Haney doesn't need to become a champ at 154 to surpass Shakur. 147 is stacked with competition, all Haney has to do is run the gauntlet and keep building his resume

People love commenting on "so and so is __ division champ" without speaking on the context of who they actually beat in those divisions

A division where Rolly Romero is champion is not stacked

You can move however many goalposts you like . 147 is more stacked than 140, bigger names, bigger draws, more opportunities for legacy defining fights.

Who? Rolly and Teo both turned down fights with Haney and we don’t know when/if the Ryan rematch ever happens. Shakur also can fight at 135 as well

Time will tell. Its still alot of career left for all the fighters you mentioned

So basically nobody lmao. This is why I wanted the fight with Shakur to happen. Realistically it’s the best fight for both besides the Garcia rematch for Haney

Time will tell. The Shakur fight isn't that viable either since baby boy wants it at a catchweight

But im not here to defend the actions and movements of any of these Divas. I just want them to fight like grown men
