Ryan Garcia insists that he wasn’t on PEDs when he thrashed Devin Haney final April, and he sees that as a case of him making an attempt to whitewash what occurred to him that night time. Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs) explains that the REAL drawback for Devin was his ineptness at blocking his left hook, which he hit him with all night time.
Actual Cause?
Haney’s chin proved fragile, as he couldn’t deal with the heavy pictures from Ryan, and needed to stand up off the canvas thrice. He was down twice extra, however the referee Harvey Dock didn’t rely them. That was within the seventh spherical, which was the start of the tip for San Francisco native.
Kingry desires to complete the job in opposition to Haney in October, however first issues first. He’s received to maintain Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero on Turki Alalshikh’s Could 2nd Deadly Fury occasion at Instances Sq. in New York Metropolis. Sadly, Haney may not make it to the October battle in opposition to Garcia, as he’s received to beat former WBC and WBO gentle welterweight champion Jose Ramirez on the Could 2nd card.
Ramirez was as soon as the King of the 140-lb division, however losses to Josh Taylor and Arnold Barboza Jr, each shut affairs, have dimmed his star energy. The pictures that Taylor and Barboza Jr. took from Ramirez would give Haney many issues.
I don’t assume these sorts of punches will work, irrespective of how a lot working and clinching he does. The destructive fashion, nonstop holding sport plan that labored for Devin in opposition to George Kambosos twice gained’t be as efficient in opposition to Ramirez. However assuming Haney does make it previous Ramirez, he’ll have Ryan ready for him in October, which might finish badly for Dev and his dad, Invoice Haney.
Why Blame PEDs?
“Because I know I didn’t take steroids, it’s not going to be much different. The crazy thing is, they [Haney] want to keep on saying, ‘Oh, it’s because of the PEDs. I was fighting a guy that was on PEDs,’” stated Ryan Garcia to Ring Journal, speaking about Devin Haney and his dad, Invoice Haney, mentioning throughout interviews that he was on PEDs in the course of the battle on April twentieth final yr.
“PEDs don’t help you block a left hook. He didn’t block any of it, and he got his a** handed to him. I guess, for me, it’s just proving I’ll do it again. It was pretty one-sided,” stated Garcia about his battle with Haney.
