On an evening branded the “Night of Champions” on the ANB Enviornment, American stars Devin Haney and David Benavidez each delivered emphatic statements, securing world titles and silencing critics with dominant performances on the Riyadh Season card.
Haney conquers a 3rd division
Within the co-main occasion, Devin Haney made historical past by changing into a three-division world champion, defeating fellow American Brian Norman Jr. through unanimous determination to seize the WBO Welterweight title. Stepping as much as 147 kilos, Haney dispelled doubts about his energy early, dropping the champion within the second spherical with a pointy mixture.
“The Dream” managed the tempo together with his signature jab and exact motion, incomes scores of 117-110, 116-111, and 114-113 from the judges. The victory provides a welterweight strap to his earlier light-weight and tremendous light-weight crowns, additional cementing his pound-for-pound standing.
