In response to the reaction from the young boxing contender, which featured numerous additional comments in multiple tweets, “The Hardcore Legend” chimed in with his thoughts.

As the author of “Have A Nice Day” pointed out, whatever decision Allen chooses should not be based in any way, shape or form off of the reaction of the dreaded “haters.”
Yes, Mrs. Foley’s baby boy actually used the word “haters” organically in a tweet sent to Allen a little over 24-hours after his tough loss to Price at the O2 Arena in London, England.
Hello @davidthewhiter1 – please don’t pay any attention to the haters. Anyone going out of their way to bring you down after this fight isn’t worth your time or effort. https://t.co/OxfQwNsxet
