Devin Haney vs. Jorge Linares was a professional boxing match contested on May 29, 2021, for the WBC lightweight championship.

[1][2] After Haney's unanimous decision win over Cuban veteran Yuriorkis Gamboa,[3] Haney called out fellow American lightweight and newly crowned unified lightweight world champion, Teófimo López, who had recently defeated pound-for-pound star Vasiliy Lomachenko[4] three weeks prior, saying it was 'the main fight' he wanted to make happen.

After weeks of negotiations, it was announced that Haney was set to defend his WBC title against former three-division world champion Jorge Linares on May 29, 2021 in Las Vegas.

[10] Haney controlled the action for most of the fight, but was hurt when Linares caught him with a powerful right-left combination toward the end of the tenth round.

Haney survived the final two rounds largely by tying Linares up and negating his opponent's attempts at trying to engage with him.
