Brian Norman’s manager Adrian Clark said he was “telled” that the fight did not happen. He did not give a reason for the negotiations to be interrupted.
Haney-Norman Jr.
Logically, Devin and his father, Bill Haney, chose not to fight against WBO middleweight champion Norman Jr. (28-0, 22 KOS). Fans believe Hanney quit the fight in the fight and became cold after watching Norman Xiao’s last three battles.
The cruel power of Little Norman
Devin’s chances of winning will be slim and will likely see what’s left of his career burning in the incinerator, just like Norman Jr.’s last opponent, Jin Sasaki, who burned in the incinerator. He had to transport it from the ring on a stretcher.
The big shots that Sasaki took in the first four rounds would cause Hanney a lot of trouble. Given how hurt Devin was to Ryan Garcia, he couldn’t see him walking for more than a round or two, Sasaki’s shooting was against Norman.
Many people think that Bill Haney is about the use of Devin with Brian Norman Jr. they see it as more about the structure of the cornea.
Welp, that’s very soon. Unless I’m punk, I’m told there is no fight between Norman Jr-Haney.

Bill’s timing showed interest in the fight after Norman beat Sinsaki last week.
Fans think if Bill had a real interest in having Haney-Norman Jr. fight, why didn’t he try to do this before Norman Jr’s clash with Sinsaki? Why did Bill wait until his mark immediately after the battle?
Has Haney’s career burned?
The Haney-Norman Jr. fight will be held in Saudi Arabia, which means Devin will receive another big payday. On the other hand, he might be eliminated early, but at least the dough will be good.
In order for Haney to continue to get the big money he earns on his final hit with Jose Ramirez, he will need to fight a popular and dangerous person. He played a rematch with Ryan Garcia in October after losing to Rolando’Rolly’Romero last May.
