Haney Signs DAZN Deal, Targets Biggest Fights

Devin Haney has locked in a multifight agreement with DAZN, the streaming platform announced this week. The former undisputed lightweight champion told ESPN he wants "the biggest challenges and the fights the fans want to see."

Haney returns to DAZN after his controversial majority decision loss to Ryan Garcia in April. The result — later overturned to a no-contest after Garcia tested positive for ostarine — was Haney's first career defeat on paper. He held all four lightweight belts before moving up to 140 pounds last year.

What Haney's DAZN Return Means For Next Fight

The deal gives Haney access to DAZN's global platform and positions him for high-profile matchups in the lightweight/" class="internal-link text-bone underline decoration-ash/30 hover:decoration-gold underline-offset-2">super lightweight division. Names like Teofimo Lopez, Subriel Matias, and Isaac Cruz circle the weight class. Haney has not fought since the Garcia bout and has not announced his next opponent.

DAZN has built a stable of 140-pound contenders. The platform carried Lopez's recent win over Steve Claggett and streams Matchroom cards featuring top super lightweights. Haney's team has not yet disclosed fight dates or locations tied to the new contract.
