Devin Haney vs. Regis Prograis - Teddy Atlas makes his predictionEd Mulholland/Matchroom
A big fight takes place this weekend.

Regis Prograis and Devin Haney will finally clash in a fascinating encounter this weekend with the former’s WBC super-lightweight title on the line.  

The challenger, who will enjoy home advantage in San Francisco, begins the fight a decent favourite and Teddy Atlas believes that Haney will get the job done. 

Haney enters the bout on the back of a controversial victory over Vasiliy Lomachenko earlier this year where many believed the Ukrainian should've got the win.  

Eager to prove a point, Haney can become a two-weight world champion against Prograis and after looking to stand and fight with Lomachenko, Atlas believes Haney will box against the champion. 

“I think that Prograis will be forced to come to him,” said Atlas when speaking on the fight to ProBox TV

“Haney will do his thing, pot-shot, counter-punch, box brilliantly and give a lesson in the sweet science, boxing 101.”
