Ryan talks to him about mastering the strategy and sweet science of knowing when to be aggressive in the ring and when to out smart his opponent with defense. The guys ask Devin about overcoming adversity in the ring, with Haney honestly giving his assessment of how he bounced back from being hurt with a punch for the first time in his life in his 2021 battle against Jorge Linares. With potential blockbuster fights in his future against fighters such as Gervonta Davis and Shakur Stevenson, Ryan asks Devin what separates him from those fighters and his upcoming foe, Vasyl Lomachenko. Often criticized for not having knock out power, Devin fires back that those who say that about him are not in the ring with him and he knows his abilities and will continue to pursue the path of etching his name in boxing legacy long after he stops fighting. With success, comes fame and Devin has experienced his life in the public eye and has altered his lifestyle to adapt to the constant changes of social media and paparazzi trailing his moves to create stories. Staying grounded is something his father instilled in him from a young age and being over cautious in his personal life and outside of boxing has helped him stay on a clean path.
