Bill Haney melts off ‘now battle’ -question about devin

Bill Haney did not want to hear the possibility that his son, Devin Haney’s fight against WBO welterweight champion Brian Norman Jr., would be in the ANB arena in Riyadh on November 22. He said he just wanted to think about Devin (32-0, 16 COs) who “dominate and control the entire competition”.

Norman jr. Was not built to be dominated

The fundamental problem is that no one Norman jr. (28-0, 22 COs) do not dominate. He is unbeaten, with one -time knockout in both hand, and it takes one shot and it is over.

Sasaki’s warning for memory loss

Norman’s last opponent, Jin Sasaki, allegedly lost memory about the end of their struggle after being beaten cold on June 19, 2025. “I can’t even remember that this title fight was decided,” Sasaki told the Japanese media.

“I want to think about Devin that goes in and dominates and controls every moment of the fight. Let’s think about it. Let’s imagine it. Let’s think about it, ‘Bill Haney told IceM Sports Mediaand when asked about the possibility that Devin Haney’s fight against Brian Norman Jr. On November 22 is a close one.

The moment Bill was asked about the possibility that Devin’s struggle with Norman Jr. A close one is, he looked like he was ready to throw a pass. He didn’t want to hear it, even if it was just a hypothetical.

Denial or defense mechanism?

You can say from Bill’s response to a simple question that he knows that this fight can go badly for Haney. He found Ryan Garcia last year on April 20, 2024 in his loss of three knots. Why is worked up?

If Bill really believes that Devin got this one in the bag, why did he blew a gasket? I’ve seen this way too many times. If someone responds like that, it is a sign that they do not believe that victory is possible.

As Norman jr. Connecting to the kind of shots he landed on his last opponent, Jin Sasaki, it will be over. Those blows were at a different level than the left brackets that Yan repeatedly used to drop Devin at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Bill step out, the interview ends

“Who did they (Norman jr.) Ever there was like Devin Haney? Let them think about it and work on it, and we’re going to be Devin Haney, and we’re going to shut down a **, ‘says Bill, getting angry and storm off.

Bill has just stepped out of the interview after commenting. He looked furious and left the interviewer speechless. All of this from just one simple hypothetical about what if it is a close fight against Norman Jr.

If Haney is knocked out by Norman like Sasaka, it is not the end of the world. He can always come back. With the right game he can rebuild, but of course it is best for him to forget about warrior weight. There are too many sharks in the division with power that would be pure shipponite.
