    Welllllll..... I don't know about Loma and the lightweight division.

    But I think I know what's next for Haney.

    Seems Eddie Hearn wants for Haney to fight Rolly for the WBA 140-pound title.

    I have a better idea.

    Why don't Haney, Rolly, and Ryan hold their own "mini-tournament" at 140 for the WBA strap?

    Whoever comes out on top can call themselves "The Face of Boxing."

    Prograis, Matias, Taylor, and Lopez need not apply.

    This will be a private party.

    Speaking to the 3 Knockdown Rule, Arum revealed that he has not had any conversations with Devin's manager and father Bill Haney, but this has not stopped the 91-year-old detailing his plans for the young American star.

    "I haven’t talked to Bill about it," Arum responded when asked about Haney's next move.

    "Bill is doing what a manager should do, he’s a father, but a manager also and that’s to look for the best opportunity for Devin.

    "I’ve come up with three in my imagination, one maybe the winner of Taylor and Teofimo at 140 if he wants to go up in weight.

    "Secondly, there is a fight with Shakur, that would be massive because everybody would want to see that fight.

    "And third is the rematch (with Lomachenko)."

    No easy options for Haney there & Hearn was also offering Prograis

    Former heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder has reportedly joined Oleksandr Usyk in signing with Saudi Arabia's Skill Challenge Promotions.

    Wilder has been out of the ring since beating Robert Helenius last October via a first-round knockout. This emphatic victory followed his year layoff after his trilogy bout against Tyson Fury.

    'The Bronze Bomber' was previously affiliated with Al Haymon and Premier Boxing Champions but he stated earlier this year that he is an "open agent".

    ProBox TV are now reporting that he is set to join Skill Challenge Promotion and 'his arrival is expected to be formally announced next week'.

    Wilder could be followed by Devin Haney, as the undisputed lightweight champion is 'on the verge' of signing with the Saudi Arabia-based promoters.

    The report claims 'those in boxing circles expected Haney to re-sign with Top Rank' so this move 'represents a significant shock'.

    Following his victory over Vasily Lomachenko, Haney is expected to move up to super lightweight and he could fight Teofimo Lopez or Regis Prograis next.

    PGA golf and now getting into boxing even deeper. I'm actually surprised they haven't tried to purchase a major league franchise or host the playoffs yet..

    It's definitely gonna be an exciting one to watch! I'm not sure what's in store for the lightweight division, but we can expect Haney and Lomachenko to continue to put on a show. It's gonna be fire, no doubt!
