Ryan Reveals Who Gave Him the Supplements

Bill Haney, trainer and father of "champion in recess" WBC super lightweight (up to 63.5 kg) Devin Haney (31-0, 15 KOs), had a conversation with his son's opponent Ryan Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs), moderated by Zab Judah and the host of Millcity Podcast.

Although Devin himself did not participate, his father was able to express everything accumulated since April, when Ryan failed to make weight before the fight and did not contest the WBC title held by Haney. Garcia won but failed a pre-fight drug test, testing positive for the banned substance Ostarine. The B sample also came back positive. Devin's team demanded Garcia's disqualification and the annulment of the fight result. Ultimately, Garcia received a one-year ban, a $1.1 million fine, and his bout with Haney was declared a no-contest.

During the conversation, Ryan revealed that the supplement was given to him by someone named "Scooter."

Ryan Garcia: "This is what the lawyers have. We sent samples to the lab, they tested them, and found Ostarine, so my supplement was contaminated, which I have no doubt about. The name of the supplements? I don't know what they're called. I've already said that. Scooter is the one who gave me the supplements. I will always stand by the truth. Scooter gave me the supplements. An accusation against Victor Conte? I am very skeptical. I am still very skeptical to this day. A man who was banned from another sport is helping you. Devin Haney, your son, can lose so much weight but then gain so much weight and still fight for 12 rounds. Valdez was caught – he wasn't disqualified, Shane Mosley was caught – he wasn't disqualified, Canelo was caught – disqualified for six months. When I was caught, I was disqualified for a year. Just different rules. I had only a billionth of a gram of the banned substance. Bill, do you know what a billionth of a gram is? Imagine a tiny grain of salt thrown into an Olympic pool. That's the amount of banned substance found in my body."

Bill Haney: "Listen, if you have a pinch of heroin in your body, is it heroin?"
