Ryan Garcia defeating Devin Haney caused most of the boxing world to go into shock. It was the first time that Haney was knocked down several times, and he even suffered his first professional loss. Furthermore, what caused the result of the fight to be shocking was certainly Garcia’s antics before the fight. As such, Bill Haney recently reflected on his son’s loss and blamed Floyd Mayweather and Garcia for being unfair.
During the official weigh-in for the fight, Garcia controversially chugged a beer and came in 3 pounds extra. This caused him to pay a hefty $1.5 million fine, after which Haney’s team agreed to move forward with the fight. However, Haney’s WBC super-lightweight title was no longer at stake since Garcia did not weigh 140 pounds. As such, Bill reflected on this 3-pound weight advantage and mentioned how Mayweather and Garcia planned it.

Bill stated that Garcia’s game plan was successful, and he was able to land his devastating left hooks on Haney. Subsequently, he does not want to take away Garcia’s credit for his victory over the plan that he and Mayweather had. This was a reference to how Mayweather had instructed KingRy to have a 3-pound advantage.
This was confirmed by Garcia himself, who proclaimed this fact by sharing a screenshot of a FaceTime with Mayweather. In the screenshot, both of them showed the number three with their fingers. In addition, Garcia had also stated that he intended to weight bully Haney during the fight.
