Oscar De La Hoya in Ryan Garcia Vs. Devin Haney Re: “No Need”
Golden Boy Promotions boss Oscar De La Hoya says he would rather Ryan Garcia forgo his rematch with Devin Haney and fight WBO light welterweight champion Teofimo Lopez instead.
With Ryan’s popularity and huge following on social media, a fight between him and Teofimo (21-1, 13 KOs) will bring a lot of pay-per-views on DAZN.
No need to re-sync
Teofimo is still seen as an undefeated fighter in many people’s eyes and is a matchup that attracts fans worldwide as his loss to George Kambossos Jr. is a narrow one that could go either way. That’s when Theo got sick and injured.
Turki Al-Sheikh He is reportedly negotiating a rematch between Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney. He still doesn’t quite sit well with De La Hoya, a one-sided 12-round Bay Area native who already sees Devin defeated by Garcia.
Hani needs to get back in line because he has a chance against Kingry and he completely fails. All this whining Hani has since said is bad about Ryan’s failed test, which shows he can’t admit he’s been beaten. If the rematch happens, you can bet that Honey will use Ryan’s failed PED test as his marketing ploy throughout the promotion.
Image concerns
It’s a big negative for Ryan’s career, reminding fans that Devin and his father, Bill, are positive about him in every interview. Even if Ryan wins again, his image will be forever tarnished by the Hannies’ constant bad mouthing.
If Honey tries to railroad Ryan into agreeing to VADA against his will, there could be problems. He has doubts about Devin and his father, Bill Haney, pushing him too hard.
There is no point in fighting Kingery against Hani, a defeated opponent when De La Hoya beat him soundly on April 20 last year. It’s not enough to recycle without a real reason other than money. Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs) can do a lot more.
The golden boy scheme
“Personally, I don’t need anything. Ryan destroyed it, and that’s the main thing,” Oscar De La Hoya said. Fight Hub TV As for him, he sees no need for a rematch between Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney. “We have to fight as hard as we can.
“There are fighters that we can match Ryan with anybody and make a great event. If[Kingri and Teofimo]are the best right now and that’s what people want to see, then we have to do it,” De La Hoya said.
A fight between Ryan and Theo sells and creates fan interest. However, Hani isn’t a PPV attraction, lacks charisma, and doesn’t have much to say in interviews. His father, Bill Haney, keeps fans interested in the fight. Dave already had his chance, so he blew.
Haney had no game in that fight and the only reason he saw the final bell was because the referee saved him in the seventh round.
