Devin Haney vs. Ryan Garcia | DAZN - 20 April 2024

[wrighty]

Eddie interacts well with absolute headcases. WWE levels here.

Henry off to jump in a hill of white stuff again.

Probably as he's had a few nights out with Kalle and knows how it works lol

[MightyWarrior]

A great win for the fight game, Ryan brings the charisma and knock out power, and all his instagram fans are back on board now. He played a blinder in the build up, a method in his genuine madness.

Devin is a hell of a talent but his chin is not there for the elite level maybe. Still showed a whole Lotta heart. He’ll be back winning world titles for sure.

Good to see his blow hard dad getting some humble pie

Daddy's tone changed when Eddie mentioned Ennis

[Ruthless-RKO]

[SeanBrennan]

I do not think anyone anticipated this. I watched it today a couple of times. He has really caused an upset there. I know the conduct before is dodgy, and the weight, but that was a real against odds victory. Fair play.

Even without the pre fight drama I was certain Haney was too good , never rated Garcia, cracking left hook but nah not good enough to beat an elite boxer, that left hook dealt with Haney, I had it a draw but still I'm gobsmacked how it went down

[SeanBrennan]

Coldwell is right, it is basically cheating isn't it.

[coneye]

I decide to go to pub and watch it , engrossing fight , Garcia getting outboxed , when he went into his shell , dominating when he come out of it , glad i went ,, REF spoiled it , talk about bad refereeing ,, it would of been an entirly different fight if the ref would off had the balls to do his job ,

1--- Take a point or two off Garcia for turning his back

2---- Take a point or two of Haney for punching in the back .

3-- Take a point or three of Haney for holding . .

But still very entertaining fight , rematch if there is one should be good ,

looking back Was it an error on Garcias part coming in heavy , because looking at it , , take of the shoes the pants and the bottle of drink he would of only been a pound or so over and looked like he could of pissed that out , or was it tactical genius and just gave him that slight edge , ,

rematch at correct weights for the belts would be very watchable

[forcefraser]

The tracksuit and beer was the ceremonial weigh in. The actual weigh in was hours before

He did the right thing to come in heavy rather than weight drained. Haney chose to accept the money to let the fight go ahead

Garcia looked way bigger and miles stronger, so.no doubt it was the right decision for him

[Coco]

Garcia cheated, pleased that Haney has the money and the title

[cormack]

Coldwell is right, it is basically cheating isn't it.

kind of but haney keeps his belt and may learn to be a bit more humble

[Ruthless-RKO]

He definitely keeping it? I remember some one saying it's vacant, but since, many saying he can keep it..

The WBC have confirmed he’s keeping it. Seemed to be some confusion about it though as Eddie was telling everyone it was now vacant.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Boxing pros react

[Ezzard]

Haney wants a rematch after denying Loma one.

I think it's fair.. I mean, Garcia wasn't slightly overweight, he was half way to welterweight.

Might as well have been a cathweight.

Your local pub was showing DAZN at 5:30am on Sunday morning?!!

[Counter-puncher]

he lives in Australia. you really thought you had a little 'gotcha' moment there, didn't you? Made your day, I imagine.

[tonyevs]

Haney made the decision to still take the fight, so no excuses. The speed of Garcia was what got to Haney.

Those saying Garcia had an unfair advantage having those 3.5lb are ignoring the fact he would have had a bigger disadvantage boiling himself down lower to lose it.

You could see how ripped and dry he was before the weigh in when he lifts his top and flexes at the presser compared to his body on fight night.
Garcia likely learnt his lesson of boiling down too much in the Tank fight.

Haney fell into the Teo trap of developing an over grown ego and making himself even less appealing.
Garcia seems that little bit crazy enough to accept and take on the challenges we want to see.

[cormack]

there will be no rematch for now - maybe later once this marinates into a huge story with a huge amount of dough on the table.

Gotta question if haney can really compete power wise with a guy who rehydrates up to the size of a middleweight and bangs hard .

I guess he weighed up the pros and cons, worst case being that he still kept the title and got the extra dough, probably thought Garcia had lost his mind too.
Nevertheless as you say Garcia is far bigger, that's why we have weight classes, Garcia knew this and he blatantly cheated.

Lol yeh they opened at 11 am shoewd the main and a cfew prems

[MightyWarrior]

Haney believed his own hype and found out. He was massive when he bullied Loma and got a taste of his own medicine Sat night
