Davin Haney heard the challenge live, since he was in the Dallas Arena at the time that “Kingry” challenged him, but he only smiled and nodded; It was later when he answered.

“Our plan is to push for the next fight. I want to return to the ring as soon as possible and that Ryan García be my next fight “, expressed in an interview for Boxing Scene.

There shouldn’t be much pressure on the WBC to make this fight . I shouldn’t have to force them or force Ryan Garcia to fight me. I mean, he’s my agent, they should pressure me to fight him! We just have to see, ”he added.

And the fight is almost a fact, since since before Garcia beat Campbell it was known that the winner would be Devin’s mandatory title challenger ; and there is a lot of interest from Eddie Hearn and Oscar de la Hoya , promoters of both boxers, in carrying out the combat .
