Each passing day adds a new chapter to the ongoing rivalry between Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney. After being sued by ‘The Dream,’ and receiving several verbal jabs, Garcia replied a few days ago. He maintained innocence and wrote, “I know in my heart I never took ster*ids. However it showed up in my system is a mystery. Furthermore, the 26-year-old also targeted the old relationship between Victor Conte and Haney indirectly by stating that the latter’s camp was already aware of the test results even before VADA. He termed this situation “very fishy.” 

Over the past week, this claim has taken over the internet. Conte did not stay silent and replied with a 14-year-old article interview of him where he claimed to always maintain the integrity of the sport. On Wednesday, Conte directly attacked all the critics and called out everyone sharing Ryan Garica’s POV.

Victor Conte replies to “Clowns”

Conte wrote on X, “Seems there is a need 2 set the record straight about allegations being made by some boxing podcast CLOWNS in regards to the @ryangarcia positive drug test result.” He wanted to make it clear that he had no inside information regarding the Victorville resident’s test result and called the latter’s allegations a lie.

He further wrote, “I have never at any time received any inside information about a positive test result from VADA.” But he accepted the fact that he works closely with fighters who are associated with VADA like Devin Haney. Conte further explained that if a fighter tests were positive, both sides “promptly get the information” and the camp’s attorneys pass the information on.

He then defended himself and the Haneys and called every internet theorist a clown. “There is absolutely no evidence of any wrong doing by me or anybody on Team Haney. These boxing podcast CLOWNS are simply spreading lies & hoping for lots of clicks & views,” stated Conte.

The SNAC founder continued by challenging Ryan Garcia to provide some proof and launching a brutal attack on the 26-year-old boxer.

Ryan Garcia and his pending lawsuits

Conte stated, “If @ryangarcia or anybody else has any credible evidence of wrong doing then please come forth with it.” He was clear that Garcia and everyone else should stop with these theories and come up with proof. All these baseless arguments will do nothing of the matter.

The 74-year-old then proceeded to remind Garcia of all the active lawsuits he is involved in. He wrote, “Boxing is still waiting for the many lawsuits that @ryangarcia promised. Nobody can produce any credible evidence of wrong doing because there is none.” As of now, the 26-year-old is involved in at least 3 lawsuits, including the one with Devin Haney. On the other hand, Logan Paul has also filed a defamation lawsuit against Garcia after the latter’s social media post alleging that the PRIME hydration brand could harm consumers.

Golden Boy Promotions also had an active case against Ryan Garcia where the company alleged that the 24-1 boxer violated the contract and tried to exit early. Which resulted in substantial financial loss for the company.

While we don’t know about other cases and lawsuits, we know that the Haney-Garcia saga is far from over. We can expect a reply from Garcia pretty soon, as he is not the silent type.
