Ryan Garcia Files Counterclaim Against Devin Haney’s Father

American boxer Ryan Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs) has announced that he is preparing to file a counterclaim against Bill Haney, the father of WBC champion on recess Devin Haney (31-0, 15 KOs).

The legal move stems from an interview Bill Haney gave prior to Ryan’s fight with Devin, where Haney Sr. said, “Devin won’t just box you—he’s coming to kill you.”

“I have no other choice but to sue him,” Garcia wrote.

It’s worth noting that previously, Devin Haney had filed a lawsuit against Ryan Garcia’s former opponent over a series of accusations.
