WBC super lightweight champion Devin “The Dream” Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) and super lightweight contender Ryan “KingRy” Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs) hosted a media workout at the historic Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn to promote their PPV clash on Saturday night.
Devin Haney: “I mean none of Ryan’s antics has really gotten under my skin. I’m a true professional. When I get into that ring, I am going to do my job. No matter how I feel, no matter what Ryan shows up, or whatever he says. He can say whatever he wants to say. I am going to let my hands talk in the ring on Saturday night…I just want to show how I am levels above this guy.”
Ryan Garcia: “It’s right in front of your face! How am I going to miss weight?! I am just a motherf***er on a mission. I am still here, I am strong, and I am ready to destroy him. If Devin doesn’t land face first, then I did something wrong…the social media is all just noise! I post something and then people think I’m crazy. I know what I am doing, and I’m in the middle of a promotional fight.”
I’d even stake my life on Haney’s victory!
Yea I believe you
Wise choice. Ryan may never become a champion. The Rolly right was his only chance and Rolly ran from him.
are you that stupid?
Lol Haney says he’ll let his hands do the talking? Buahaha! He then proceeds to let his big mouth do the talking before he lets his feather fists do the talking!
Can’t stand either of these clowns I hope they score a double knockout good riddance. Then they can have their equally big mouthed dads do the rest of the talking with no one listening!
Do that. Get someone to kill you if he doesn’t
Ryan look big strong and hydrated
If he makes the 140 Haney is in trouble
Haney always looks bigger than his opponent come fight night. He looked like he was 25 pounds heavier than Lomachenko when they fought.
That sounds like an excuse. Pernell and Manny were always smaller and found a way. Mike Tyson was smaller. Rocky Marciano was smaller. I can go on and on.
Excuse for who ???
Ryan is not small I’m saying that he might not make the weight
haney was easily two divisions bigger than Loma, and there is a reason why he would not give Loma a rematch. #1 He knew he was lucky to escape with a decision. #2 he was struggling to make weight.
But anyhow I’m staying with Haney by decison.
The odds are worth a flyer on Garcia for his fans, but not worth laying down on Haney. the only way garcia wins is by ko as he cannot outbox haney over 12 rounds.
Garcia definitely looks healthier than he did against tank so the weight will help.
But Haney wins easily if he stays back and jabs and boxes smartly. But if he attempts to go to the body with the right hand I could see Garcia’s counter left catching haney and putting him down. That’s Garcia only chance to win in my opinion, with a counter on a mistake by Haney.
But I will not be betting on this one.
Depends there are runners to runners
When you run because you are dominating the fight
And when you run because you are being dominated by your opponent
Haney is the one who has just one way to win …. By decicion
Ryan can win by Dec or ko
I also believe haney will pitty pat his way to the victory
Nordic, and Loma still beat him. Haney knows it too. I remember his pitiful look as he was leaving the ring and getting booed.
And lomachenko won
Go home and get your shine box. Pot Smoking Ryan is going to get smoked.
So you think Haney is not smoking pot?:) 80% of them do – it’s good for mental and physical health. Most of them just to post videos with them stoned
Good for mental and physical health, wow we know you smoking it now do we! Explain how smoking weed that has probably 100 times more tar than a cigarette be physically healthful? Explain how smoking weed makes your mental health better when it’s filled with more psychedelics than ever before. Man, you have got to be an idiot and no decent boxer should ever use a substance like marijuana. Period.
Garcia has the hand speed to offset any fighter’s offense. However, Garcia’s defense is going to be his problem in this fight. As a fight progresses, Garcia tends to get lazy with his defense and his head sits straight up as a target. Haney’s jab and lateral movement will create problems for Garcia. Garcia will soon realize his offense alone will not work in this fight. His defense is mandatory for a win. Haney UD.
I agree scoob. Against someone like Garcia that laser jab is gonna be a big problem. Haney seems to have elite level self belief to match high skills. I think it’s dangerous for awhile but Haney pulls ahead the longer it goes
– I have decided to go to NYC on fight day, and patiently wait for ticket prices to drop like a rock.
– NYC here I come (again) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice!
Is it true that Ryan Garcia is walking out with AJ from InfoWars for the fight? I might have to support him if that’s the case.
that would be fun. AJ is an icon
Lets stop pretending we don’t know Haney is going to win. Some will used excuses about weight. They are the same weight and size. Haney has been sharpening his tool while Ryan has been a social medial star. That is the major difference. Ryan was in Canelo’s camp and had the opportunity to get better and test himself years prior to this fight and he chose not to.
Excuse from who ??? Ryan is not small Haney is not small
Excuses from who ???
Bottom line, point blank. Haney is going to fk Ryan Garcia up. Haney by TKO or KO. Unsure of which round.
I hope Haney flattens this punk ass!
A Garcia win would be a shocking upset. This seems to be one of the easiest big fight picks. Haney should get the ko.
When I say if Ryan make the weight I meant that he looks too big I don’t think he will make the weight
Now if he does then Haney is in trouble because Ryan a very strong in 140 lbs
But r now he looks like 147 lbs
If they fight at 135 Haney would win easily but Ryan at 140 is very powerful
Haney should win this easily enough, but I’ll admit that I hope Ryan knocks him out.
I see the other Pete is on this thread. I think we are even the same status. LOL! I have to go with Haney though. Ryan does has a punchers chance. One time Haney appeared vulnerable against Linares. For me it is not that he got hurt, it just seemed like he was unable to shake it off. That said he survived the moment and it was just that…a moment. While he may not be the biggest puncher Haney has shown his mental toughness by fighting in Mexico and going to Australia twice to move his career along. He fights tough competition and has a fighters attitude. I think Garcia has been mentally shaky ever since he got dropped by Luke Campbell. Even when he appears to be mentally breaking down though, he has bailed himself out with power both with Campbell and in his last fight. I just think that Haney will be putting too much on him and he will be mindful of Garcia’s left hook bail out. I actually think Haney will break him down and stop in mid rounds.
