When asked about who would emerge victorious in a clash between these two rising stars, his response was unequivocal. “I think at this point, Devin Haney,” Garcia stated firmly. The interviewer, probing for more insight, asked, “Why?” Garcia’s reply was both straightforward and emphatic: “Look at his f***ing performance, he’s a f***ing badass bro. His performance was incredible.”
The conversation then shifted to the fighters’ amateur history, a point often used to gauge future match-ups. Garcia, however, quickly dismissed this angle. “But him and Ryan fought each other six times in amateur,” the interviewer pointed out. Unswayed, Garcia responded, “Na, that don’t mean sh*t, Devin Haney will beat Ryan Garcia.” This bold assertion underscores the evolving nature of professional boxing, where past amateur encounters may not necessarily dictate the dynamics of a professional bout.
Oscar De La Hoya made a provocative remark regarding the bout. Let’s see what it was!

Oscar De La Hoya stirs the pot
Following Haney’s triumph over Prograis, De La Hoya has been vocal about orchestrating this high-profile matchup, anticipating it to shatter Pay-Per-View (PPV) records. In a calculated move, he recently lauded Haney as “The best 140 pounder in the world” on social media, a likely tactic to incite Garcia.
De La Hoya’s tweet, ending with “Let’s break PPV records. Ryan Garcia,” not only challenges Garcia but also underlines the commercial potential of the fight. Negotiations are gaining momentum, as Bill Haney’s recent statements on social media suggest, setting the stage for what could be a historic showdown in boxing.
