Ryan Garcia posted on social media today, saying, “Case dismissed,” thanking his lawyer, Michael Goldstein, but not saying for which case. If this is for the Devin Haney case, it had a quick ending, but when you can afford a top-level attorney like Ryan can, this is how it goes.
Fans are assuming that Kingry is referring to the lawsuit Haney recently filed against him for their fight last April, but it’s unclear if that’s the one.
Ryan immediately followed that post with a question to his followers, asking them if they wanted him to beat Haney again, and they answered in the affirmative.
Given Bill Haney’s upbeat attitude and request that Garcia enroll for drug testing within 48 hours for a rematch with Devin (31-0, 15 KOs) to happen next, it could be viewed as a softening of his side to pursue an expensive lawsuit.
That would have been costly, and it might have jeopardized Haney’s chances for a lucrative rematch against Ryan in 2025. A rematch is Haney’s best way to make millions and get back to where he was before his loss to Ryan earlier this year.
If Haney wins in a competitive match-up, we could see a trilogy if it brings in a lot of PPV buys. Considering how much attention their fight created afterward, it’s predictable that their rematch will bring in massive PPV buys, perhaps even more than Ryan’s fight against Gervonta Davis in 2023.
Bill Haney would need to ramp up his game to create interest because Ryan can’t single-handledly drive the promotion for the rematch, and Devin won’t be much help obviously. He’s better when he’s not speaking.
CASE DISMISSED
