Ryan Garcia (23-0, 19 KOs) stated that after the fight on April 22 in Las Vegas against Gervonts Davis (28-0, 26 KOs) and his victories, respectively, he is going to challenge the undisputed lightweight champion Devin Haney.
“Immediately after that, we call Devin Haney,” Garcia said on the Raw Talk podcast. - Give me Devin. This will be another prime fight. I fought him six times as an amateur. We need a seventh fight."
In 2021, Garcia had the opportunity to face Haney when, after defeating Luke Campbell, he secured the interim version of the WBC title and became a contender for the full lightweight belt. Ultimately, Garcia gave up defending his position and instead focused on organizing a fight against Davis. Two years later, Garcia's tireless search paid off.
