Canelo Alvarez’s Trainer Eddy Reynoso Picks Ryan Garcia to Beat Devin Haney

In the boxing world, opinions often hit as hard as punches. Especially when they come from Eddy Reynoso, Canelo Alvarez’s mastermind coach. Why would Reynoso, a strategist behind boxing’s biggest star, pick Ryan Garcia over Devin Haney? It’s not every day that Reynoso tips the scales.

Garcia and Haney, two lightning rods in the lightweight division, are on a collision course. But isn’t Haney equally tactical, equally dangerous? What does Reynoso see that we don’t?

Is Haney not as smart as Ryan Garcia?

In an engaging conversation with ESNews, Eddy Reynoso, the architect behind Canelo Alvarez’s success, made a compelling pick in the hypothetical matchup between Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney. Reynoso stated, “Very good fight, I think Ryan. Ryan has got the punch and is smart.” This endorsement from Reynoso isn’t just another opinion; it’s a heavyweight statement in the boxing community, considering his pedigree.

Transitioning from Reynoso’s perspective to the fighters’ reality, Garcia and Haney have been dancing around the prospect of facing each other, exchanging verbal jabs that have the boxing world on the edge of its seat. Garcia, with his explosive power and charisma, has dazzled fans with knockouts that speak louder than words. On the other hand, Haney, who is currently the reigning champion of the WBC has truly demonstrated an impressive combination of technical skills and strategic thinking.

As Canelo’s trainer had some words for Ryan, Garcia himself had some words for Canelo.

A reserved mentor to Garcia

In the intricate dance of mentorship and camaraderie within boxing’s elite, Ryan Garcia sheds light on the nuanced relationship he shares with Canelo Alvarez. Despite a humorous attempt to connect over golf that went unanswered, Garcia deeply values Canelo’s guidance. “I asked him to play golf. He didn’t hit me back. I don’t know why,” Garcia playfully remarks, later adding a heartfelt, “Te Amo mucho Saul. I miss you. Hit me back.”

Canelo’s advice, steeped in personal experience and caution against certain decisions, resonates with Garcia. “He was a man of very few words. But when he spoke, it made sense,” Garcia reflected, underscoring the profound impact of Canelo’s reserved yet insightful mentorship on his life and career.
