“I’m definitely surprised. I respect him for that because I’m going to beat his a**,” Prograis said, via boxingnews24.com. “He’s coming up. He’s trying to do everything he can. He’s working with Freddie Roach. That s**t isn’t going to matter. I saw that he was hitting the heavy bag. He put on some size and was hitting the heavy bag.”

The fight will take place at Chase Center in San Francisco. Haney, who is from the city, is expected by many to win. However, Prograis is a WBC super lightweight champion.
