The fight boxing fans have been waiting for is almost all ready to go. WBC super lightweight champion Devin Haney is set to face off against boxing sensation Ryan Garcia. Golden Boy Promotions took to Twitter to announce the fight to the fans, revealing it to stream live on DAZN PPV, on April 20th. However, it seems that Garcia is still unable to shake off the unfortunate experience from last year.
His defeat against Gervonta Davis has shifted the boxing world’s perspective. As the upcoming fight against Haney approaches, numerous Gervonta Davis fans are revisiting his match from April 2023. However, when a fan recently attempted to use that loss to diminish the challenge awaiting Haney, ‘The Dream’ didn’t let it slide. Here’s how the interaction unfolded.
Devin Haney is proud of his World Titles
When Tank fought Garcia, the matchup was an exciting prospect. However, the way in which Tank defeated Garcia made many question Garcia’s mettle. Though Garcia did claim that he had been hurt in the area previously, a lot of fans don’t buy into his claims. There are some who think the way Tank took down Garcia has now made ‘KingRy’ vulnerable to other fighters. One among them went after Devin Haney.
In the latest turn of events a fan od Tank took to Twitter to write, “Tank already laid the blueprint on how to neutralize Ryan, if you can’t do it after he done showed you then you fo sure not elite or Tank just different, that go for all Ryan future opponents…” According to the fan, after Davis made quick work of Garcia, other fighters shouldn’t have any trouble defeating Garcia and if they are unable to do it that quickly others may not be on the same level as Gervonta Davis.
However, this assessment of his upcoming opponent really got under Devin Haney’s skin. He didn’t hide his disapproval of the fans’ opinions. He boldly challenged the fan writing, “N***a how many world titles u won? U talking like u can do this yourself.” Haney criticized the fan for making such comments without having any experience in the sport.
Ryan Garcia seems to be addressing his weaknesses, and now with Floyd Mayweather in his corner, he has support if needed. Recently, Garcia appears to be contending with another issue that has surfaced.
Did Ryan Garcia get robbed?
In a shocking turn of events, Ryan Garcia recently shared distressing news with his fans – his home was robbed during Super Bowl Weekend. The incident unfolded when Garcia and his family were away. In a social media post, Garcia revealed the unfortunate incident, stating, “They Robbed us this morning! Praise the Lord we weren’t there. He protected me I love you God thank you.” Sharing the surveillance footage of the robbery, he expressed gratitude for his safety during the incident.
Despite his absence, some members of Garcia’s team were present at the time of the burglary, adding an extra layer of distress to the situation. The boxer, who had been looking forward to enjoying Super Bowl Weekend like many others, found himself grappling with the aftermath of the incident.
Garcia’s emotional response was evident as he called for prayers, stating, “Pray for these guys Cause The Anger of the Lord is upon them.” The incident not only shook Garcia, but also left an impact on his team, emphasizing the gravity of the situation.
