Coach Abel Sanchez says Jose Ramirez will show fans that Devin Haney is “where he thinks he is” talent wise when they fight on May 2 in a welterweight attack on superstar Ryan Garcia’s bottom map at Times Square in New York.
Sanchez predicts that the former WBC and WBO Light Welterweight Champion Ramirez (29-2, 18 COs) will make it very difficult for Haney (31-0, 15 COs) with his experience, high work rate and pressure.
He does not exclude an upset victory for 32-year-old Ramirez as his coach, Robert Garcia, has a good game plan to follow. However, Abel expects Haney to win the battle. Ramirez is brought in as a set opponent, although a dangerous one for Devin.
Haney’s discharge
Haney comes from a one-year disaster and a bad result in a 12-round decision loss to Ryan Garcia in April. We do not know if the loss of Haney’s punching resistance has permanently influenced because he was injured with everything Ryan threw from the first round. If there are long -lasting consequences, Ramirez will utilize it.
“It’s a wonderful struggle, and Jose is going to show us that Devin is not where he thinks he is,” Abel Sanchez said Fight Hub TV About the Devin Haney against Jose Ramirez fight on May 2. “Devin is going to beat Jose, but he’s going to give him the type of battle Devin doesn’t expect.”
Haney’s inactivity indicates that he knows he is not what he initially thought he was. His loss of Ryan Garcia last April was a real humble Experience that took something out of his self -belief. If a fighter failed as Devin did, they couldn’t forget what happened.
Haney has probably played the memory of that fight over the past eleven months. If he has not taken An ego hitHe would have returned to the ring now, because he would continue to make the good money he had before his loss of Ryan.
“I don’t think the fight with Ryan is going to affect him. Yes, he (Haney) may not take the best shot, but Ryan hits hard. I think he will achieve a little more work on his and his defense. But I think Jose will give him a hard time. I think he will give him the type of battle he (Arnold) gave Barboza. “
The shots that Ramirez ended up on Barboza on November 16 last year in Riyadh on Barboza would harm Haney, and it is doubtful that he could hit them three or four times.
Bombing
Ramirez is not as fast as Ryan, but his push still packs a wall. What makes it harder to take is the constant bombing. He uses a B-29 Superfores Carpet bombing approach In his fights, and it’s hard to take. For a fighter with a glass kin like Haney, he won’t last under Jose Ramirez’s constant bombing for a long time. If the chin has not improved, Devin will not last on May 2. Ramirez will swing to the fences with each shot, and in search of the cracks in Haney’s armor.
“He’ll just show Devin that he’s not what he thinks he’s. He is perhaps one day, but not at this point. He is not at a Gvonta, Shakur or Lamont level, but he may be at some point. I think it will (Ramirez’s coach) go Robert (Garcia).
“When he watched this last battle with Rayo and Russell, he fought. I think Robert will think about how he attacks Haney with Ramirez. Ramirez is a better fighter than Rayo. More experienced, I would say.
‘If Robert works it out and puts together a good game plan that Ramirez can follow, you can have it (a knockout victory for Jose about Haney). I still think Devin wins a decision. A close decision, but a decision, ”says Abel.
