Coach Buddy McGirt mentions that Devin Haney should be perfect for him to defeat WBO swelling champion Brian Norman Jr., in their fight on November 22 in Riyadh.
McGirt warns against one -off danger
McGirt says the former world champion of two divisions, Haney (32-0, 16 COs), should be in progress “All 12 cylinders” Because Norman jr. (28-0, 22 COs) ‘One punch’ force. He does not have to land combinations to strike his opponents.
Norman jr. Can ruin Haney’s career, knock him out and finish what Ryan Garcia started last year in the discount he administered to him. Despite dropping Haney three times, Ryan couldn’t finish him because of his poor endurance. If Norman Haney hurts, he is a wonderful finish and will probably end it quickly.
To know how powerful Norman jr. Is, it is only surprising that Haney agreed to fight against him. Haney must have felt a kind of way when Turki Alalshikh offered him an opponent.
Haney vs. Norman jr. Fight on November 22 in the Co-Feature lock on the David Banavidez against Anthony Yarde card on the Anb Arena in Riyadh. The event is displayed directly on Dazn PPV.
Buddy McGirt’s technical exposition of the match
‘All 12 cylinders. You fight against a larger man. He has a knockout force with one punch. Norman doesn’t need a combination to get you away there, ‘said coach Buddy McGirt said Millcity Boxing About Devin Haney should be perfect if he against Brian Norman Jr. on November 22. “So Haney must walk on all cylinders.”
Haney has little choice than fighting in the same way he did in his last competition against Jose Ramirez. He will literally have to flee the whole battle to prevent Norman Jr. from being cut, because this man is a murderous puncher with any hand.
Turki Alalshikh came out with his No Tom and Jerry mandate to the Fatal Fury event on May 2, 2025 in New York. It was the one that Haney became a classic definition of a Jerry-Esque performance by keeping the whole battle going and trying not to be hit by former WBC and WBO Light Welterweight Champion Ramirez.
Devin Haney’s tactical keys against Norman Jr.
“Everything has to be on the point. Offense, defense, foot movement and head movement. Everything has to work that night. He can’t guess anything second. You can’t do this against a man like Norman. He will wait. I saw him hit this man, and I’m like ‘Holy S ***. Damn ‘, “says McGirt about Giovani Santillan.
Devin delayed the threat level of Norman Jr. and said he didn’t know any of the guys he fought. At the same time, he talked about his experience against top-level fighters. Haney does have an advantage in that arena. But not that big of one. The majority of the top fighters that Haney fought were past their lead. These are some of the faded fighters who fought Devin:
- Jose Ramirez
- Vasily lomachenko
- Director gamboa
- King or Prograis
- Joseph Diaz
- Jorge Linares
- Juan Carlos Burgos
Wood’s point of view: Why Haney should run on all cylinders
With how fragile Devin looked at Ryan Garcia, he must be close to him to prevent Norman Jr. be blown by Norman JR and blown by Norman JR to the Andromeda galaxy.
Haney looked spiritually in his last fight against Jose Ramirez, who apparently has to do with war star flashes of the bad experience he had against Ryan. The way Devin fought against Ramirez, he will not be able to rally himself for the Norman Jr. -beste.
As such, I see that Haney runs all over the ring, and Turki Alalshikh dropped in the front row and regretted using him for this opportunity. It is not enough for Turki to remind the fighters not to set up a Tom and Jerry performance. It is only baked in Haney of the ordeal against Kingry.
