Bill Haney, father of boxing prodigy Devin Haney, delved into a noteworthy sparring session between his son and the legendary Floyd Mayweather. When Devin was just 18, he squared off with Mayweather in the ring. Bill emphasized this proud dad moment, likening it to Floyd's own experiences with iconic fighters like Pernell Whitaker. Bill insists that being vocal about his son's accomplishments is just part of being a supportive parent, despite receiving pushback for it. The conversation also touched on parenting philosophies, with Bill advocating for staying engaged and nosy about his kids' lives, even as they grow older. Furthermore, Bill commented on a rumor concerning Floyd's alleged detention in Dubai over financial issues. Bill humorously noted that if the rumors were true, he would need his money back as he had invested in aiding Floyd's situation.
