Stay at 135lb? Step up? Shakur Stevenson or Gervonta 'Tank' Davis? All options are on the table for Devin Haney after he remained undisputed lightweight champion and retained his unbeaten professional record with a points victory over Vasiliy Lomachenko
Although vanquished opponent Vasiliy Lomachenko's team are planning to appeal against the result of Saturday's undisputed lightweight title showdown which saw Haney keep hold of all four belts via a contentious unanimous decision, the undefeated American is already looking at his next challenge.
The biggest decision Haney - now 30-0 (15) - faces is whether he stays at lightweight or steps up to super-lightweight in pursuit of more belts and post-fight on Saturday, the 24-year-old did not rule anything out.
Me and my team are going to go back to the house, watch the fight and reflect on it," Haney, who added it has always been tough for him to make weight at the 135lb lightweight limit, said.
"I've been at 135 for a long, long time. This is my 30th fight. I've been here at 135 since I was 16 years old.
We're going to go back to the lab and figure out what's next."
