Tim Bradley says Devin Haney’s performance against Jose Ramirez last Friday at Times Square in New York was not boxing. He implies that Haney (32-0, 15 COs) has “Ptsv” Some of the trauma he experienced last year in his fight against Ryan Garcia, and it affects his ability to perform.

He noted that Haney’s change of how he was involved in the way he acted against Ramirez (29-3, 18 COs) last Friday. However, Bradley feels that Haney must still have forced himself to fight hard because he was paid millions for his fight.
His job is to “entertain” the fans, and he feels that he has failed in his mission. Although Haney did win with a unanimous 12 round decision, his punch production was low. He just threw 224 shots and landed 70.
The PTSD factor?
“Listen to me. I’m going to tell you something. PTSD is a real thing in boxing, ‘said Tim Bradley Fight Hub TV When asked if he believed that Devin Haney’s performance was worth the millions of dollars he paid last Friday night against Jose Ramirez.
It seemed that Haney had closed spiritually against Ramirez, showing avoidance behavior during his 12-round with Ramirez. Some fans would argue that it is a behavioral pattern of a former fat with PTSD. They get passive and lose the battle they had when they were on the battlefield.
The trauma of the exfoliation stays with them. Haney’s behavior looked somewhat like a person with PTSD. Of course, he is nowhere near the fighter he was in his last three fights against Ryan Garcia, Regrais and Vasily Lomachenko. Something has changed.
“However, this is the sore business. It is the absolute sore business, man, and you get millions of millions of dollars to give us a show. Not only to give us a show, but also to win and look good as possible. Looks as much as you can.
Haney may have forgotten that he needs to entertain, or maybe Bradley is correct about his belief that he shows signs of PTSD; He was incompetent. It is not something a person can control. The trauma causes flashbacks, and it is not something a person can just pull out by preparing themselves. It is impossible to reject them and be who they were before the traumatic event.
“It wasn’t boxing”
“So, with that said, do you feel that’s what Haney did? Do you feel that it was an excellent box? Do you feel that he boxes the ears from this man? In my book, he knows boxing, it wasn’t boxing, ‘Bradley says, letting the media know that he feels that Haney is running against Ramirez all night, rather than boxing.
What Haney did was not to box against Ramirez. It was actually running, and it was hard for the carefully selected VIP Dazn ppv. Haney reportedly made $ 10 million for the Ramirez fight, but it was not enough to take him risks.
