He\u2019s still moving towards, you realize what I mean, <strong>the Mount Rushmore boxer. He\u2019s still growing,\u201d<\/strong> said Bill to MillCity Boxing.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Haney also shared a positive view of Zuffa\u2019s arrival in boxing, suggesting additional platforms can only profit fighters seeking to construct their careers.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a platform that a fighter can go over, and that\u2019s really like that, they usually are really listening to their coach, and their coach is basically taking a look at every thing. I mean, it\u2019s a fantastic opportunity, man,\u201d said Bill.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While critics proceed to debate Devin Haney\u2019s place among the many sport\u2019s elite, Bill believes his accomplishments have already secured a spot amongst boxing\u2019s most completed fighters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, I mean it will must be difficult that once you discuss with other Hall of Fame fighters, they usually say that Devin is a Hall of Famer, they usually say that you simply\u2019re not right. You never hear Hall of Fame together with his game,\u201d said Bill.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI feel once they realize and once they sit back, they would really like to have a profession that Devin has had.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Haney\u2019s comments come as Devin continues to weigh his next move in a loaded welterweight division, with several high-profile fights potentially available as boxing\u2019s promotional landscape continues to evolve.<\/p>\n<div class=\"perfmatters-lazy-video\" data-provider=\"youtube\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Xb4hvxAH6lI\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Xb4hvxAH6lI\" data-query=\"feature=oembed\" data-referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" onclick=\"perfmattersLazyLoadVideo(this);\">\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Youtube video\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" nopin=\"nopin\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/Xb4hvxAH6lI\/hqdefault.jpg\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sabox-authors\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-wrap\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"author\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-tab saboxplugin-tab-about\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-desc\">\n<div itemprop=\"description\">\n<p data-start=\"182\" data-end=\"497\">Dan Ambrose is a boxing journalist at Boxing News 24, recognized for his direct evaluation and extensive coverage of the worldwide fight landscape.
