What's next for the Lightweight division?

I can't believe the number of people calling Prograis a cherry-pick . Granted it's not the fight I wanted but it was pretty clear Haney needed and wanted to go up. But to dismiss Prograis...much doing with his last snoozer and Shakur-Haney falling out...is shortsighted bonkers.

But not quite as bonkers as thinking this will do well on PPV . This sport continues to stifle its fanbase growth and frustrate the stubborn old heads that stuck around. You simply cannot ask fans to PAY for 2,3 PPVs in a single month. Just foolish.

For whatever reason, I reckon Haney gets a lot of unwarranted stick from the boxing community.
He needed to go up, and he’s always fought for titles rather than “money fights” . Prograis didn’t look great in his last fight, but that doesn’t mean much. He’s a legitimate champ at the weight division that Haney is going into.
Ps. On another point , I may have been asleep , but on Boxrec, it’s says that Josh Taylor is “banned indefinitely” by the NYSAC?
Anybody refresh my memory?

Haney is starting to build a nice little run
I just can't get the image of him holding on for dear life against Linares
Or his struggles with Lomachenko
I think Prograis will be a much tougher fight than some are suggesting
