WBC super lightweight champion Regis Prograis has three reasons to beat Devin Haney this Saturday. Prograis is a two-time junior welterweight champion and brings a wealth of experience to the bout in San Francisco, which will be televised on DAZN and DAZN PPV. There are three reasons why Prograis believes he can beat Haney.
Experience: Prograis has 26 professional fights and Haney has 27 of his fights. Prograis is also fighting higher competition than Haney.
Performance: Prograis is a knockout artist, with 23 of his 26 wins coming by knockout. Haney is a more technical boxer, but doesn’t have the power of Prograis.
Hart: Prograis is a fighter who never gives up. He was knocked down many times throughout his career, but he always came back and won. Haney has never been taken down, but he was also never tested like he was in this game.
Prograis is confident he can overcome Haney’s youth and athleticism to retain his WBC super lightweight title. “I’m from another world,” Prograis told DAZN. “It’s physically impossible, and the other reason is not losing the belt and holding onto it.” Haney is also confident he can win this fight. “I’m ready for the challenge,” Haney said. “I’m going to prove to the world why I’m the best in this division.” A close battle is expected. Both fighters are extremely talented and on par.
However, Prograis’ experience, strength, and heart could give him the edge he needs to win the fight.
