Хейні (pictured below) is a 7-time national amateur champion, who captured a gold medal at the 2015 Молодіжний Чемпіон Світу, but he was unable to try-out for the 2016 U.S. Olympic Boxing Team because of his age. When headgear was eliminated from Olympic boxing competition, the minimum age for a U.S. boxer to compete in the Olympics was changed to 19, so Haney decided to turn pro at the age of 17 rather than wait four more years. Спочатку, хоча, he had a problem getting licensed in the U.S.
 After having four successful fights in Tijuana, Мексика, Haney’s license was approved by the Nevada Athletic Commission and he won an impressive 4-round decision over Rafael Vazquez this past April 9ї на Manny-Pacauiao-Timothy Bradley IIIshow at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Fighting May 21вулиця on CBS Sports Network promises to be the start of something very special for Haney.“It really means a lot to me fighting on national television for the first time,” Haney said between workouts. “I’m excited to have my friends from all over be able to watch me fight on TV. I’m going to make a statement that nigh that I’m the next big star. I’m going to show everyone my talents.”

What can fans expect to see when they watch Haney in the ring? “Я боксер-нокаутер; strong and fast,” Haney added. “I’m a balanced fighter who can do everything. Я лише 17 and still have a long way to go. Кожен день, my head trainer, Флойд Мейвезер, Sr., works with me to relax more, walk-down my opponent and take my time – it’s not the amateurs anymore – to breakdown my opponent.”
