--------
Bill Haney, father and manager of professional boxer Devin Haney, spoke about his son moving to Mexico in 2015 to begin his professional boxing journey at 17. Haney lauded the northern Mexico city, Tijuana, saying they found frequent visits and incredible local support both essential in Devin's early career. An impressive journey with around 15 victories quickly led to Devin garnering attention from notable personalities such as Birdman and mogul Jay-Z. Haney attributed their interest partly to the innovative marketing strategy of publishing their journey on YouTube, emphasizing the reigning importance of content. Reflecting on visiting Jay-Z's estate, Bill Haney expresses admiration for Jay-Z’s candidness during their discussion about parenting, finding it relatable and comforting that fame and fortune don’t change paternal instincts and responsibilities. The entire journey shaped the younger Haney into understanding the business side of boxing, preparing him extensively for future endeavors.
