Devin Haney says a rematch with Ryan Garcia is his priority for 2025. He believes he will prevail “on the court.” He mentioned it repeatedly in his interviews on Saturday, and it sounded like a broken record.
A rematch is inevitable
Haney clearly considers a rematch with Garcia a priority because he needs it for these reasons:
- It's the biggest payday
- Restores His Credibility as a Fighter: This will likely be a short-term thing because Haney is going to have problems anytime he fights someone with power.
- Keeps his career going: Again, another short-term thing. Devin is clearly a sinking ship and can only be kept above water with Turk's help for a limited time, as we saw with Deontay Wilder. If Hani continues to lose, Al-Sheikh will not continue to throw him a lifeline so that his career does not sink.
Former two-division world champion Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) is still playing with a PED card, using it as an excuse for his loss to Ryan (24-1, 20 KOs) last April in Brooklyn, New York.
He probably won't stop talking about it, and he probably won't pollution Preparing for their rematch, and using it to rebuild his credibility with the fans who abandoned him.
Promoting a Haney-Garcia 2 rematch would be ugly if Devin constantly brought up Ryan's positive test for Ostarine in every interview, using that as a misleading promotional tool. Hopefully Haney doesn't stoop to that level, thinking fans will see that as the reason Ryan was blown out of the water last April. They won't.
Melody
Hani says he met with Turki Al-Sheikh in London and made a “plan” for 2025. Devin is expected to fight a tuning battle against the team Soft discount In March before facing Garcia in a rematch.
However, there is a risk if Turk picks someone who is a little better than Hani because he could take a hit or look bad if the fighter has any power. If Turki insists on putting Haney in a live body, it could be the end of his career because they will finish what Garcia started.
Devin's fighting style involves a lot of punching, repetitive clinching, and movement. His fights against George Kambosos Jr. and Regis Prograis showcase Haney's fighting style to a T. The way Haney fought against these two is his style, and it's not very fun to watch, but it's effective against this level of opposition.
Rematch priority
“We don't know. Turk, Your Excellency, has made a plan for me, and you guys need to stay informed. Trampling ground When asked who he will fight next in 2025. “In 2025, these fights (Ryan Garcia and Teofimo Lopez) should happen. I think it will happen, and like I said, I'm excited for 2025.
“Ryan Garcia,” Haney said when asked about his preference for a fight in 2025. “This fight has question marks. It's unfinished business. We're on a fair playing field, on an even playing field; we know I'll win,” Haney said when asked how the rematch with Ryan would go.
“There's no bad blood with Eddie (Hearn).” If opportunity comes his way and we can work together, it will happen. If not, I appreciate Eddie for everything he did for me. He put me in his position. “He gave me a chance in the beginning, and I can't appreciate him enough for that,” Haney said.
