Devin Haney was a pup of only 20 when he took on Antonio Moran in May of last year in Oxon Hill, Maryland.
The fast-rising lightweight was making his main event debut on DAZN and he was hoping to make a strong impression. He did. Haney outboxed his overmatched opponent before ending the bout with a mammoth overhand right to Moran’s jaw that put him down and out at 2:32 of Round 7.
Less than four months later, while he was still 20, Haney stopped Zaur Abdullaev after four rounds to win an interim title and was soon elevated to full champion.
In this installment of DAZN’s Saturday Fight Live, Haney, now 21, and father/trainer/manager Bill Haney watch a video of the Moran fight and provide their commentary.
Here’s what father and son had to say.
