Things aren’t looking good for the Ryan Garcia vs. Devin Haney fight, folks! In the not-so-distant past, reports surfaced online suggesting ticket sales for the fight were low. Something Garcia took immense offence at, as he outright rejected the idea! However, with mere days left in the fight, the Victorville native is offering people money to watch his fight!

Garcia and Haney will look to knock each other’s noggins off for the WBC super lightweight title, currently in Haney’s possession. However, before the bell rings on Saturday night in Barclays Centre, Brooklyn, New York, Garcia hopped on social media to reveal he has paid $100,000 to twelve women to attend the fight and cheer for him. 

Turning to X yesterday, Ryan Garcia wrote, “100k offered to 12 Woman Just come to the fight in front row And cheer me on!! Let’s go.” Moreover, at the time of writing, even though a majority of seats are sold out, many are still unoccupied, as per Ticket Master. As to why these seats aren’t sold, there are several potential reasons.

First of all, the fight is eerily close to Canelo Alvarez’s fight against Jaime Munguia, an all-Mexican bout. So, people might not want to shell out money for both events, especially the Mexican fan base, because the Canelo fight is on the Cinco de Mayo weekend. Second, the venue could also be a potential reason, as big fights are often held in Las Vegas!

However, all that is speculation. There’s always a chance of people cleaning out the tickets at the last moment, but with time, it seems highly unlikely. Ticket sales aside, here’s what’s in store for the people who have bought the tickets.
