Devin Haney’s father, Invoice Haney, says they received’t begin negotiations for a rematch with Ryan Garcia till his PED case has been handled and Devin’s report modified from his loss final April.
Haney’s Diminished Leverage
Devin Haney (31-1, 15 KOs) isn’t in a robust place to name the pictures with Ryan Garcia, particularly after at this time’s purse bid information of High Rank being the lone bidder for his combat towards WBC obligatory Sandor Martin.
In the present day’s low purse bid means that Haney’s market worth has plunged since his loss to Ryan, making Invoice’s calls for unreasonable. It’s necessary that Invoice not anger Ryan as a result of he’s Devin’s finest likelihood for one more massive payday.
Haney’s recognition has plummeted since his loss to Ryan, and the boxing public hasn’t been sympathetic to Invoice’s makes an attempt to whitewash what occurred by blaming his defeat on the optimistic PED take a look at for Kingry.
“Invoice Haney tells ESPN he’s not participating in negotiations for any combat till [Ryan] Garcia’s doping case is adjudicated and Haney’s report is accordingly adjusted,” mentioned Mike Coppinger on X
High Rank’s Lone Bid and Hearn’s Disinterest
High Rank received with a bid of $2.42 million, and Devin will obtain $1,524,600 of that complete. That’s a low quantity in comparison with what Haney acquired for his combat with Ryan Garcia final April, and it exhibits how dangerous issues are for him.
The scenario for Haney received’t be higher after his title protection towards Sandor Martin. Not one of the different prime fighters at 140 will present Haney with the payday he acquired from his combat with Ryan and the possibilities he’ll lose to raised fighters within the division.
If Haney strikes as much as 147, he’ll be compelled to combat more durable opposition and can lose the dimensions benefit he loved at 140. Haney will probably be meals for giant fish at welterweight, and his profession will sink quick.
“We don’t have a contract with Devin. It’s not an interesting combat; it wasn’t a combat DAZN was motivated by or one which had any worth. Devin is a free agent and has his personal promotional firm,” mentioned promoter Eddie Hearn to Ariel Helwani on X, speaking about why Matchroom didn’t bid on Devin Haney’s title protection towards WBC obligatory Sandor Martin, which he had beforehand really useful he take subsequent.
You already know issues have been dangerous for Haney when his former promoter, Eddie Hearn, didn’t need something to do with bidding on the Sandor Martin combat. Haney should really feel deserted proper now, and Invoice ain’t serving to him by establishing situations for Ryan to satisfy.
