Comments Thread For: WBC Designates Devin Haney 'Champion In Recess,' Orders Martin-Puello Title Fight

[Boxingfanatic75]

Garcia ruined Huggies and proved what we already knew; weak chin and he won’t fight anmnother fighter under 30 from here forward. That was a short lived reign

I'm reading these comments and I shake my head in disgust. These casuals just don't get it. Folks can't see that Haney, who was showing signs of being punch drunk before the Garcia fight, is currently damaged goods. He fought a physical battle against Garcia, and was severely damaged. Garcia cheated in every way imaginable to secure the victory. Garcia really got off easy. Haney really needs an extended period to repair his body; he is more than likely shot physically, emotionally, and mentally. He probably should not be ring for at least a year.

TBH, he's probably never gonna be the same.

Boxing Historians can refer to cases like Cotto VS Margarito and Collins VS Resto.

His schtick is up. He’s been shown to be what all already knew. Garcia is a really good fighter but not even top tier. Huggies and Daddy Huggies knows his career is over. Top tier fighters with any power whatsoever will walk him down and destroy his fragile chin.

I see this as part of Haney's legal pursuit. claiming he is “physically, mentally and emotionally” unfit because of Garcia's actions. He very well could be all of those things. And if I'm on his team, why come back so soon for a low $ fight against a spoiler like Sandor Martin? If more PED users get sued and lose maybe that will help the PED problem. Wilder sued Povetkin and won.

Sometimes I read how golden age boxers wouldn't be able to compete with today's superior athletes. Give me a break. They would have already fought 3 more times against superior boxers. No time for the PMS that Haney is suffering from. OMG! He needs time to process his emotions.

Oh man! Huggies lol His value just went down the drain. He been found out and ruled EXPOSED!. Aside from this there’s a lot of typos . Garcia failed THREE tests. And somebody else that is waiting in LIME for something else. Puello beating Russell by split decision; that card favoring Gary ANTUANNE Russell is criminal. 118-109! Lame @&$ middle name. ******. The right man won.

I thought the WBCs decision was both fair and just. You cannot expect a fighter of Devin Haney's statue to rush back from taking such a potentially career altering beating which affected his overall bottom line. His marketability and earning power. That Garcia bout cost Haney in the $Millions as only one promoter bid for the fight and that was Top rank because most boxing promoters believe that he is damaged goods now. Which is why Haney is being forced to sue Garcia for losses and damages from their fight.

Haney trying to go from Email Champ to Lawsuit Champ. ****ing clown.

You really think that would solve the problem? Really? When all who are not in VADA 24/7 have, currently or will use? Please…the sport would go bye bye. They are all using. One was caught and the other wasn’t.

Sandor Martin v underrated. Will Haney fight him if he wins this one?

He's a tricky fighter
