    As soon as money runs low or the reality hits him that he has no other skill, he’ll be back.

    He'll come back as soon as he realizes no one cares that he ever left.

    No one is buying this fake announcement. Even if it is real, boxing loses nothing when a boring feather duster retires. Devin views himself way too highly.

    So he's been dropped in all ratings and has no titles now (did he get back the WBC belt)?

    Did he lose? I thought that decision would be deemed a no cotest.

    It hasn't as yet, as far as I know.

    And regardless, even if it's declared a no-contest, it'd still be viewed as a loss by enough viewers to make it difficult to sell?

    If you believe this grandstanding publicly stunt, you're exactly the kind of sucker PT Barnum was looking for back in the day!

    Not yet official as the commission hasn´t convened to make a final decision. But it will likely be a no contest, even if they rule that Garcia unintentionally ingested a contaminated product.

    Funny thing is that the company Garcia blames, they might launch a lawsuit here.

    Fighting a featherfisted opponent does nothing for him but maybe get his confidence up with a win. Devin is a good fighter but he's gonna have to prove he can deal with good punchers. I guess Prograis can punch but he barely touched him.

    Looks like Garcia snatched Haneys soul.
    Reminds me of when Pacman snatched Thurmans soul.
