Undisputed lightweight World Champion Devin Haney has announced his decision to move up a weight class because he believes he has cleared his division.

ESPN quotes Haney as saying:

I did everything at 135 that I could. The biggest fight for me was making that Gervonta Davis fight, and his side showed no interest in making the fight. I've outgrown the division, so now I make my quest to 140 to become a two-division champion. And after this fight, I look to become a three-division champion and move up to 147, God willing that I'm successful in this fight.

The 25-year-old Haney last stepped into the ring in May 2023 against Ukrainian Vasiliy Lomachenko. In this confrontation Devin won by unanimous decision of judges. He has 30 wins (15 by knockout) and no losses.

Davis last entered the ring against Ryan Garcia in April of this year. Gervonta won that fight by knockout in the seventh round. He has 29 wins (27 by knockout) and no losses.
