In a recent tweet, BoxingScene shared Ryan Garcia’s father’s opinion on Shakur Stevenson’s mandatory challenger status. Garcia’s father expressed his disbelief that Stevenson had earned his shot at the winner of Haney-Lomachenko, stating, “For them to say he has mandatory over Haney and Loma, come on. Enough is enough, fight somebody that’s tough. Fight somebody that’s earned their spot.”

This statement drew criticism from boxing champion Claressa Shields, who took to Twitter to express her disagreement with Garcia’s father, stating, “This dude clearly has no boxing intelligence to say that”.
