‘My resume speaks for itself’: Devin Haney talks Dec. 19 title unification with Liam Paro

A formal press release has announced the upcoming welterweight title unification fight between Devin Haney and Liam Paro on December 19 at San Francisco's Chase Center. Haney expressed his excitement for the bout, stating that his accomplishments speak for themselves. He has never been afraid to face a champion in their home territory, having previously taken George Kambosos' belts and become the undisputed lightweight champion of the world in Australia.

Haney is now bringing Paro into his backyard in Oakland and aims to secure a unified welterweight world championship title in front of the Bay Area crowd. Meanwhile, Paro acknowledges being the underdog in this fight, having taken the title from Matias in Puerto Rico. However, he remains confident and determined to make history by unifying the division and adding another championship to his collection.

The WBO and IBF welterweight world titles will be on the line in what promises to be an exciting fight.
