fight.com here with Deon. Devin, congratulations, mate. How does it feel to be a free division world champion? Yeah, alhamdulillah. You know, it’s a dream come true of mine. Um, everything I said I was going to do, I did. Uh, executed the game plan that my dad put together to the te and uh, we got the win. Every division, you beat the linear champion. What’s this say about you, mate? Like, three times now you’ve gone and took on the best guy in the division. Yeah, just the type of fighter that I am. Um, you know, I want to make the best fights in the world happen. Um, I wanted to to to be the man of the division, what I once was. Um, and that’s what I did. You know, Brian Norman, I thank him for the opportunity, uh, you know, to to to give me the chance to to to fight for the world title, win a world title. And, um, yeah, they all talked about him being the puncher, but you were the one that got the knockdown. Yeah. No, I mean, I I knew that, you know, my dad my dad was like, in in the beginning, we want to go in there, we want to shock him. We want to go in there, we want to hurt him. uh and be it and be violent. And uh that’s what I did. I went in there. I shocked him. Uh he didn’t think that, you know, I think that he really believed that I was not I didn’t have power. I couldn’t punch. And uh I surprised him. Last one, mate. 147. Is this the best version of Deon Haney? Yeah. No, this this is more my natural self. Uh like I said, a lot of people were saying weighty this, weighty that, but I was really hurting myself, you know, fighting at those smaller weights. I think it took a lot away from my punch resistance. It took a lot and it took a lot away from my punching power. Congratulations, Deon. Very happy for you and your family and um and a big uh whole of Australia is very happy for you. I love Australia. Shout out George Kambosus. That’s my boy for life. I got to go. I got to get out there and see him.

Bet yall didn’t notice he drinking fresh coconut water after a fight best hydration
Go up to 154 and become a 4x division champion, there’s nothing at 147
Good job devin we was sceptal of your last performance but you prove you one of the best big dawg keep up the good work
Bro idk about y’all but it’s just so crazy to me how everybody in they mama’s was saying Dev was gonna get KO’d just for him to put on a BTA Performance🤣
#TheHatersAreStunned🤫
Why is Devin Face Always Like That After Tough Fights!@
Good fight. Salute to Haney. This was a great win against the best welterweight. Haney deserves praise. Haney beat Norman pretty easy. Salute to Norman for participating in making the fight happen. As boxing fans, we always want the top guys to fight one another. It happened. Somebody has to lose. Let's not disparage Norman because he lost. Let's wish that he learned from this and can come back as a better fighter.
People talk so very bad
So Devin is Chinny??
Devin vs Boots looks like the fight at 147lbs
I was telling people Dev should outboxing him and the only doubt I had was TR not sending their champions to lose but I forgot TR has no say when it comes to Saudi and lost Jared Anderson the same way 😭
Either way there aren’t too many people I see beating devin. I predicted at the lower weights he’d only lose to Tank and Ryan and we saw Ryan’s speed blitz him.
People that don’t know boxing who were saying Norman was better than Ryan BOY WAKE UP! Devin fighting Ryan was one of the best things he did for his career because he won’t see speed like that ever again in his career so people will look like they’re throwing in slow motion if they can’t time something.
I’ve been saying Devin will beat Shakur as well and Shakur still hasn’t shown anything to change my mind. Shakur is another 160 pounder fighting at lower weights….. go fight Dev my boy you ducked him once
Nah u still gotta fight ryan
Deboo dev 😂😂😂
Haney greatest clincher 🎉🎉🎉
Man i dont get y sum ppl hate on haney hes a inspiration i think ppl b jealous n envy fr or prolly cuz his father ppl say i think dats jus a excuse 2 hate ppl b weird. I used 2 hate on haney 2years ago only cuz i was a ryan fan i didn't even watch any of his fights i he became my inspiration around da ryan fight i watched sum of his fights leading up 2 it i thot haney was finna beat ryan even tho i was betting on ryan but man big ups devin haney
Doghouse training Bill Haney bought to make all them haters pay
People need to start giving bill Haney credit. Yall always sayin Devin need a new coach
This guy boxed masterfuly.
Devin still a coward he beat who
Salute Dev
Only real boxing fans left in the comments, good to see.
Respect these fighters man. Brian will bounce back and be better after going 12 with Devin. I hope he sees the lessons, and finds honor in losing. When your coach isn’t that good, you have to learn the ‘hard’ way.
DEBO HANEY is a real thing. 😤
Dev beat the brakes off Norman look like dev wasn’t in a fight lmao 🤣
Devin been calling out the best fighters but ya was too busy playing favorites. SMH
Doesn't even look like he was in a fight 😂😂😂😂😂
Hug fest
I got this to say Devin landed 70 punches Norman landed 59 so it's 11 punches apart we're the hell is the master class yes he dropped him besides that he lands some jabs and hugs name a fight Mayweather only landed 70 punches
We gotta start giving bill haney credit as one of the best trainers in boxing
Norman is so embarrassing.I will never watch him again.And that was the biggest let down of the fight complete trash
Ya’ll goofies thought Haney was gon’ fight emotional/foolish like he did against Ryan trying to outdo Tank… Ya’ll was WRONG!
He can easily become undisputed again at 147
Never doubted! All these new fake Brian Norman fans are awfully quiet 😂 🤡
Devin came from 135 and beat Norman jr. Wow.
Ppl keep saying the norman fans is quiet but they were never norman fans! They were haney haters and they all jumped ship. They'll be fans of the next opponent of dev
LOL @ all the clowns trying to change the narrative now that Haney did his thing. Haney is battle tested. Norman fought bums
Was he in the fight or did he watch the fight? 🎉🎉🎉 #thedream
“Shout out George Kambosos, my boy for life” ❤🎉😂
Haney back on top 💯
Alhamdulliah
AND THE NEW‼️🔥🔥🔥
Happy for Haney. Great win
