Oscar De La Hoya has his work out for him, as the Haneys continue to mount pressure with a lawsuit. The two factions have been at each other’s necks for a while now, and it seems it’s not going to ease out. Amidst this legal tussle, Rick Glaser has come to his rescue.

Notably, De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions helped stage the Devin Haney vs. Ryan Garcia fight this April, which seized the limelight for negative reasons. However, the Haneys recently decided to pursue the legal route for payment of additional revenue. Where is that additional revenue coming from?

The Haneys believe that Ryan Garcia should forfeit his paycheck from the fight, according to their suit that claims unjust enrichment. Since the amount, if the suit goes through, will be paid to Golden Boy Promotions, it becomes part of their profit for the event from which the Haneys can claim 47% as per their existing contract. That is not all. Their suit also includes a demand for a complete accounting of the event too. In the end, Oscar De La Hoya is the one expected to foot the bill in case the courts see the merit in their complaint.

Thus, Golden Boy Promotions lynchpin wrote on his X handle, “Enough is enough… If the Haneys are still having trouble understanding their contract, we will be happy to walk them through it, again.” This comment attracted the attention of Glaser, who revealed his experience of working with De La Hoya.

The IBHOF elector responded with appreciation and praise for De La Hoya and replied, “I will add that I’ve done business for almost 2 years with @OscarDeLaHoya, #GBP President Eric Gomez @makeawar, & thee entire #GoldenBoy staff, you can count me as greatly impressed, & very appreciative. #GBP #Boxing.”

Interestingly, Bill Haney recently turned to his social media handles and asserted that the lawsuit would stay. What’s more, in June, both Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia launched accusations of delayed payments at De La Hoya. But ‘KingRy’ also finds himself named in the current lawsuit. But Glaser had come out all guns blazing at the Haneys in the previous posts too.

Rick Glaser pointed out how Bill Haney lost his street cred and that his son should be embarrassed about the Garcia fight because he failed to show up in the fight and failed to shield himself from Garcia’s left hooks. Instead, he advised them to move on from the situation and leave it behind. He penned, “The Haney’s should’ve left this fight behind & moved on. Instead, file a lawsuit resulting from the competition of #Boxing, they aren’t winning that lawsuit. That’s an act of desperation by the Haney’s.”

Therefore, the situation is getting tense with each exchange and verbal spat. Many, including the likes of Bob Arum and Calvin Ford, have suggested their distaste for it. In addition, there have been demands and traction for both Haney and Garcia to run it back. But it remains to be seen how this lawsuit scenario affects that.
