Haney Vacates Lightweight Glory, Eyes Welterweight Crown!

Ring the bell for a major shift in the boxing world! Former absolute lightweight kingpin Devin Haney has announced he's vacating the lightweight titles, making his move as early as this December. Haney, ever the fighting spirit, boasts: "I've conquered every corner of the lightweight division. Top of my bout list? A clash with Gervonta Davis, but it seems like they're ducking out. The lightweight ring's gotten too small for me. It's time to duke it out in the welterweight class. I'm setting my sights on dominating a second weight class, then ascending to conquer a third." After delivering back-to-back beatdowns to George Kambosos, Haney solidified his reign as the undisputed lightweight champion.

This past August, Haney began his departure from the division by relinquishing the WBC belt, stepping into the 'champion on vacation' limelight. This status quickly earned him a ticket to compete for the WBC bantamweight title. Get ready for December 9, when Haney takes on Regis Prograis in a must-see matchup.

Had Haney clung to his titles, we would've seen Denis Berinchyk in the ring for the WBO belt. The IBF title bout between Vasiliy Lomachenko and George Kambosos is now scheduled for spring 2024.
