Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney got fans talking again about a possible rematch. The two boxers recently showed some unexpected friendliness, which has people wondering if they'll fight again.
Last year, Garcia and Haney faced off in a match that ended with some problems. There were accusations about doping, lawsuits, and bad feelings between the two. But now, things seem to be changing.
Videos popped up online showing Garcia and Haney greeting each other warmly. Garcia even mentioned that Haney taught him how to play baccarat. Then, Garcia took things a step further by directly challenging Haney on social media, saying "Round 2 @realdevinhaney".
But there are some hurdles to overcome before a rematch can happen. Oscar De La Hoya, who promotes Garcia, said back in May that a rematch wasn't worth it because Haney's value was too low. Devin's dad and manager, Bill Haney, also didn't seem too interested, saying Garcia's actions both in and out of the ring put him low on the list of possible opponents.
Right now, Garcia is getting better after having surgery on his right hand. His last fight didn't go well - he lost to Rolando Romero. Haney, on the other hand, is getting ready for an important fight against Brian Norman Jr.
In a chat with Ring Champs, Haney mentioned that Garcia's team might still want the rematch, but they're thinking about having some warm-up fights first.
Fans are excited about the idea of these two facing off again. They're hoping for a great fight without any of the drama from last time.
Even though Garcia and Haney are at different points in their careers right now, lots of people are still hoping to see them in the ring together again.
