Round-by-Round: Devin Haney vs. Joseph Diaz - December 4, 2021

[gregregegg]

diaz doing well, pushing pace and making it rough. losing on points, but he isnt going to win on points. Needs to make it rough and tiring and try knock a tired haney out late.

Round 4 - Diaz

Jo Jo pinned Haney in a corner and began landing his left hand upstairs. Popped a few nice jabs too. Diaz wants to make it ugly but Russell Mora isn’t having it.

[JxhDel.]

Haney 39 - 37 Diaz. Good last round by JoJo.

[lazboy]

Diaz has no answer to those body shots which is a bit concerning.

[brilo33]

close rd, why is haney just standing in front of jo jo he is going to lose this un less he moves

[bobcatbox]

Round 5 - Diaz

Close round. Haney given a hard warning for repeated and obvious low blows. Diaz hurt Haney with a left hand to the body. Diaz blocking most of Haney’s combinations but not being active enough himself.

[BROZO]

good fight, zero Power. pit pat war

[gregregegg]

Imagine if haney had power.

Round 6 - Haney

Got it 58-56 for Haney at the midway point. That was a really nice round for him. Beautiful movement out of the corner. Circling half the ring back and forth. Mixing in the overhand right.

[JxhDel.]

59 - 55 Devin, masterful sixth round by him

[bobcatbox]

Round 7 - Diaz

Haney was in control and then Diaz landed several left hands in a row. Diaz is an incredibly skilled pugilist. His ability to slip the right hand as a southpaw is simply amazing.

[lazboy]

Rd 7 Haney starts strong Diaz lands the harder cleaner punches. Diaz rd.

[CMCanavessi]

Have it 67 66 Haney after the 7th

[BROZO]

Haney is a beautiful ring general. too bad he has no punch to go with it. great generalship.

[lazboy]

R8 Haney moving more and can’t miss when he targets the body. Diaz aggression nullified in that rd.

[bobcatbox]

Round 8 - Haney

Not a lot from either guy. A lot of movement and excellent defense from Haney. Rendered Diaz very ineffective. At some point Mora has to take a point from Haney for the low blows.

[squiggy]

Diaz well on his way to either a surprise KO win or something like a 117-111 loss...

[CMCanavessi]

77 75 H

[lazboy]

Diaz was hurt then hurt Haney back. Nice.

[BROZO]

Close but underdogs dont get the close rounds on the house fighter or the fighter with more upside. I have haney up 6-3

[bobcatbox]

Round 9 - Haney

Good round. Diaz is hanging in there but Haney is in control. Looked like Haney hurt Diaz a little with a hard right hand. Diaz returned the favor with a few grazing lefts. Another hard warning for Haney’s low blows after a plethora of soft warnings.

[JxhDel.]

Haney 88 - 83 JoJo. Devin working two shots, moving, defending and countering, just like that

[CMCanavessi]

86 85 H

[BROZO]

If Haney had any power he would be Tommy Hearns.

[lazboy]

Rd 10 very hard to score.
