haney puts up this front like he's from the ghetto when in reality he grew up in a nice neighborhood. I agree with you I see that as a blessing that his parents were able to afford to give Haney a nice upbringing. In my opinion that's a positive thing. I just think that the people that hate Haney are people that are annoyed with his fake thug facade.

    I don't dislike him because of his fake thug persona. I find that he's arrogant in a dislikable way.

    I give credit where credit's due though. He is willing to fight top guys. The belief that he has in himself is commendable. It's more than I can say for Tank's bitch ass.

    Lol that's pretty much my thoughts. For a guy that has very little power he has a lot of confidence. I just feel that as he moves up in weight the lack of power will hurt him against those big puncher's at 140 and 147.

    It's fight day. Because Devin Haney is involved, you know there's gonna be some violence tonight!

    But for real, I ordered it. Looking forward to seeing how it plays out.

    Hopefully it will be a good card and worth the 70 bucks. You remember the days when good fights were $49.99 I miss those days when you got value. Even Tyson fights weren't 70 bucks.
