Devin Haney Vs Ryan Garcia

With Devin and Ryan Garcia, the future remains bright at the lightweight class even as 31-year-old Vasyl Lomachenko still reigns in the division. No one is taking the title of the best lightweight boxer away from Vasyl Lomachenko.

Garcia who is 22 years old has opened his professional career with a spotless 18-0 record — 15 wins by knockout. Both look to keep their perfect record intact as Haney fights Zaur Abdullaev on Friday and Garcia fights Avery Sparrow on Saturday, both live on DAZN.

With Lomachenko not fighting again until 2020, possibly taking on the winner of the Richard Commey-Teofimo Lopez bout for a chance at unification, the WBC has said Haney’s fight against Abdullaev would have an interim lightweight title on the line. “His upside is incredible. It’s exponential. By the time he’s 21, he could be a champion,” Doulgass Fischer, editor in chief of The Ring magazine, told DAZN.
