Comments Thread For: Did Bigger Make Better? Ryan Garcia Overpowers Devin Haney in Shocker

[eco1]

Im annoyed because I had a bet on Garcia by KO and the ref saved Devin so many times from getting stopped but still the power was the difference. Haney was the better boxer but everytime Ryan landed clean on him he was hurt. Ryan proved alot of people wrong with that win

If García would have press the pedal and go forward he would've taken Loma's son out of there ref or no ref.
I picked Haney close cause I thought the ref and judges would try to do a number on García, before the fight yesterday I asked about García Ko'ing Haney and some people laughed.

I am happy I lost my pick!!!! Good for Ryan!!!!!

thats on haney

he had a choice not to fight after weight-in

Ryan paid him 500k per pound he missed. Shoulda taken the free money and not fight.

now his ass is exposed and a lot of power punchers are lining up to whoop haney’s @ss cos it’s free money

It is what it is. Still doesn't take away how wack and unprofessional that was.

Triangle theory is generally chit but it sure does make Tank look good right about now... As the smaller man Tank out boxed Garcia, dropped him twice and knocked him out with relative ease. Tank vs Garcia rematch at 140lbs is the one to make

You don't know what you are talking about. Tell me something Garcia did outside those three knockdowns?

You're too ****** to comprehend anything outside your pea brain. He lost the fight so deal with it moron. You're an annoying breed of human. And you just won't go away. Idiots breed more Idiots.

At 147 lbs., bigger boxers will land heavier shots on an already suspect Haney chin. Haney is best at boxing, moving and hoping for a decision. Haney's punching power? Haney never had a punch to begin with. So adding more weight to his frame will make him less of a puncher than he already is - which is a 2 on a scale of 10, being generous.

One good thing about last night is that whenever a boxer comes in over weight, whether it's your favorite fighter or his opponent, we can never use that the fighter came in overweight and that's the only reason he won. Because the complete absence of acknowledgement that Ryan shrugged off training for this fight has made all future arguments null and void! So the next fight that YOUR guy comes in on weight and his opponent and goes on to win the fight I dont want to hear "he only won because....." please STFU!!

Haney was always lacking in the chin and power departments and Garcia always had speed and power so I don't think the weight made the difference.

Regardless, it was a surprisingly exciting fight. I scored it the same as the one judge. 114 - 110.

Boots will do bad things to him.

I'm sure he would

That said, I'd tell him to fix thar horrible flaw he has of pulling back with his chin very high. So many fighters have caught boots flush because of it. None of them had the hand speed of Garcia either.

If boots doesn't improve on that, Garcia would certainly hit him plenty while he's still in there.

haney has made a mistake with his weights

he should actually be moving down the scale to 130 instead

last fight with prograis he was coming into his man strength and filling out into the weight

now hes a sitting duck at this weight

what next?

This is what happens to weight bullies when they fight someone their own size
