Haney also stated that he prefers Ryan Garcia in the fight with Gervonta Davis: “I want him to win because I want the biggest fights to take place. He showed interest in fighting me, so this is the guy I want to win. The tank didn't show much interest in fighting me."
Haney touched on the topic of a possible fight with Shakur Stevenson in the future: “I like that he challenges me to a duel, I respect that. I remember there was a time when no one called my name. I'm just happy about it. I'm the guy with the belts, so it's no surprise that everyone wants to fight me. Shakur knows the people to call to make this fight happen.”
