Romero Rules Out Haney Fight

Rolando Romero has no interest in fighting Devin Haney after his recent Ryan Garcia win. 

Romero pulled off the biggest win of his career by stunning Garcia via unanimous decision: 115-112, 115-112, and 118-109. The victory earned Romero the WBA Regular Welterweight Title — and a potential shot at full champion Jaron Ennis. Romero’s next move is unclear, but he has said he wants Garcia to rematch Haney. Romero ruled out boxing Haney after the latter’s win over Jose Ramirez. Haney was heavily criticized for the manner of his win, as his fight produced the fifth-lowest number of punches thrown according to CompuBox. 

“Haney wasn’t a big fight to begin with. He wasn’t a big fight when he fought Ryan. And he’s definitely not a big fight after he just became a track star…Devin Haney had one exciting fight and that’s when he got his ass beat by Ryan Garcia. You know as a father, right, as his father I just felt like he needed a hug in that moment. I feel like he’s been shattered and it just takes a while to come back from that. And I feel like he just needs love again,” Romero said
