Devin Haney Confirmed for the 2025 WBC Annual Convention in Bangkok

The World Boxing Council (WBC) has announced the attendance of American star and reigning champion Devin “The Dream” Haney as a special guest at its 2025 Annual Convention, which will take place in Bangkok from November 30 to December 5.

Born in San Francisco and raised in Las Vegas, Haney has built one of the strongest and most high-profile careers in modern boxing. With multiple world reigns and a dominant run through the lightweight and super lightweight divisions, Haney (professional record: 31 wins, 15 by knockout; 1 loss) has earned his place among the most influential names of the current era. His discipline, technical mastery, and boxing maturity have cemented him as a key figure in today’s global fight scene.

Standing 5’8” with a 71-inch reach and fighting out of the orthodox stance, Haney is recognized for his defensive brilliance and remarkable punching accuracy—attributes that led him to become the undisputed lightweight champion in 2022 and remain competitive as he moved up in weight. His presence at the event offers a unique opportunity for fans and industry peers to hear a modern champion’s perspective on the future of the sport.

The convention will be held at the prestigious Marriott Marquis Queen’s Park and will be historic, as for the first time, the WBC will officially integrate its Muay Thai branch into the main program, uniting two combat disciplines under one roof.

The agenda for this fifth edition includes conferences, workshops, networking activities, an awards ceremony, and a closing gala. Attendees will have the chance to learn directly from figures like Haney and participate in discussions about regulation, technological innovation, youth development, and boxing safety.

With his attendance confirmed, Devin Haney joins the international lineup that will bring the 2025 WBC convention to life, reinforcing his status among the sport’s elite and contributing to the strengthening of the green-and-gold legacy.
