“You’ll get it”: Haney promises Teofimo a showdown after Ramirez and Garcia

Devin Haney told Teofimo Lopez on X today, “You will get it” once winning his May fight against Jose Ramirez in Times Square, Manhattan, New York, and his October rematch with Ryan Garcia.

Haney started it by asking him why he wasn’t taking the fight with Subriel Matias, but he didn’t do it well. He trashed Teo’s name, calling him “TeHOE” when he asked him why he didn’t face the mighty former IBF 140-lb champion Subriel (21-2, 21 KOs), who is no piece of cake for anyone in the section is not. He would be a nightmare for Haney.

Teofimo gave these excuses for not fighting Matthias:

• Top Rank wanted the fight on the West Coast. Teo wanted it in New York City
• Put the fight on PPV
• $2.8 million offered: Teofimo replied that he is the “Last Star” on the highest ranking. He mentioned Keyshawn Davis as the apprentice for Top Rank, as their apprentice, who they are trying to turn into a star.

If Haney can beat Ramirez and Garcia in his next two fights, a clash against Teofimo would be a huge one if he goes undefeated this year. Lopez hasn’t said who he plans to fight next, but if he faces Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis, he’s likely to lose badly.

He already has a lot of trouble just trying to beat the 140 pound fighters. He had luck in his fights against Sandor Martin and Jamaine Ortiz. Many people thought Teofimo Lopez was fighting both.

Haney would be better off focusing on what’s in front of him right now: former WBC and WBO 140-lb champion Ramirez. This guy can beat Devin and spoil his October rematch with Garcia.

Ramirez: The end of the line?

That fight was going to happen anyway, as Turki Al-Sheikh wants to stage it in Riyadh. But it would take a lot of interest out of the game if Haney loses to Ramirez. I now predict that Haney will go 0-2 in his fights in 2025, and his career will be in oblivion.

Devin could still continue to mesh if he gets with promoter Eddie Hearn, who could put him on a Joshua-type four-fight rebuild to repair him according to factor specifications. Let’s face it: Haney was never that good to begin with, but he did well because he melted down to fight smaller, at 135, and initially fought the right guy when he moved up to 140, Regis Prograis.

You will get it.. once I beat Ramirez & Ryan you will be next.. but you knew you were already just chasing clout https://t.co/2QXFiZSg8h
