Popular trainer and TV presenter Teddy Atlas often shares his colorful opinions with the public. This time the American spoke about the lightweight king Devina Haney (29-0, 15 KOs), who won for the second time last week George Kambosos (20-2, 10 KOs). Atlas was not a big fan of the champion in his time, but today he praises him very much.
“I want to see Haney fight the rest of the top lightweights. His performance in the rematch with Kambosos confirmed that a world title often makes boxers better. Haney is more confident today and fights more smoothly and solidly. Better than before. He has excellent distance control and makes quick and accurate combos,” says Atlas.
“It’s nice to look at Heini, it’s like a concert at the Philharmonic. Everything works in harmony. It has its own rhythm and flow. Mechta is a classic boxer and he fights impressively. His fights with Ryan Garcia, Gervonta Davis, Teofimo Lopez or Vasily Lomachenko will be great,” added the charismatic specialist.
