Devin Haney Rips Apart “Miserable Old Man” Floyd Mayweather for Influencing Ryan Garcia: “Been Hating a Long Time”

Devin Haney has had enough. He opened fire against Floyd Mayweather and called him out for being a “hater” ahead of his fight with Ryan Garcia. The lightweight champion’s patience has grown thin with the former boxer-turned-promoter pulling strings from behind. The situation has become volatile, especially since Mayweather sent his opponent his sparring clip that lit up the boxing world.

‘The Dream’ has been on the receiving end of a tactical partnership between ‘KingRy’ and Mayweather. Mayweather had once advised Garcia to drop the fight with Haney and chase Rolando Romero. It appears Mayweather’s influence runs deep on Garcia and their fight. After holding his “tongue for years,” Haney has finally retaliated.

Devin Haney blasts off Floyd Mayweather

Haney, at 31-0, turned to his X handle and claimed Mayweather not only influenced Garcia to halt the fight but also nudged him to drop the p*imp comments. He wrote, “Floyd been hating a long time.. this ain’t just start. I held my tongue for years because I respect the greats of the sport.”

“But dude is a bonifide hater don’t wanna see nobody win if he not apart of it! I know he sent Ryan the sparring… I know he gave Ryan those “p*mp” comments to say. Miserable old man tried to stop the fight.. Alhamdulillah I’m happy he revealed himself to the world,” Haney added.

It was not long before Bill Haney blasted the 47-year-old promoter for hiding behind Garcia. The relationship between the Haneys and Mayweather reached a tipping point when Garcia shared sparring footage of Gervonta Davis beating up Devin Haney. The clip has made the rounds on the internet since then, and the fans are doubtful of Haney’s ability to take a power punch. Mayweather’s influence has pushed the Haneys to the edges, which Garcia once spoke of.

Ryan Garcia admits to Mayweather’s influence

In a conversation, the 25-year-old admitted Mayweather’s influence, which made him push for a fight with ‘Rolly’ Romero. He revealed, “Floyd’s pretty influential, he’s like ‘why would you do that, why don’t you you fight Rolly for the belt and then fight Devin Haney?’… And then I made a quick decision, I said ‘Floyd, that makes sense, I’ll go get another belt’.”

Besides Mayweather calling shots from behind the scenes, Garcia’s shenanigans and antics have Devin Haney riled up. The heated battle is being fought not only inside the square circle but also outside of it.
