Devin Haney’s dad, Invoice, remains to be salty about his son’s embarrassing loss to Ryan Garcia, and he’s now calling him a “cheater” for coming in obese on the weigh-in the day earlier than their struggle on April twentieth. Invoice is simply not letting it go and giving Ryan the “cheater” label.
Papa Haney thinks Ryan (25-1, 20 KOs) got here in weight on goal to have a weight benefit, regardless that he made it identified that he’d labored as arduous he might to get all the way down to 140, however he couldn’t take off the final 3.2 lbs.
Ryan already forked over $1.5 million to Haney (31-1, 15 KOs) for coming in obese, however Invoice isn’t glad.
Invoice’s Massive “What If”
Invoice Haney instructed Boxingscene that he regretted “not imposing the three kilos” that Garcia missed weight by the weigh-in. “That’s calculated. That’s dishonest.”
If Invoice had tried to push Ryan by placing his toes to the fireplace to have him weigh in on the day of the struggle for a secondary weight test, just like the one Gervonta Davis had executed, he would have backed out instantaneously, leaving Devin caught defending his WBC gentle welterweight title in opposition to Arnold Barboza Jr., who was Golden Boy’s standpoint fighter.
I feel Ryan would have executed the identical factor to Haney, even when he had agreed to the struggle date secondary weigh-in that Invoice needed him to take.
If Invoice had demanded a rehydration restrict of 10 lbs, Devin would have needed to have weighed in as properly, and it could have impacted him simply as a lot.
Haney’s Profession: Not Wanting Sizzling
Devin’s profession just isn’t trying good proper now after his efficiency. Invoice wants to determine which route to take Devin as a result of he’s not going to get the rematch with Ryan that he’s been asking for.
If Haney goes to carry onto his WBC gentle welterweight title, he’ll have to defend in opposition to his necessary Sandor Martin subsequent. That’s a winnable struggle for Haney, however a troublesome one which he’ll wrestle in.
I wouldn’t be stunned if Haney loses to Martin as a result of that man has a proper hook that he used to drop Teofimo Lopez twice, and arguably beat him in 2022.
