Oscar De La Hoya Critiques Bill Haney’s Management of Devin Haney’s Career — Prominent boxing promoter Oscar De La Hoya recently took to social media to express his disappointment with Bill Haney’s management of his son, Devin Haney’s boxing career. In his pointed remarks, De La Hoya emphasized that Bill’s decisions have not only been detrimental to Devin’s professional journey but have also led to a significant decline in his public image. He urges Devin to assert more authority over his own career decisions before he finds himself in an irreversible situation that could jeopardize his future in the sport.

De La Hoya’s Bold Statement on Haney Family Dynamics — “This statement is specifically aimed at what I consider to be the worst manager in the history of boxing, Bill Haney, and I believe this is a sentiment shared by many,” De La Hoya remarked. “I genuinely feel sympathy for Devin Haney. We seldom hear him express his own thoughts because his father dominates the conversation, which has negatively impacted the few supporters he has left. Although Devin suffered a setback last year, this should not have marked the end of his career.

Missed Opportunities: How Bill Haney’s Decisions Have Hurt Devin — “This situation could have been resolved easily if it weren’t for his father and manager, Bill, whose actions have turned what could be a simple recovery into a chaotic crisis akin to Chernobyl. I have never witnessed a more catastrophic mismanagement of a boxer’s career. After his defeat to Ryan Garcia last April, all Devin needed to do was admit his defeat by saying, ‘He beat me; I couldn’t block his left hook,’ and then focus on training again.

The Wrong Path: Legal Battles Instead of Comeback Strategies — “Instead of prioritizing a return to the ring in 2024 and preparing Devin with the necessary skills to counter a left hook, Bill chose to escalate the situation. He opted for litigation against Ryan for battery and emotional distress, initiated lawsuits against Golden Boy and the New York State Athletic Commission to erase Devin’s loss, and even arranged for Devin to fight a civilian at the Orange County State Fair. This decision not only wasted valuable time but also created numerous adversaries, solidifying their reputation as the biggest ‘crybaby’ duo in boxing history.

Desperation in London: Haneys Seek Opportunities — “Last week, Devin and Bill were seen in London pleading with Turki for a fight because they find themselves without viable options. Currently, the only significant opportunity for Devin in the boxing world is a rematch against Ryan Garcia. In a shocking twist, Bill, who has a controversial past, has once again pushed his son into the spotlight against the same fighter who previously handed him a humiliating loss, leading to a bizarre lawsuit for battery.

Conditions for the Rematch: A Legal Dilemma — “The highly anticipated rematch is slated for this October, but it comes with a stipulation: the Haneys must withdraw their frivolous lawsuits against both Ryan and Golden Boy. Unsurprisingly, they are willing to comply, as their legal standing is incredibly weak and lacks any substantial basis.

High Stakes for Devin: The Road Ahead — “However, agreeing to the rematch poses significant risks. If Devin suffers another defeat to Ryan Garcia, it could effectively end the Haney family’s presence in the boxing community. Before even contemplating that fight, Devin must first overcome a formidable opponent in Jose Ramirez this May. Caution is advised, as any misstep could lead to further legal actions against him.

A Personal Message to Bill Haney: Time to Step Back — “Bill, the pinnacle of your lackluster accomplishments in 2024 might just be your new role as the president of the neighborhood watch in Henderson, Nevada. If a strong gust of wind happens to knock one of my recycling bins too far, do me a favor and retrieve it for me. This favor will be the closest you’ll ever come to entering my home again.

A Call to Action for Devin Haney: Take Charge of Your Career — “To Devin Haney, as a fellow fighter, it is crucial that you seize control of your life and career and consider parting ways with your father as your manager. You have become a source of ridicule, and the boxing community clearly sees that your father is a significant part of the problem. I sincerely hope you can recognize this reality and take the necessary steps to save yourself from further damage before it’s too late, though time may already be running out.”
