Devin “The Dream” Haney (25-0) is the WBA regular lightweight champion, and he’s been looking for a tough challenge to prove he’s ready to take the next step in his career. He has been the WBC regular lightweight champion for almost two years, but his path to that title was a little strange. Haney beat Alfredo Santiago in November of 2019 to become the interim lightweight title holder, which set up a likely match against then champion Vasyl Lomachenko. Instead the WBC promoted Lomachenko to a new Franchise Champion status, and made Haney the regular champion. That meant he got the title without winning it in the ring, and it made him kind of a secondary champion.

Haney would love the chance to unify the belts, and for now that would mean taking on Teofimo Lopez soon. Lopez beat Lomachenko and unified all four belts, including the WBA franchise belt last year. Haney isn’t limited to just Lopez, as there are tons of big names in his weight range to make fights against, including Ryan Garcia or Gervonta “Tank” Davis. But he needs to prove himself worthy first, and that means defeating the tough veteran fighter he faces in this fight.

Jorge “El Niño de Oro” Linares (47-5) is a two division world champion and the former WBA and The Ring lightweight champion, but he sees this fight as his last best shot to become champ again. This Venezuelen hero has had quite the career, winning multiple national amateur titles and fighting as a pro at five different weight classes. Linares won his first world title in 2007, beating Oscar Larios to win the WBC featherweight belt. 

In 2014 he became a lightweight world champion, and his run at that weight class included two legendary wins with Anthony Crolla. In 2018, Linares finally ended his run as lightweight champion when he lost his belts to Vasyl Lomachenko. Linares has since bounced back, and he is coming into this fight riding back to back wins. With his experience as a former champion, Linares could not only test Haney but potentially take his title away.
