Sensational young Las Vegas lightweight Devin Haney 22-0 (14 Ko’s) closed the show in style last night as he headlined the Matchroom Boxing/Devin Haney Promotions card in Oxon Hill Maryland, with a highlight reel 7th round knockout of Mexico City’s Antonio Moran 24-4 (17 Ko’s) to snatch the WBC International and WBO Intercontinental titles and add the vacant WBA International strap to his collection.. Haney boxed exceptionally, landing the more quality shots throughout the contest, leaving the usually competent Moran looking a class beneath him.. In the 5th round, Haney landed a stiff body shot but appeared to trip Moran in the process, referee Kenny Chevalier however ruled the knockdown..
Haney maintained the strategic body work, slamming home a decoy right hand to the midsection in the 7th before unleashing a stealthy overhand right, that caught Moran cold, the Mexican fell lifeless to the canvas whilst Chevalier immediately called a halt at 2.32 of the session..
