"The newly crowned WBC Super Lightweight world champion Devin Haney shared his impressions of the victory over Regis Prograis in the title fight.

Haney secured a win over his compatriot after 12 rounds by unanimous decision from the judges - 120-107, 120-107, 120-107. Throughout the bout, Devin dominated the ring, even managing to knock down Prograis in the third round."

“I did everything I said I was gonna do. I took (his left hand) away. Occasionally, I went into it to make him throw it and I’d counter it. Other than that, he tipped his left hand off.”

Knockdown? I hit him with a sharp right hand. I knew he had a habit and we capitalized off his habit of leaning in. At times, I wanted to go (for the knockout) and hit him with big shots, but my dad said, ‘Stay focused, stick to the game plan”, - quotes Haney badlefthook.com.

It was Haney's debut fight in the new weight category. Previously, the American competed in a lower weight division and relinquished his WBA, IBF, and WBO lightweight titles in favor of fighting Prograis.
