Whatever the impetus for it, Haney’s comment arrived shortly after Nicolson’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, had criticised Haney’s latest win – a decision over Brian Norman on November 22 – and therefore came as no surprise. It was, on the face of it, just one more example of a female getting caught in the crossfire as two men draw pistols, compare penises, and in the process reveal the extent of their inadequacies. For Hearn, the promoter, that meant besmirching the reputation of a man he once loved, while Haney, responding in kind, was just being rude, retaliatory, unkind. He would have felt hurt by Hearn’s betrayal, having worked with him in the past, but that was still no reason to use Nicolson, an easy target, to get back at his old promoter or somehow make a point.
