Comments Thread For: Hearn: Whoever Wins This Fight, If It's Devin Haney, Regis Prograis, Should Fight Ryan Garcia

[Jab jab boom]

Imagine trying to argue that Ryan Garcia should get the winner of Haney and Prograis when you have Teo Lopez (who he’s making excuses for not even trying to negotiate with) or Subriel Matias, should he win his upcoming fight. That’s the problem with Hearn, he’s spent so much time fooling the British public with Aj, Callum Smith, Saunders, Benn etc , that he thinks everyone is a sucker.

Why not fight Tank ? Tank beat Ryan Garcia. There's probably more money in a Tank fight anyway , along with more risk , but according to Devin and Regis , they want to be great. Beating Ryan won't do much towards that , beating Tank definitely would.

why does all the roads lead to RGarcia? didnt he just lose by KO? why is he the king turd in the toilet? this dont make sense.

Money.

Yes after a Progtais win over Devin his worth will skyrocket

RooRoo lays Ryan out without Haney. Body shots, Ryan has tender ribs. I don't need to tell it, we all see it.

I'm going to be very interested in seeing how Tank does in his next PPV. If he doesn't have a really good dance partner, I suspect he'll be right back to his 250k average. Heck, even if he were fighting Shakur or Haney, I don't think he'll clear 1 million again.

Every fight was around 250k until Ryan Garcia, and then he did 1.2 million. That should tell you something about what Ryan brings to the table, and you're delusional if you think Ryan's fans are now Tank fans.

How precisely did Ryan Garcia earn a 140lb title shot again? What did Ryan Garcia ever actually achieve at 135lbs?? Hearn is confusing real boxing with DAZN Misfits Boxing.

not really - this is the way boxing is working now. Belt orgs are just letting the promoters prioritize money fights over inconvenient things like mandatories and eliminators

[SteveM]

Winner of this fight needs to fight somebody deserving. How's a dude that's only fought once at the weight and suffered a KO loss gonna get a title shot? Looks like the Romero situation all over again.

It is the Romero situation again - the belt orgs bend their own rules when they can make a much larger cut

they can beat Ryan and make money and be 'great'
or they can possibly lose to Tank (or Teo), make money and not be great
Easy choice

Two prerequisite todays boxers need to become superstars; huge social media followings and/or concussive knockout power…oh and a network
