“There Isn’t Much Tickets Left”: Ryan Garcia Focuses on Fight Tickets After Blaming Devin Haney for Poor Sale

Just weeks ago, the buzz surrounded Devin Haney vs. Ryan Garcia was dampened by whispers of sluggish ticket sales. With prices ranging from a budget-busting $190 to a staggering $6,360, some speculated the fight might be a dud. Despite the flashy pre-fight banter, the empty seats at Barclays Center cast a shadow over the April 20th showdown.

But wait, is the tide turning? Did something change? Ryan Garcia’s latest social media move has fans wondering – are there really not many tickets left?

From blame game to box office blitz: Ryan Garcia pushes ticket sales

Ryan Garcia, who just days ago placed the blame squarely on Devin Haney for the lackluster ticket sales for their upcoming fight, seems to be backtracking. Recall, Garcia publicly pointed fingers, stating  “Devin Haney is not a draw, and I definitely have been carrying this promotion on my back by myself.” However, his Instagram story paints a different picture.

Garcia took a very hands-on approach, flipping through what appeared to be ticket sheets for various sections of the Barclays Center.  He then addressed fans directly, urging them to “HURRY DONT WAIT TILL THE LAST MINUTE” with a bold caption in all caps: “There Isn’t Much Tickets Left.” He even included a link to the official ticket page, seemingly eager to convert viewers into buyers.

But what else did Ryan say about the ticket and its prices?

Garcia says original prices were “Crazy” high

Ryan Garcia has openly criticized the high ticket prices for his upcoming fight against Devin Haney at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. In response to concerns about slow ticket sales, Garcia didn’t mince words: “Nobody wants to watch a guy that supposedly can’t crack an egg,” he commented during a press interaction following his media workout.

Despite his competitive spirit, Garcia showed his advocate side for the fans, stating, “I think I was a big advocate for lowering the prices. Personally, the prices were very high and I want everybody to be in the building.” He emphasized the inaccessibility of the prices, adding, “I don’t think a lot of Americans can afford $500, $300 tickets for the top row. I wouldn’t even pay that.”
