Invoice Haney remains to be attempting to alter followers’ minds and re-write historical past about his son, Devin Haney’s loss to Ryan Garcia earlier this yr. He nonetheless appears fairly bitter about Haney’s loss, which has taken away the aura of invincibility from the previous King.
Papa Haney took to social media right this moment to level out that the three judges’ had Devin (31-0, 15 KOs) successful eight of the twelve rounds in opposition to Kingry of their battle on April twentieth on the Barclays Middle in Brooklyn, New York. He even produced the scorecards to show it. Invoice comes throughout like he’s attempting to whitewash what occurred on that darkish, chilly evening.
The factor is, Haney would have gained the battle if he’d made some changes after the seventh spherical by taking away Ryan’s left hook. That’s all he needed to do. Invoice ought to have lit a hearth below Devin’s bottom after the seventh to maintain his proper hand up to remove Ryan’s left, however he didn’t do it.
Sadly, Garcia knocked Haney down thrice in that battle, hitting the deck laborious within the seventh, tenth, and eleventh rounds. It was fairly brutal to look at from the seventh spherical, particularly with the referee deducting some extent from Ryan with out warning for hitting on the break.
“Everybody else that bought it twisted, Devin walked away and mentioned God doesn’t make any errors. Eight rounds clear. Eight rounds gained. Throughout ALL the choose’s scorecards. The Ostarine man can preserve his knockdowns, fact at all times. So does the Haney identify. Locked in,” mentioned Invoice Haney on X.
Haney one way or the other went the gap however misplaced a 12-round majority choice. The defeat was later overturned and dominated a no-contest as a consequence of Garcia testing optimistic for the banned PED Ostarine.
Haney may run it again with Garcia in 2025 after Kingry’s year-long suspension expires. That’ll contain some powerful negotiations. Ryan is predicted again in April, however he’s unlikely to take a top-level fighter instantly. There’s some good money that Haney could make in that second battle if they’ll put collectively a deal.
A clip of Haney coaching within the gymnasium was posted right this moment, and he seems in good condition. His weight is down, and he shouldn’t have an issue returning to the ring in early 2025. Teofimo Lopez talked about not too long ago that he’d made a $2.4 million provide with a 55-45 break up to Haney, which he declined.
If Haney is popping down that sort of cash, it nonetheless hasn’t registered with him that he’s been overwhelmed and must climb his approach again to the place he was earlier than. That is typical, although. With a whole lot of overwhelmed fighters, it doesn’t register with them that they’ll’t command the identical paydays after they’re schooled.
🥊 Devin Haney is again within the gymnasium sharpening his instruments!!!
