“Beat Your A***” – Devin Haney sharply criticized by UFC star
Devin Haney was recently called out on social media by the former UFC champion ahead of a potential rematch with Ryan Garcia later in the year.
Garcia and Haney fought for the first time in 2024, with “King Ry” getting the nod the night before the result was overturned after Garcia failed a drug test.
Over the past two years, many have called for a rematch and it seems closer than ever.
After defeating Mario Barrios, Garcia becomes the WBC welterweight champion.
Before the fight with “El Azteca”, “King Ry” was on the wrong side after losing points to Rolando Romero.
Haney is also in good form after the first meeting.
“The Dream” won both of his rematches, first returning against Jose Ramirez on the Garcia vs. Romero card.
He recently dethroned WBO world champion Brian Norman Jr., which was an impressive performance.
Despite both holding welterweight world titles, Haney revealed to Inside The Ring that he still has some reservations about a rematch with Garcia.
“I agree he has 10 million followers and that’s good.
“But ultimately Ryan screwed up the first fight.
“He basically just won the whole fight, he acted like he was crazy.
“So can we really trust this guy not to do it again?”
Former UFC world champion and Conor McGregor opponent Nate Diaz commented on the podcast moment, making it clear he disagreed with Haney.
“He scared the f**k out of you and kicked your ass.

“What are you crying about?”
Haney revealed that he is close to taking on the current world champion and the man who defeated Garcia, official Rolando Romero.
He first announced the ongoing negotiations in a post shared on his X profile.
“My father talked to Luis (Rolly’s manager). The rumors are true… Let’s see if we can do it, inshallah.”
Garcia’s next step remains unknown, but if he is to fight before his rematch with Haney, the two names he continues to mention are Shakur Stevenson and fresh Zuffa Boxing fighter Conor Benn.

Gigantic boxing returns to Anaheim this weekend as Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy promotes Arnold Barboza Jr (32-1) to fight Kenneth Sims Jr (22-3-1).
Sims Jr is Barboza Jr’s first test after losing a unanimous decision in his last match.
The 34-year-old was outclassed last time he faced Teofimo Lopez for the WBO super lightweight crown.
He was scored on all three judges’ scorecards, with two scoring him 112-116 and the third scoring him 110-118.
The Lopez vs. Barboza Jr fight took place on the historic Times Square card last May.
After over nine months of break, he returns for the first time, this time in the welterweight division.
Barboza Jr last fought at welterweight in 2019, where he forced Ricky Sismundo to retire in the fourth round.
Since moving up to super lightweight, the 34-year-old has scored several impressive victories against Sean McComb, Jose Carlos Ramirez and Jack Catterall.
His opponent, Sims Jr, is no exaggeration despite having three defeats to his name.
Sam Sims Jr last suffered a loss when he was defeated by majority decision against Oscar Duarte Jurado in August.
Before the defeat in the last match, “Bossman” was in good form, recording nine wins in the series.
Prediction: Barboza Jr should have more than enough to be confirmed to compete in the welterweight division.
Oscar Collazo vs. Jesus Haro
The co-main event sees one of the lower weight classes’ most thrilling stars return to action.
Oscar Collazo (13-0) will enter the bout undefeated with an impressive 77% knockout rate against Jesus Haro (13-3).
His last appearance was in September, when he scored a victory over Jayson Vayson, whom he stopped in the seventh.
Collazo has held the WBO minimumweight world title since May 2023, when he forced Melvin Jerusalem to retire on his stool after the seventh round.
Haro, 23, is fighting for a world title for the first time in his career, so he will be looking to cause an upset.
He lost on his debut by split decision and has since been defeated twice in the last five years.
Despite the losses, Haro has as many wins as Collazo entering the competition.
In May 2025, he defeats Jaime Guevara by knockout in the fourth round.
Prediction: Collazo should take his eleventh career break and it will prove to be too much for the 23-year-old.
Gabriela Fundora vs. Viviana Ruiz Corredor
Undisputed flyweight world champion Gabriela Fundora (17-0) returns to action on Saturday against Viviana Ruiz Corredor (10-2).
He puts all his belts on the line against Ruiz Corredor.

Fundora is on a remarkable 17-fight win streak since making his professional debut in 2021.
She won her first world title just two years after her debut in 2023, when she defeated Arely Mucino in the fifth round.
“Sweet Poison” enters this weekend’s fight on a three-fight winning streak, all coming in seven.

At just 23 years elderly, Fundora is one of the brightest stars in the sport and may look to fight in multiple weight classes in the future.
Prediction: Should have more than enough to stop a fourth straight fight against Corredor, who has never finished a match before the final bell.
Undercard remaining
Elsewhere in the event, former world title challenger Alexis Rocha (25-2-1) will face veteran campaigner Joseph Diaz (34-8-1) in a welterweight clash that will see Rocha fight for ten rounds.

There are also plenty of undefeated prospects, with Joel Iriarte (9-0) looking to maintain his perfect record against Rock Dodler Myrthil (17-2-1), and Fabian Guzman (9-0) also expected to be favored to extend his unbeaten streak against Julian Delgado (9-1).
Daniel Garcia (12-0) vs Blas Ezequiel Caro (12-9) in a airy heavyweight bout and will likely be confident of keeping his record intact, while Cayden Griffiths (7-0) will face Omar Ulises Gutierrez Munguia (8-2-1) and Grant Flores (12-0) will face Rashid Stevens (6-1-2) and several Gold contenders The boy is impressive on the card.
