Oscar De La Hoya roasted manager Bill Haney on this week’s episode of Clapback Thursdays, saying he messed up his son Devin Haney’s career by suing Ryan Garcia for battery after his April loss held in Brooklyn, New York.
Oscar: Fire your dad, Devin!
De La Hoya says Devin needs to take control of his life and “fire” Bill. He believes he has ruined what was once a promising career for the former two-division world champion with his decision-making.
Oscar says that the lawsuit and Devin’s decision to remain inactive for an entire year have made his defeat much worse. Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) could have bounced back from this loss by now if he had gotten back in the ring instead of sitting out his loss.
According to De La Hoya, Haney needs to win his fight against Jose Ramirez on May 2 to get the rematch against Ryan in October.
If that’s true, there will be a lot of pressure on Devin when he faces former WBC and WBO 140-pound champion Ramirez (29-2, 18 KOs) in their joint fight on the Ryan Garcia undercard against Rolando. ‘Rolly’ Romero in Times Square in New York City.
“I feel bad for Devin Haney because you almost never hear him talk because his dad talks,” Oscar De La Hoya said during the week this week. Closing Thursday. “Sure, Devin had a bad loss this year, but it shouldn’t have been career-ending. It could have been fixed easily.
“If it wasn’t for his father and manager, Bill, who single-handedly turned it into a more toxic situation than Chornobyl. I’ve never seen such a crapshoot for a boxer’s career in my life. All Devin had to do after losing to Ryan Garcia last April was say, “He beat me.” I couldn’t block his left hook,” and then back to the gym.
“Instead of focusing on a comeback fight in 2024 and teaching his son how to block a left hook, Bill thought it was a better idea for Devin to sue Ryan for battery and emotional distress, to sue Golden Boy, for to sue the New York Athletic Commission to remove Devin’s loss from his record, to fight a civilian at the Orange Country State Fair, to take the rest of the year and make as many enemies as possible possible.They have cemented their legacy as the greatest crybabies in boxing history.
“Now, last week, Bill and Devin were in London, asking Turki for a payday because they have no other options. The only value Devin has in this sport is to fight Ryan Garcia again. So, Bill, being the pimp that he is, he took his son back to the wrestler who beat his ass so bad he had to sue him for battery.I couldn’t make this shit up, people.
“The (Garcia-Haney) rematch will happen this October, but on one condition. The Haneys have to drop their lawsuit against Ryan Garcia and Golden Boy. Of course, the Haneys are willing to let it go because they had no case I’ve never heard of a wrestler suing another wrestler for battery, and I’m sure we’ll never see it again unless Devin sues his next opponent.
Revenge on the line: Haney vs. Ramirez
“Anyway, taking the rematch is a pretty risky move because if Devin loses to Ryan again, we can all say goodbye to the Haneys. For Devin to get this fight, he has to get past a tough, hungry Jose Ramirez in May. Watch out , Jose If you hit him too hard, he might sue you next.
“Devin Haney, from one fighter to another, you need to take control of your life and career and fire your father. Everyone in boxing stood by and saw what happened this year, a year that you were supposed to shine. Now everyone sees that he is the problem. He (Bill) didn’t even stop the fight with Ryan Garcia when you were on the canvas.
“I hope you can come to your senses and decide to save yourself and part ways with your current manager before it’s too late. Unfortunately, it might already be,” De La Hoya said.
