After long negotiations, Ryan Garcia is geared to take on Devin Haney at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. There is no going back for either fighter anymore. However, that doesn’t bother ‘KingRy,’ whose latest social media post has fans pumped up for the April 20 title fight. 

Both parties have drummed up quite the anticipation for the clash amongst their respective fans due to their confrontation and constant verbal jabs at each other. Not long back, Garcia and ‘The Dream’ Haney nearly came to blows when they met at the Super Bowl LVIII Radio Row. However, today, Ryan Garcia took a different approach to creating anticipation among his fans.

In a following tweet, Devin Haney accused ‘KingRy’ of trying to plan an exit route from their much talked about clash. Haney’s comment stemmed from Garcia’s previous U-Turn from their fight, where Garcia dropped Haney to fight Rolly Romero. However, after this back and forth on X, when Garcia shared the pictures on Instagram, fans were left daydreaming about their upcoming clash. 

Fan help keep ‘KingRy’ motivated

With so many ups and downs on their path to the ring, their eventual fight is poised to rival the climax of the biggest blockbuster thrillers. So, reacting to Garcia’s hard training, fans could not hold back their thoughts. One user claimed Garcia’s pictures are making him want to hit the gym. The user wrote: “Sheesh, u makin me wanna train rn.” 

The next user seems to have other goals set for Garcia to achieve. The user wanted ‘KingRy’ to mute Haney’s father, Bill Hnaey, with a spectacular performance. “Shut his dad up,” wrote the user. However, it’s worth mentioning that Haney is a heavy favorite going into the fight.

Someone else predicted the result of the fight. Lucky for Ryan Garcia, the fan’s prediction was in his favor. The user commented, “Ryan Garcia Wins by ko round 6 left Hook.”
