Devin Haney crawled out of the woodwork tonight to kick a person whereas he was down, trashing Regis Prograis after his 12-round unanimous resolution defeat towards Jack Catterall on the Co-op Dwell Area in Manchester, England.

Haney appeared to take problem with Prograis (29-3, 24 KOs) graciously telling Catterall (30-1, 13 KOs) that he’s “the perfect” he’s fought throughout his profession and saying he deserves a world title shot now.
That stylish remark from the previous WBA and WBC 140-lb champion Prograis precipitated a response from Haney, who roasted him on X, saying that he “ruined” Prograis along with his win over him final yr on December ninth on the Chase Heart in San Francisco, California.
Boxing followers imagine that Ryan Garcia ruined Haney, who hasn’t fought since and will by no means be the identical after the best way he was dominated of their struggle on April twentieth.
Haney received a one-sided 12-round unanimous resolution with the scores 120-107 x 3, but it surely was an unpleasant win involving a whole lot of holding and working on his half. It was so boring to look at, and much more so than Catterall’s win tonight, which had a Shakur-esque high quality to it. The distinction is that Catterall is only a blue-collar man from the UK.
Catterall confirmed some uncommon energy tonight, dropping the 35-year-old Prograis twice in spherical 9 and placing him on the defensive within the closing three rounds. Within the twelfth, Prograis tried to throw a homerun bail-out punch, lacking badly and falling on the canvas face-first.
The scores have been 117-108, 116-109, and 116-109. Prograis’ defeat may finish his profession. He didn’t make a retirement announcement, but it surely’s believed that he may select to retire.
“I believe Jack is the perfect I fought,” stated Prograis to DAZN after his loss tonight towards Jack Catterall. “I had my time within the solar. It’s time to show it over to him. Actually good, Jack. I fought the perfect of them. You have been the perfect up to now.”
