Bill Haney indulges himself in Devin Haney vs Jared Anderson beef

Haney competes in the lightweight and super-lightweight division. Meanwhile, Anderson is a heavyweight through and through. One may be curious, why the two are beefing with each other. Over the weekend, Haney’s rival, Shakur Stevenson had his fight with Edwin De Los Santos. But many, including Haney, did not find his performance impressive.

On his Instagram story, he stated, “My son would beat yo soft a*s up 1 on 1 and you a heavyweight talking tough.”
