Haney Promises Punishment for Ramirez, Sets Sights on Garcia Rematch
World-class boxer Devin Haney is set to return to the ring tonight, facing Jose Ramirez in a highly anticipated 12-round welterweight bout. However, the conversation surrounding Haney and his team has been dominated by talk of a potential rematch with Ryan Garcia later this year.
According to Bad Left Hook, Haney, who boasts an undefeated record of 31-0 with 15 knockouts, and Garcia, who has a record of 24-1 with 20 knockouts, have not fought since their highly contentious bout over a year ago. The fight, which saw Garcia score three knockdowns and secure a decision win, was later overturned to a no contest after Garcia failed his post-fight drug test.
In a recent interview, Haney promised that his upcoming fight against Ramirez will be a defining performance. "I feel better than ever," Haney said. "I’m gonna shine. This is gonna be the best performance you’ve ever seen from me. He’s gonna get hurt," Bad Left Hook reported. Haney also made it clear that his sights are set on a rematch with Garcia, stating, "It all starts with Jose, and once I get past Jose, I’m gonna get to Ryan."
Haney’s father and trainer, Bill Haney, has also been vocal about the possibility of a rematch with Garcia. While plans are yet to be officially confirmed, it is likely that both Haney and Garcia will need to secure wins against their respective opponents tonight to make the rematch a reality. Garcia is set to face Rolly Romero in the main event from Times Square, and a win for both men could potentially pave the way for a highly anticipated rematch.
The stage is set for an exciting night of boxing, with Haney and Garcia both looking to make statements in the ring. As Bad Left Hook noted, a rematch between Haney and Garcia would not be the first time that boxing has worked to make a high-profile fight a reality, despite initial setbacks.
In the lead-up to tonight’s fight, Haney has been focused on his preparation and has expressed confidence in his abilities. As quoted by Bad Left Hook, Haney said, "I feel better than ever. I’m gonna shine." With his eyes firmly set on a rematch with Garcia, Haney will look to make a statement against Ramirez tonight and set the stage for a highly anticipated showdown later this year.
The boxing world will be watching with bated breath as Haney and Garcia take to the ring tonight, and the outcome of their respective fights could have significant implications for the sport. As reported by Bad Left Hook, a win for Haney and Garcia could pave the way for a thrilling rematch that would undoubtedly captivate boxing fans around the world.
