Fresh off the back of the biggest win of his career to date against Vasyl Lomachenko in Las Vegas in May, here at SportsLens we have decided to take a deep dive into Devin Haney’s net worth as the undisputed lightweight champion of the world.
Devin Haney Net Worth
The very first undisputed lightweight champion in the four-belt era, Devin Haney, has already reached the mountain top when it comes to boxing heritage.
At just 24-year-old, there are very few, if any, better prospects in the sport than him at this moment in time. After snatching three world title belts from George Kambosos Jr last summer, he successfully defended his undisputed status in the rematch four months later.
‘The Dream’ claimed the biggest victory of his career last time out as he outpointed Vasiliy Lomachenko in a highly skilled, highly competitive fight for undisputed bragging rights at 135-pounds. The fight was incredibly close, with the undefeated champion getting the nod on the judges’ scorecards.
Having been propelled to the very top of the lightweight division, Haney has enjoyed a meteoric rise to fame. This has, in turn, seen an upswing in his personal fortune, with a current net worth believed to be around $6 million – not bad for a man in his early 20’s.
All in all, Devin Haney is an extremely rich man. The 1998-born boxing superstar’s fortunes will continue to catapult as he solidifies himself as one of the best fighters on the planet and one of the new faces of boxing.
