Devin Haney Wants To Showcase Versatility Against Vasiliy Lomachenko: “There’s Nothing That I Can’t Do”
Undefeated, undisputed lightweight champion, Devin Haney, is planning on showcasing his entire repertoire against former unified champ, Vasiliy Lomachenko.
Haney spoke with ESPN media personality Stephen A. Smith on his show First Take on Wednesday morning ahead of his showdown with Lomachenko this weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada, and explained why he’s confident in his abilities, despite what any of his detractors may still say.
“I’m the best fighter in the world, point blank, period,” Haney said (h/t Bad Left Hook). “Undisputed for a reason. I’m taking on the toughest tasks one by one, keep lining them up and I’ll keep beating them, knocking them down. I bring everything to the table and anybody that say anything about power, when they get in the ring with me it’s something different. And I will show it on Saturday night. I will show another aspect of my game, and I’m excited for it. I want the fans to tune in because it’s going to be a fun night for me and my team. There’s nothing that I can’t do, that’s why it’s hard for me to say one thing (that defines me in the ring). There’s nothing I can’t do, I bring it all to the table. I’m a young vet in the game, student of the game, that can do it all. And I will show on Saturday night all my attributes. I’m bringing my toolbox, I’m bringing out all the tools and I can’t wait.”
