Ryan Garcia vs. Isaac Cruz and Devin Haney vs. Jose Ramirez will fight in a doubleheader on DAZN PPV in May in Times Square, New York. It will be one of Turki Al-Sheikh’s massive cards and will set the table for the October rematch between Ryan and Haney in Riyadh.
Doubleheader in May
Kingry (24-1, 20 KOs) has an easier fight against former WBA light welterweight champion ‘Pitbull’ Cruz (26-3-1, 18 KOs). While this is not an easy fight for Ryan, it is less risky than the one facing Haney (31-0, 15 KOs), and the former WBC and WBO 140-lb champion Jose Ramirez (29-2, 18 KOs).
Devin is facing a very good fighter in 2012 Olympian, Ramirez (32), and there is a good chance he will lose to this guy because he can punch and has excellent technical skills. However, Turki probably won’t care if Haney gets it because he has a different philosophy about sticking with fighters who are losing. Fans will still want to see Garcia-Haney rematch in October regardless of what happens with Haney against Ramirez.
“Sources revealed plans for a May function at TIMES SQUARE 🗽🍎 and outdoors, including Ryan Garcia-Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz, Devin Haney-Jose Ramirez, as part of the launch of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves of SNK and Ring Magazine #ESPNKnockOut,” said Salvador Rodriguez X.
