Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia have reached an agreement to battle for Haney’s junior welterweight title on April 20 in Las Vegas. This came to happen after a series of failed fight negotiations. Now that it is decided, the two sides have proceeded to take shots regularly at each other. Caught in the crossfire is Floyd Mayweather.
Bill Haney, Devin’s father and trainer, took to social media to address Mayweather’s relationship with Garcia, referring to Mayweather by various nicknames and Garcia as “Diamond Garcia.” Haney accused Garcia of slandering him publicly after allegedly meeting with Mayweather at a club. This response from Haney came after Garcia called Bill Haney a “pi*p” multiple times during their altercation in Las Vegas. In a recent development, Bill Haney has pulled in the Mayweather Promotions CEO as well.

Leonard Ellerbe responded to Bill Haney’s provocations, reminding him that ‘KingRy’ is not associated with Mayweather Promotions or even Floyd Mayweather himself. He, in a tweet, asked Haney to keep Mayweather out of their social media drama. These fell on deaf ears as Bill Haney posted a clip on his Instagram responding to him. He said “Breaking news! Leonard Ellerbe, the black Santa Claus of the ghetto that never seems to give us what we want, attempts at a ploy to distract the Haneys by disassociating his boss, Dollar Bill, from the 4/20 promotion.”

However, he did not stop there. He addressed ‘Money’s story, where he had called Bill Haney a “regular b*tch” for acting the way he is. “And on a lighter note, Dollar just tweeted there’s a out of pocket bi*ch on the ranch. Stay tuned,” declared Haney. It seems he is currently cooking up another response to Mayweather as well. Shifting to the match-up, who is poised to take home the win?
