Devin Haney produced the biggest win of his career earlier this month when he retained his undisputed title status with a points win over Vasiliy Lomachenko.
Despite getting the nod of approval from the judges, Haney’s victory has been slightly soured with the bulk of the boxing industry believing he was fortunate to emerge with his titles.
Haney certainly had his moments in the bout and the contest was by no means a robbery, but it appears that the talented Ukrainian has left the bout with more credit than the man from Las Vegas.
How has this result impacted The DAZN Pound for Pound Rankings? With Haney occupying the number eight position on the list, the manner of his win, which was extremely tight, means that he remains in the same position.
Despite Lomachenko earning many plaudits for his performance, it was decided that he would not re-enter the ratings on the back of a loss.
