Full breakdown of Ryan Garcia vs Devin Haney

last item I want to take time to look at is revisiting a Ryan Garcia and Devon Haney fight from last Saturday night you know I'm not happy with Ryan Garcia in this respect I saw this weren't allowed to show you these highlights until today Ryan Garcia definitely handled his business he beat up Devin Haney Devin Haney got exposed in this disregard he got exposed as having a questionable chin and even his boxing skills which I think are superb came into question because even when he was hurt he didn't know how to back up see when you compare yourself to Floyd Mayweather remember Floyd weather Floyd Mayweather could get on a bicycle and beat your ass he could beat you moving backwards that's how gifted and skilled he was Devin Haney didn't even know how to fight backwards once he got hurt he knew how to grab and hold or he stood right in front of Ryan Garcia to get checked so now Devin Haney went from an undefeated champion who had moved up to the 140 PB division to be in somebody now we now have to ask ourselves is that why you didn't want to fight Shakur Stevenson because here's what I have people in the boxing Community telling me Shakur Stevenson knew that could happen to Devin Haney so he wanted to be the first one to Expos it rather than him getting caught by Ryan Garcia because he knew he had a questionable chin remember Adrien Broner once told us that when Javon Davis was in the ring with Devon hany is superb of a box as Devon Haney was once javante Davis checked him and hurt him if that were a real fight he would have been finished remember that and now here we are seeing what we saw now Ryan see her the reason I'm not happy is because you should be responsible enough to be disciplined enough if you agreed on 140 PB fight meet the damn weight limit if I was Devon Haney I wouldn't afford him unless you meet 140 PBS I don't give a damn that you drained yourself training for javante Davis and you came in two week that's a personal problem you want me to give you this fight you got to show up at 1440 lbs what Devon Haney did was say I bet you $500,000 per pound so you gave him the to come in 3 lbs overweight he gives you a check for $1.5 million but he bet on himself reportedly and ended up getting 10 to 12 million meanwhile he came into the ring and even though it wasn't for the title because he was wasn't eligible for the title because he came in over the weight limit and you got to keep your title as a result you still lost in a very public platform conspicuously and and unceremoniously he gave it to Devon Haney left hook couldn't take it straight right there all day to connect with Devon hay who couldn't seem to move out of the way of Ryan Garcia's bunches and that was what Ryan Garcia clearly out of shape clearly wind it having not taken a fight as seriously as people said that he should have and he even acknowledged that he normally would this is not a good look for Devon Haney not at all for Ryan Garcia it is but it shouldn't be you fight for 140 lb show your ass up at 140 lb anybody could sit up there and and preserve their strength but not meeting the responsibility of a weight limit that you're obligated to meet for the fight that's not fair and those three pounds from listening to Shawn Porter and Clarissa Shields makes a big difference when you don't have to drain yourself of those three pounds the night before the fight so Ryan Garcia might look good but he shouldn't but since you went through all of this you clearly want another shot at javante Davis I'd sign up for that I'd sign up for Ryan Garcia versus tiimo Lopez I'd sign up to see that fight too don't even think about going against Terence Crawford at 147 don't you do that to yourself don't you do that to yourself Ryan Garcia don't get too happy I respect the hell out of you you gifted quickness speed the whole bit lightning quick left took no doubt but you were a bigger stronger fighter against Devon Haney who was just foolish enough to get in the ring with you even though he was smaller with theid of that power and I think it's gonna cost Devon Haney because now we don't we know what's gonna happen to him if he went up against Javonte Davis and we suspect now what would happen to him if he went up against Shakur Stevenson so Devin Haney went from being here to dropping off because he got to the ring with a bigger stronger fighter who he allowed to be even bigger and stronger by not obligating him to meet that weight limit damn damn one last topic I'm going to get into the
