Jackson sees Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) as a bit of a “b****” because he turned around and sued Kingry after getting thrashed last April in a one-sided defeat at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Jackson views it as a sign of weakness in Devin’s decision to sue instead of taking his “loss like a man.” He points out that everybody has got to lose sometime, but they’re supposed to accept their defeats rather than using the approach that Haney took to cleanse his record, erasing the loss with the help of the court system.
Rampage’s Rant
“F**** Devin Haney. He acts like a b****,” said Quinton ‘Rampage’ Jackson to Fight Hub TV. “I can’t stand people who act like that. Ryan will beat his a** again, and Devin Haney will learn not to be a b****. We all lose. Everybody can’t be undefeated. You win and lose. You take the s*** like a man. Going and suing. Take your loss like a man. Quit being a b***.
“I love Ryan Garcia. Never bet against that kid. I don’t know who the other guy is, though,” said Jackson when asked about his prediction on the Ryan vs. Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero fight on May 2nd.
The result is that fans still view Haney as having lost the fight to Garcia, and he didn’t gain anything. Ryan said this week that Devin had to drop the lawsuit to get the rematch with him in October, and even that’s not guaranteed.
Tournament Time
Devin still needs to win his May 2nd fight against Jose Ramirez on the Fatal Fury card at Times Square in New York City if he loses that, there will be no rematch with Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs). All that waste. It’s a mini-tournament-type situation for that card.
Both guys must be victorious on the May 2nd card to meet in a rematch. Ryan is fighting the slugger Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero in the main event, and it’s not a sure thing that he wins. Rolly is a nightmare for anyone to fight, coming off a one-year layoff.
It would be Haney’s second defeat, putting his career in sorry shape. Perhaps Eddie Hearn could come through and deliver a trilogy match against George Kambosos Jr. or Jake Wyllie. Those are winnable fights for Devin, but obviously, a rematch with Ryan would be out the door.
