Golden Boy promoter Oscar De La Hoya vented on Instagram tonight, roasting Devin Haney about celebrating his reversed choice from the Ryan Garcia struggle and his gripes about fee points.
De La Hoya implied that Haney’s marketability was the rationale for his fee issues from his struggle in opposition to Ryan on April twentieth. He instructed Haney that he may audit his firm to show he pays his fighters.
Oscar was additionally upset in regards to the inconsistencies within the PED penalties handed out by totally different sanctioning our bodies. He identified that Ryan Garcia was given a stiffer punishment than Canelo Alvarez and Shane Mosley.
Nevada handled these two. In distinction, the New York State Athletic Fee got here down onerous on Ryan, giving him a 12 months suspension. De La Hoya argues that one fee needs to be in management so the penalties are extra uniform.
Apparently, Ryan had complained early on about eager to struggle with Haney in Nevada for tax functions as a result of New York has greater state taxes. He felt the struggle would have been larger if it had been in Las Vegas. If Ryan had gotten his approach, he is perhaps a shorter suspension from Nevada with out shedding all that cash.
De La Hoya Questions PED Penalties
“Alright, guys, all people talked about Ryan Garcia. Now, it’s Pappy’s flip. To start with, I don’t condone PEDs in any way, interval,” mentioned Oscar De La Hoya on Instagram. “However let’s discuss in regards to the inconsistencies, the penalties, and the tens of millions of {dollars}.
“I don’t perceive it. We should always have a fee that oversees every thing in each state as a result of Canelo Alvarez will get popped in a unique state and will get six months. Shane Mosley will get popped and will get zero,” De La Hoya continued.
“So, you’re telling me Ryan Garcia will get a 12 months and tens of millions of {dollars}? That isn’t proper.
“You Do Not Promote”
“Let’s discuss Devin Haney now. Devin Haney, you’re pathetic. You’re dancing round at a bowling alley since you received your choice reversed. No person goes to overlook that beating you took,” mentioned De La Hoya.
Haney would possibly really feel it’s vital to nonetheless have his unbeaten document as a result of the networks would probably see him as extra precious, and the hardcore boxing followers who sustain with information can be impressed.
The community will not be as targeted on information as they’re on scores, and Haney hasn’t confirmed himself to be a PPV attraction. That overrides his nonetheless being undefeated as a result of unbeaten fighters are too widespread now, given how wily promoters shield them to attempt to create pretend stars.
Some would argue that Haney is an instance of a fighter who has been well-maneuvered by his handlers and has gotten by on being larger than his opponents. Haney’s finest wins have been in opposition to Vasily Lomachenko, George Kambosos, and Regis Prograis. Lomachenko was controversial.
Along with these two, Haney had crushed usually older, shopworn fighters. These have been the opposite notable fighters Haney had defeated: Joseph Diaz, Jorge Linares, Yuriorkis Gamboa, Zaur Abdullaev, and Alfredo Santiago.
“Oh, and let’s not overlook. You’re accusing me of not paying you. Bro, you simply don’t promote. That’s the underside line. You possibly can audit my firm anytime you need. I pay each fighter, and I’m fairly certain you bought that from Canelo from what he began,” mentioned De La Hoya.
Will Haney and his dad, Invoice Haney, take De La Hoya up on his supply to audit Golden Boy’s information to see whether or not they’re paying their fighters?
“So, bro, that one-year layoff, that retirement. Simply get pleasure from it. F*** you,’ mentioned De La Hoya to Haney.
Devin seemingly received’t take a 12 months off if he’s provided a candy deal for good cash in opposition to somebody he is aware of he can beat. He’ll seemingly agree if the Saudis wave a bunch of dough below Haney’s nostril to struggle in Riyadh in opposition to a comfortable contact. It must be rather a lot, particularly if the fighter is an effective one.
