Comments Thread For: Garcia Hits Out At Haney Fight Taking Place in New York

[4truth]

Ryan needs to take an estrogen blocker, then get back in the gym and train to be a fighter

Can’t wait until Haney beats the Diva out of Garcia.

this guy whines about everything... he is a tune up level opponent for haney its not some huge fight

I wish this kid would simply retire and concentrate on "influencing" people. He's a self obsessed, utterly spoiled diva.

Because he doesn't want his second biggest fight to be in New York? He's Mexican. They reign on the West Coast. It absolutely should be in LA, Houston or Vegas

Barclays and MSG are great venues for boxing. Real fans know who both of these guys are. This is not a casuals type of fight anyway. I have been to Barclays many times for boxing. Always a good crowd and always a good time. What is this nonsense about fighting in your backyard? That is only at the start of your career. The fight will sell and the place will be electric. And no, I am not a shill for the promoters, lol!

This fight is FIXED! Ryan gets dominated and taught a boxing lesson but gets the decision. That will keep Haneys rep up high still and Ryan benefits from the robbery to have him as an option for another big money fight vs the likes of teo, tank 2, Haney 2, Loma, or just about any other semi popular name. Disgraceful

It’ll be the same thing that happened with Loma then. It will give Haney an opportunity to “redeem” himself against any of the other popular names or a rematch

That is true but his fight with Tank sold 1.2 million PPV so this is a HUGE fight.
This fight will triple Haney’s PPV record so clearly Ryan is a much bigger name albeit terrible boxer.

There's nothing wrong with rich ***ers paying taxes.

Obviously, but I'm sure he'd rather not is what I'm saying. Boxers already lose nearly half their money to federal taxes. Losing another 10%+ with all the crazy city & state taxes in NYC is wild. And they are for sure gonna make less at the gate so less pay overall & more taxes making the net pay lower.

Its another dumb decision by GBP altho maybe they are getting some kind of kickback or something from Barclays so while the fighters make less, the promoters walk away with more than they'd make in Vegas so it makes sense to them.

Again tho the main issue isn't even the above to me. Its that they didn't figure this all out BEFORE they stated a venue. The Ryan & Oscar team suck at communicating & both are such divas they probably shouldn't even be working together.

You don’t think the Barclays Center is going to sell out for this fight? Of course it is.

New York City should get some big fights too, everything doesn’t always have to take place in Las Vegas or out west.

If taxes are the issue then Ryan should just come out and say that.

Why does Garcia care where the fight is, if confident of victory?

He is good box office no doubt, and credit for having fought Tank.

But he got dominated and ko'd, and Haney is the champion, so have to make concessions.
