Ryan Garcia Fires Shots at Devin Haney for His Recent “Escape” Remark: “That Is Real H** Behaviour”

Get ready for fireworks! After months of heated negotiations, boxing stars Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney are finally stepping into the ring. The Barclays Center in Brooklyn will serve as a battleground for their highly-anticipated super lightweight title fight on April 20th. However, it seems that there is a new problem brewing under the surface for the two. Will the fight once again fall apart?

Earlier last week, DAZN had announced the date of the fight along with its venue in New York. However, Garcia was not pleased with the new location, asserting, “This is a MGM Vegas fight, doing everything we can to bring this to Vegas and giving this fight what it deserves!!!” In the next tweet, clearing his stance, he wrote, “This decision has nothing to do with NYC but everything to do with business and what I believe is the best move for my career.” Haney, responding to the tweet, insinuated that Garcia is now using this as an excuse to either push the fight forward or to get out of it altogether. But this accusation didn’t sit well with ‘KingRy’. Here’s how he responded.

Ryan Garcia takes a dig at Devin Haney’s father yet again

The highly anticipated clash between Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney took another fiery turn on Twitter, with both fighters trading verbal jabs. Ryan Garcia contended that he has no issues with New York City being the location, but that Vegas is where he saw the fight being undertaken. A Vegas location has the probability of pulling in a bigger crowd and ensuring greater profits, according to KingRy.

However, Devin Haney quickly shared his suspicion about Garcia potentially looking at the issue of the location as an excuse to avoid the fight. He wrote, “This dude planning his escape.. h*e a** ni**a talk that tough talk but now talking like a bi**h!”.

Ryan Garcia, fuming at the insinuation, lashed out, questioning Haney’s motives for making it an issue. He stated, “Why are you trying to paint that picture to the public, towards the guy who is making you more money in your life and in your entire career- Sad to see.” He then pulled in Haney’s father, Bill Haney, in an effort to hit home with the insult and wrote, “That is real h** behavior which you learned from your dad so I can’t blame you.”

This exchange addresses the fear the boxing fans have about Ryan Garcia potentially getting out of the fight once again. In the meantime, here’s what Haney said about why the fight can’t take place in Las Vegas anymore.

Is Canelo responsible for the Haney vs. Garcia fight move?

The highly anticipated Haney-Garcia showdown is shifting gears, moving from the neon lights of Las Vegas to the bustling streets of New York. But why the sudden switch? Whispers point towards boxing superstar Canelo Álvarez, and his May 4th match up in the city. Devin Haney too conveyed this belief.

Haney, in a recent tweet, hinted that Álvarez’s upcoming, yet-to-be-announced fight influenced the decision. He claimed that the arena feared the Haney-Garcia bout would eat into Álvarez’s ticket sales, as most would only choose to watch one fight instead of two in such a short span of time. “The reason the fight not happening in Vegas is because they don’t wanna affect Canelo ticket sales,” Haney tweeted, igniting the online boxing community.

While Álvarez’s next opponent remains a mystery, potential contenders like Jermall Charlo and David Benavidez are being tossed around. However, Benavidez’s promoter recently stated that Álvarez rejected a fight from them, adding another layer of intrigue. Boxing fans are left waiting, eager for Álvarez’s official announcement.
