Invoice Haney says Devin will take a full yr off to relaxation his physique and work on blocking the left Hook earlier than he returns to the ring in 2025. Devin Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) has been out of the ring for seven months since his loss to Ryan Garcia on April twentieth and appears shaken by that defeat.
12 months-Lengthy Timeout
Former two-division world champion Haney’s resolution to take a complete yr off means he’ll wait till Kingry’s year-long suspension expires in April 2025 earlier than he fights once more. Devin’s resolution to take a seat and stew on his loss for a complete yr, till Ryan is on the market, isn’t precisely courageous, however there’s simply an excessive amount of cash at stake for him to place it in danger.
Nonetheless, that is an anticipated transfer as a result of it’s too dangerous for Haney to combat somebody and probably lose. Getting crushed would wreck the potential large money rematch for Devin towards Garcia. So, it’s sensible for Haney to take a seat and await Ryan as a result of whoever he faces can be swinging for the fences, seeking to make the most of Dev’s susceptible chin.
If Haney had been one of many Gilded Age robber barons like JP Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, or Cornelius Vanderbilt, he would NOT sit for a yr with out staying as busy as attainable, benefiting from his recognition to make tens of millions combating the highest guys. Haney isn’t ruthless just like the super-rich robber barons and is lacking the braveness and ambition to get each final penny he can by being as busy as attainable.
Taking part in It Secure?
“All the fights are options. I believe in Devin, and I believe in his skills. I also believe in doing things right. I believe in trailblazing being compensated for the position he’s in, and having the right deal structure. It’s more about the deal structure than anything else,” mentioned Invoice Haney to Tru Media, speaking about his son, Devin Haney.
“One thing we can do is let him rest his body. He’s a young guy. He’s been traveling, he’s been fighting, and he’s been doing. There was a lot that went into the [Ryan Garcia] fight,” mentioned Invoice about Haney.
“He’s the one which mentioned he’s going to take off a yr, and I again his plan 100%. If he had mentioned that he desires to get again in 4 month’s time, I might have backed that too. He mentioned he desires to take a yr off. He didn’t say he’s retiring. In that yr, now we have an opportunity of seeing everyone else.
“We can be a fan. We can follow the sport. One thing I said was they still want to see us. I appreciate you for wanting to see us and following me, bro,” mentioned Invoice Haney.
