Devin Haney says he will use the aggressive pressure style Jose Ramirez uses against him if they meet on May 2 in their catching weight fight of 144 pounds, on the welter weight on Times Square in New York.
In accordance with Haney’s fighting against pressure fighters, he will use these tactics to handle former WBC and WBO lights of Welterweight Champion Ramirez’s pressure:
– Regular Clinic
– Jabbing
– move
– Stay low as your bumps throw
– wrestle
These are all the instruments that led Haney to beat Regis Prograis, and allowed him not to be knocked out by Ryan Garcia.
Must-win scenario
Haney says he has to win this fight against Ramirez to get the re -broadcast with Ryan Garcia. If true, Devin will have a lot of pressure on his shoulders. It’s hard to believe that Haney still won’t get the re -broadcast with Ryan if he loses this battle. If we assume that it is really a must-win battle for Haney, it is incredible that he has agreed to it.
I just wonder how his father, Bill Haney, will handle it. He will have kittens and watch Devin struggle against Ramirez. That big money fight against Ryan riding the outcome of this battle. Bill will be a nervous wreckage.
Potential for ugly
It can be a very ugly battle if Ramirez (29-2, 18 COs) does not know how to deal with these negative instruments that Haney will use to deny his pressure. Jose has the power to complete Ryan Garcia in April last year against Haney when he dropped him three times.
The only question is, he can come to him to land without holding, holding and killing. If there is a good referee, he will force Haney to fight with warning and take points, but that probably won’t happen. Even Haney did not fight Garcia, Ramirez is a difficult battle for him with his fragile knowing.
These are tactics that the former World Champion of two divisions used effectively (31-0, 15 COs) in his most difficult battles of his career against Ryan Garcia, Vasily Lomachenko, Regrais and Jorge Linares. The clinic that Devin used against Ryan and Kambosos probably should have led to points being deducted, but the referees chose not to do anything about it.
“He is a robust opponent. He is not an easy battle on paper, but it is for me to make the fight easy, ‘Devin Haney says Ring magazine About his May 2nddown against the former WBC and WBO Light Welterweight Champion Jose Ramirez.
“I want to use his weaknesses against him, use his pressure against him. We know he’s coming there to push, ”Haney continued on Ramirez. “Just show all my skills against a tough fighter who comes forward to show the world, I’m an even better Devin Haney than me.
“If I don’t win this battle, I don’t get to those battles (Theofimo Lopez, Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero and Ryan Garcia), especially the Ryan struggle,” Haney said.
