Henry Garcia boldly predicts that his son Ryan Garcia will deliver a knockout punch to Devin Haney and also asserts that there will be no deprivation clause for the rematch with Gervonta Davis.
Henry Garcia, father and head coach of rising lightweight talent Ryan Garcia, has made a confident declaration. He has a strong belief that his son will defeat Devin Haney by a KO, no ifs or ands about it.
“Garcia has superior speed, definitive punch placement, and athleticism unlike any other. He’s on an ascension path that I don’t see Haney blocking”, said Henry.
Garcia and Haney, both 23 and undefeated, have been on a collision course for years. They are two of the most pronounced talents in their weight class, and boxing fans worldwide are eager to see them face off.
But there is more. Henry even weighed in on the potential rematch between Ryan Garcia and “Tank” Davis, revealing that there would be “no dehydration clause.” While Davis emerged victorious in their first explosive encounter, the Garcias are convinced that the outcome of their rematch will be different.
Garcia Sr. said, “Ryan had to deal with dehydration in their first match, which greatly affected his performance. But there won’t be any such issues this time. Davis knows what happened the first time. Now we are ready to take him on with Ryan at his best.”
In response to mischief regarding the ‘dehydration clause’, Garcia Sr. said, “We want a clean, upfront fight. No special conditions, no clauses. This rematch will be a test of true skill and mettle, with the superior fighter emerging victorious.”
Such definitive statements are not just confident talk from Henry Garcia. They seem to be a part of a larger strategic approach to empower his son mentally. Ryan’s speed and punch placement are indeed noteworthy, but his father ensures that his mental game is also strong.
Garcia Sr.’s strategy appears to be working. Ryan has consistently shown himself to be a formidable fighter since his professional debut in 2016. His knockout rate is an impressive 85 percent, with 18 of his 21 wins coming via knockout. Such statistics are arguably what makes the younger Garcia a lethal opponent for fighters such as Haney and Davis.
Haney, on the other hand, while also undefeated, with 25 wins, holds a knockout percentage of 52 percent, not quite matching up to Garcia’s.
The potential rematch with Davis, a three-division world champion, will, of course, be no easy task for young Garcia, but with his father’s unyielding faith in his abilities, it seems like Garcia is ready to take on the challenge with full force.
In conclusion, while predicting knockout victories and insisting on no special restrictions for rematches can be seen as a punchy method of negotiation by many, according to Henry Garcia, it’s all about ensuring a clean fight where the best man wins through sheer skill and tenacity.
Whether Ryan will KO Haney and turn the tide against Davis in a rematch devoid of any dehydration clause remains to be seen. Both matchups promise thrilling bouts and draw anticipation from fight fans worldwide. One thing is certain, though. Henry Garcia’s confidence in his son’s victories just raised the anticipation several notches higher.
