Mike Tyson Weighs In On Devin Haney's Latest Win: "Not What I Expected"

Haney moved his professional record to 32-0 with the win. He dominated the former unified super-lightweight champion Ramirez over 12 rounds. The judges' scorecards reflected Haney's control of the fight.

This victory came after a tumultuous period for Haney. His previous bout against Ryan Garcia in April 2024 initially ended in a points loss for Haney, who was dropped three times. The result was later changed to a no contest when Garcia tested positive for a banned substance.

Haney's performance against Ramirez was nothing short of dominant. Ramirez struggled to land clean shots throughout the fight, with Haney's defense and footwork proving too much for the former champion.

Former undisputed heavyweight world champion Mike Tyson, who was at ringside as a commentator, shared his thoughts on the DAZN post-fight broadcast.

"Haney did his thing tonight. He wasn't a match at all. He didn't win a round at all. He was in great shape."

Tyson admitted the fight wasn't the most entertaining spectacle due to Haney's dominance, but he praised the young fighter's performance.

"I know he's confident after this fight. Willing to fight whoever's next."

The path forward for Haney isn't clear cut. A rematch with Ryan Garcia seems less likely now, as Garcia lost to Rolando Romero on the same card. Haney's team will need to carefully consider their next move as they look to capitalize on this impressive comeback victory.
