Devin Haney will bid to become a two-weight world champion this evening, when he faces Regis Prograis in San Francisco.
Haney announced last week that he is vacating the undisputed lightweight titles, as he prepares to challenge Prograis for the WBC super-lightweight belt.
Haney, 25, last fought in May, winning a narrow decision over former champion Vasiliy Lomachenko to retain his titles. Meanwhile, 34-year-old Prograis last boxed in June, edging past Danielito Zorrilla to retain his gold.
Now Haney and Prograis will square off in an all-American clash, as Haney looks to stay unbeaten and hand Prograis the second loss of his pro career.
