The boxing world is still buzzing after Ryan Garcia had a dominant performance against Devin Haney on Saturday night. Garcia, the underdog, shocked everyone by flooring Haney three times and winning a clear decision victory. But amidst the celebrations, Ryan Garcia 's old rival, Gervonta Davis, sent a surprising message in his direction.

Garcia Stuns Haney in Upset Victory

From the opening bell, Garcia took control of the fight. A powerful left hook in the first round sent a jolt through Haney, and Garcia continued to press his advantage throughout. Despite Haney's attempts to regain control, Garcia landed another stunning blow in the sixth round, followed by the first knockdown of Haney's career in the seventh. 

Garcia sealed the deal with two more knockdowns in the later rounds, securing a victory that few expected. However, due to missing weight before the fight, Garcia wasn't eligible to claim Haney's championship belt.

Davis Offers Backhanded Advice

Despite his well-documented feud with Haney, Davis expressed satisfaction with Haney's loss. However, he couldn't resist taking a shot at Garcia as well. In a now-deleted tweet, Davis suggested that Garcia should "retire now", claiming that he would "get hurt bad" if he continued fighting.

Davis's comments likely stem from discussions during Garcia's post-fight press conference, where Garcia and his promoter, Oscar De La Hoya, floated the possibility of a rematch with Davis. Garcia expressed doubts about Davis even facing him, suggesting he would move up in weight rather than risk a fight with Davis.

What's Next?

With both fighters on winning streaks, the potential for a Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia rematch remains a tantalizing prospect for boxing fans. However, Garcia's struggles with making weight and his desire to move up in weight class could complicate the negotiations. Regardless, Davis's deleted tweet has reignited the feud, and all eyes will be on both fighters to see what their next moves will be.
