Orgo-Life the new way to the future Advertising by AdpathwaySergio Mora believes Devin Haney would have the edge over Keyshawn Davis if the two eventually meet, but the matchup is still far from becoming a reality despite the WBO ordering Haney to make the title defense.
Mora praised both fighters before giving Haney the nod based on his experience and ability to deliver in big fights.
“I love Keyshawn. I think he’s hard to beat. When he’s on point, no one can beat him,” Mora said to Fighthype. “Devin Haney has a better resume. Devin Haney, every time I think that he’s going to come up short, he surprises me. What he did with Brian Norman was incredible. I would have to edge out Haney because of that, because of the resume, because he keeps proving people wrong, because of that jab, because Davis is inconsistent. He can be red hot or he can be cold, but when he’s red hot, he’s pound for pound.”
While Mora offered his prediction, it’s unclear whether Haney and Keyshawn will ever share the ring.
The WBO has ordered Haney to defend his title against Keyshawn, but the bout still must be negotiated. A sanctioning body order does not guarantee a fight will happen, particularly when financial terms have yet to be discussed.
Bill Haney has spent the past week publicly pursuing bigger-money fights against Gervonta Davis and Shakur Stevenson, suggesting those remain the preferred options if they can be made. If neither materializes, Keyshawn could become the fallback choice, but even then, there is no assurance an agreement will be reached.
Haney’s proposed fight against Rolly Romero serves as a recent reminder that negotiations can collapse even when a matchup appears close. If the economics don’t work for both camps, the Keyshawn fight could suffer the same fate.
Mora’s prediction remains just that, a prediction on a fight that may never move beyond the negotiating table.
