Devin Haney, previously undefeated, faced a majority decision loss against Ryan Garcia. Still, the New York State Athletic Commission overturned Garcia’s victory, ruling it a no-contest and restoring Haney’s perfect 31-0 record. Haney has since been vocal about seeking a rematch with Garcia, emphasizing his determination for revenge. Let’s check out the details of their upcoming rematch.

Ryan Garcia’s win over Devin Haney on April 20, 2024, was marred by controversy after the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association found that Garcia had tested positive for Ostarine. Consequently, the New York State Athletic Commission handed him a one-year suspension.

Devin Haney promised to seek revenge in a rematch, stating, “I want to make him pay for the s*** that he did. In the ring, out the ring, however. I would love for my next fight to be Ryan Garcia… That’s the fight I want to get back in blood.”

The fight faced controversy starting from the weigh-in, where Garcia missed weight, followed by pre-fight antics by ‘King Ryan’ and a failed drug test. Devin Haney, whose previously unbeaten 31-0 record was reinstated after the commission ruled Garcia’s win a no-contest.

Haney revealed on social media his plans to take a lengthy break from boxing to travel and enjoy his earnings. Despite the allegations, Garcia maintains his innocence, asserting he hasn’t used any banned substances. With a one-year suspension now imposed, Garcia’s career future remains uncertain.
