    Respect to Ryan for actually having the balls to fight Devin, unlike other boxing divas. With that said though I can't see he him having any chance to get the W, I got Devin dishing out a Gatti Floyd level beating.

    Garcia has always had guts, just not a strong mind. Haney will outbox him.

    Is Garcia just cashing out? Is this the largest money fight he can make?

    His problem is he has no ranking, belt or stature to justify his hype or his desired purse split against the actual top guys.

    He's had to take a reality check lately so I'm hoping he actually does try to make the fight and doesn't try to low ball Haney.

    And yet he probably has the biggest fan base and the highest gate and PPV #s.

    Agreed. What pisses me off about him is that he calls out all the top guys with these ridiculous offers and when they decline he says they're ducking him lol.

    That offer he gave to Teo was absolute bull****, considering Teo's accomplishments and being the guy at 140. Ryan hasn't even been a world champion smh

    Yep he's the undisputed Facebook-Instagram-Tiktok champion, otherwise known as the A-side.

    Garcia is a clown... he wants to fight with the best but he doesn't improve in the things he should... he is still an incomplete boxer... he is still a boxer in progress... he is not yet ready for anyone relevant... it's like wanting to go to take the exam without studying well... it's a waste of time

    Yeahh this is just a publicity and money fight. I give him props for ducking no smoke, but he should have challenged someone like a Barboza or Garry Antuanne Russell first, before entering a fight he has no chance of winning

    No way Garcia bests him. Romero-Ryan was the good matchup.

    Neither does Jake Paul. Ultimately it's about the revenue a fighter brings to the event.

    You don't know how much longer he wants to stay in the sport.

    He is fighting the best while he is young
    So yeah in a sense it’s cashing out / striking while iron is hot - he won’t get much better if he don’t truly work on it.

    Teo said no
    So this one is next up
