Devin Haney Announces Readiness to Move Up to Welterweight

WBC champion in the light welterweight division, Devin Haney, has announced his readiness to change weight classes and move up to the welterweight division.

Quote: "Ultimately, I fought an opponent who was on doping. Fans want to see what Devin Haney is capable of, and on May 2nd, I will answer all the questions.

Obviously, it's time to move up to welterweight. My body is maturing, and making the 140-pound limit is becoming more difficult. In one fight I felt great, but in the next one — much worse," said Devin.

On May 2nd in New York, at Times Square, Haney will step into the ring against Jose Ramirez. The bout could take place either at a catchweight (65.3 kg) or in the full welterweight category with a limit of 66.7 kg.

Reminder: Earlier, Dillian Whyte shared how he sustained an injury before his fight with Joe Joyce.
