Did They Plan for His Loss? Ryan Garcia’s Conspiracy Theory on Testing Positive for PEDs After Beating Devin Haney

So, picture this. It’s Friday, and everyone’s all gathered around this table ’cause there’s this big boxing shindig – the kind of thing they call the Fatal Fury roundtable, I think? Anyway, Ryan Garcia, you know, the guy with hands faster than a New York minute, and Devin Haney, who’s got moves like nobody’s business, are going at it – verbally, I mean. It’s all about this PED stuff from last April when they threw down in Brooklyn.

Ryan’s got this whole conspiracy theory, and honestly, it sounds like something out of one of those crazy action flicks with too many plot twists. He’s convinced it was all rigged, a setup, “in case they lost.” Like, imagine having that level of foresight, right? And he’s saying Haney’s bro was in on it, like an inside scoop or something. So, naturally, they start this back-and-forth dance of words—kind of like watching a tennis match but less polite.

Ryan: “Hey, I felt I won, full stop. But I got this feeling, man, like it was all arranged, ya know? Like insurance or something if things went south for them,” he tells Ring Magazine. And he’s all about how Haney’s brother having the heads up about him testing positive rattled his cage a bit.

Haney: “But how could you rig that up?” Typical Haney, right? Shooting straight.

Ryan’s got this defiant tone, questioning back—“How’d you even know?” And Haney’s like, “There’s no setup. You’re dreaming.” It’s got this awkward high school drama vibe—everyone watching, some folks leaning in for the juicy bits.

Without anything concrete in his back pocket, Garcia’s angle seems shaky. It’s one of those ideas that’s like lining up dominoes that topple over too soon. Still, you gotta love a bit of drama.

Then there’s this other piece where Todd Grisham, some media guy, throws in this curious bit about the fight. They’re talking about Garcia’s laser-focused left hook, his ace in the hole. Grisham asks if he’s leaning too hard on it, like it’s his security blanket or something. Ryan shoots back, saying that hook’s been with him since his amateur days – like an old friend who never leaves his side. He goes on about how he toyed with Haney, giving him all these “different looks” to throw him off balance, like some kind of fight chess game.

And then there’s this part about a rematch, and Ryan’s all set to prove he’s got Haney’s number anytime, anywhere. That classic “wait till next time” kind of vibe.

Anyway, it’s boxing. There’s drama, a hint of mystery, and a lot of chatter. But in the end, isn’t that what makes it all so captivating? You get the punches, the conspiracies, and the game plays. Keeps everyone on their toes, even those of us just trying to keep up with the wild ride.
