“What’s the biggest fight in boxing to be made right now?” Bill Haney said. As the discussion shifted back toward the possibility of Devin Haney facing Stevenson, Haney remained consistent in his position. “Shakur Stevenson and Devin Haney,” Bill said. “At least we got a chance to reach what we’re talking about.” Pressed again on Keyshawn’s place in the welterweight picture, Bill suggested the Norfolk native had not been forgotten. “This thing has been brewing for seven, eight, nine, 10 years, whatever it has been,” Bill said. “Just relax, and we’re going to get there, okay?
