Ryan Garcia has thrown out some scathing jabs following the recent Orange County fight controversy against Devin Haney. Haney, who holds world titles in multiple weight classes, was seen getting involved in a brawl at the Orange County Fair. Ryan Garcia criticized Haney for physically attacking a civilian and appeared angry at his former opponent. Garcia had made a series of posts attacking Haney and even hinting at a possible investigation by the boxing commission.
Garcia began by saying, “He couldn’t even take down a civilian.” He then got in Devin Haney’s face and questioned his self-proclaimed status as a role model, saying, “You actually hit somebody while your whole team is jumping on a guy… The thing is, he hits so softly that they might let it slide and call it a play fight.” Well, all of this started when a 27-second clip showed Devin Haney and his friends getting into a physical altercation with a man in the crowd.
Although the exact reason for the feud and the identity of the victim are not confirmed, it was Haney who started the conflict. The boxer threw the first punch, after which his group of friends also joined in. Interestingly, even in the midst of this vicious physical attack, the civilian bravely fended off all the attacks and did not let himself fall to the ground. As the intensity of the attacks increased, the police sirens went off, after which Haney and his friends dispersed.
However, there is an ulterior motive behind Ryan Garcia’s verbal attacks. Garcia recently faced Devin Haney and surprisingly achieved a dominant victory. However, shortly after Garcia’s glorious triumph, the controversial boxer tested positive for doping. This proved to be devastating for the boxer as he was stripped of his victory and banned for a year. To make matters worse, Ryan Garcia was also fined $1.1 million after being expelled from the WBC.
And that was not the only case of Ryan Garcia gets into controversy. In the lead-up to his fight with Haney, Garcia posted a series of cryptic posts on his social media. The extent of it was so great that people once believed the boxer had been captured by kidnappers. Some of his interactions also raised doubts about whether or not Garcia was under the influence of Co***ne. With a new controversy brewing, it remains to be seen how Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney will continue their rivalry.
