The undefeatead 140-pound titleholder Devin Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) will reportedly face Ryan Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs) in a pay-per-view battle of 25-year-old stars on April 20 from Las Vegas, according to multiple reports.
Haney has held multiple world championships in two weight classes and in his last fight he won the WBC super lightweight title as he defeated Regis Prograis via unanimous decision this past December.
Garcia comes from a loss to Gervonta “Tank” Davis at T-Mobile Arena, Las Vegas, on April 22 last year. Davis stopped the the undefeated fighter with a body punch in the seventh round.
“This fight for me means everything. This is what I meant when I spoke on PBD podcast ‘I’m coming back for everything in blood,’ I ask you guys to pray for Devin and his health. Pray his dad stops this fight. He will be needed to be carried out if this fight doesn’t get stopped at the appropriate time,” Garcia said about facing Haney next.
At the moment, there are not any more information about the potential Haney vs Garcia matchup.
