Invoice Haney says Devin will take a full 12 months off to relaxation his physique and work on blocking the left Hook earlier than he returns to the ring in 2025. Devin Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) has been out of the ring for seven months since his loss to Ryan Garcia on April twentieth and appears shaken by that defeat.
Yr-Lengthy Timeout
Former two-division world champion Haney’s resolution to take a whole 12 months off means he’ll wait till Kingry’s year-long suspension expires in April 2025 earlier than he fights once more. Devin’s resolution to take a seat and stew on his loss for a whole 12 months, till Ryan is on the market, is just not precisely courageous, however there’s simply an excessive amount of cash at stake for him to place it in danger.
Nonetheless, that is an anticipated transfer as a result of it’s too dangerous for Haney to struggle somebody and probably lose. Getting overwhelmed would wreck the potential massive money rematch for Devin in opposition to Garcia. So, it’s good for Haney to take a seat and look ahead to Ryan as a result of whoever he faces could be swinging for the fences, trying to make the most of Dev’s susceptible chin.
If Haney had been one of many Gilded Age robber barons like JP Morgan, John D. Rockefeller, or Cornelius Vanderbilt, he would NOT sit for a 12 months with out staying as busy as attainable, profiting from his recognition to make tens of millions preventing the highest guys. Haney isn’t ruthless just like the super-rich robber barons and is lacking the braveness and ambition to get each final penny he can by being as busy as attainable.
