Boxing pound-for-pound rankings: Devin Haney moves up, Shakur Stevenson loses ground\u060c<\/p>\n

\n

Devin Haney moved up in weight and dominated Regis Prograis to win the WBC junior welterweight title in a shutout victory in San Francisco last Saturday.<\/p>\n

Haney (31-0, 15 KOs), former undisputed lightweight champion, relinquished his 135-pound titles to challenge Prograis (29-2, 24 KOs). The win<\/a> over Prograis, a fighter who campaigned most of his career in the division and was considered one of the best at 140, was so impressive that Haney moved up one spot to 6th.<\/p>\n

“Whether you believe Haney beat Vasiliy Lomachenko, and I believe he beat Lomachenko [a controversial decision in May], Haney has always looked for the best challenges,” two-division champion and current ESPN TV analyst Timothy Bradley Jr. said after moving Haney up two spots on his list. “To go to Australia twice to beat George Kambosos Jr. and then move up to 140 pounds to face a guy many thought was the best fighter in the division, a dangerous guy in Regis Prograis, a two-time junior welterweight champion, and Haney made things look easy. It\u2019s been a long time since I\u2019ve seen a 120-107 score in a title fight, a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n

ESPN boxing insider Mike Coppinger also praised Haney for his performance, but found it difficult to advance him due to the powerful fighters in front of him.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaney delivered a virtuoso performance in knocking out Prograis in his 140-pound debut on Saturday,\u201d Coppinger said. “Haney is undoubtedly an elite fighter and there's an argument that he already belongs in the top 5 at 25, but Canelo Alvarez and Dmitry Bivol are currently blocking his path on my list. That could change at some point given in 2024, however, as Haney wins bigger fights and the others get older.<\/p>\n

Shakur Stevenson, who beat Edwin De Los Santos to win the WBC lightweight title on November 16 in Las Vegas, drops one place after a poor performance that saw him land just 65 punches in 12 rounds. Stevenson (21-0, 10 KOs) drops one spot to No. 9 even with the win.<\/p>\n

The formula<\/h2>\n

Ranking is based on a descending points system, with a first place vote receiving 10 points, a second place vote receiving nine points, and so on. A tie goes to the fighter with the highest ranking, then the one with the most votes in that ranking.<\/p>\n\n

Others receiving votes:<\/b> Teofimo Lopez Jr. (21), David Benavidez (7), Vasiliy Lomachenko (5), Errol Spence Jr. (4), Emanuel Navarrete (1).<\/p>\n\n
