However, ‘Loma’ has revealed the truth of their situation. He spoke to SNOWQUEENLA on YouTube and said, “Devin, stop lying. Why are you lying to people? Tell Eddie Hearn to send a written contract on paper.”
The pound-for-pound star then confirmed that he had received no written contracts, papers, or even an offer from ‘Dream’. He then accused Haney of seeking attention when he said, “In my opinion, he (Haney) only remembered me after he signed the contract with Linares.”
These comments showed the reality of the rumored fight between the two. However, this happened because Haney recently revealed that the only thing stopping him from announcing his next bout was Lomachenko, to whom they had sent a contract. Clearly, this was not true.

The two have a history between them, as Haney was Lomachenko’s mandatory for a while. However, Top Rank requested ‘Loma’ to be promoted to super-champion. As a result, Haney became champion, and they never faced each other.
Therefore, if the two were to fight, it would be a fantastic bout. However, the champion will now most likely face Jorge Linares next.
