No matter how many distractions, no matter the antics Ryan has displayed, I know the kid ain’t crazy,” he firmly stated. His words resonate with a mix of assurance and a subtle nod to the psychological games often played in the lead-up to major bouts.

Moreover, Bill Haney’s commentary shines light on a steely resolve within the Haney camp, undistracted by Garcia’s unconventional pre-fight narrative. He even quipped, “The crazy thing was signing up to fight Devin. We’re gonna be ready,” showcasing a blend of humor and confidence. This comes in the wake of Devin Haney mocking Garcia’s sparring session, punctuating his skepticism with a drooling emoji, further heating up the pre-fight banter.
