Devin Haney dropped and defeated Regis Prograis by a shutout decision to take Prograis’ 140-pound title Saturday at Chase Center in San Francisco.
All three judges scored it 120-107, 12 rounds to none. Boxing Junkie had the same score.
Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) controlled the fight by controlling the distance, keeping Prograis at the end of his jab and and picking him apart with power shots.
A straight right hand to the head put Prograis down in the third round.
Prograis (29-2, 24 KOs) never stopped trying but simply couldn’t get close enough to Haney to hit him with any consistency, which resulted in a one-sided fight.
Haney, the former undisputed 135-pound champion, is now a two-division titleholder.
Prograis has lost a major belt for a second time.
