Who deserves respect in the fiery world of boxing? Bill Haney has some thoughts on the matter. As Devin Haney’s coach and father, Beal is no stranger to being in the spotlight. Remember when Shakur Stevenson was fired for not signing a boxing contract? It’s a movement that still exists in the boxing community today. Now, with Devin Haney vs. Ryan Garcia is scheduled for April 20 at the Barclays Center, which has plenty of space.
Despite past problems and a major threat at the Empire State Building, Bill praises Garcia for moving forward. So, why did Garcia get the Bills over Stevenson? Signed, sealed, and delivered:
Haney thanked Ryan Garcia for his promotion
In an interview with Fighthype.com, Bill Haney talks about the importance of respect in professional boxing, especially for Ryan Garcia and Shakur Stevenson. – Listen, but with different levels of respect and reverence. You have to respect the fighter who signed the fight to make it happen, he signed with Ryan Garcia. He was at the Empire State Building, right? He didn’t come out, Devin applauded him, but I respect him because he came out, and he did it, but he was bad,” explained Bill. This review shows a recent episode of the heated debate between Devin and Ryan at the Empire State Building, showing the tension and drama of this upcoming fight. – So for that reason, I don’t care what Devin does to him in the ring, you know what I mean. “But I have absolutely no respect for a guy (Shakur Stevenson) who talks bad, won’t sign a contract, can’t sign a contract and goes back to social media,” Beal said.
His very different tone of voice during his conversation with Garcia and Stevenson shows that he sees a real gap in earning respect in actions, not just words. In that interview, he called Shakur the “king” of the big deal.
Bill Haney praises Shakur Stevenson’s digital strategy
Bill Haney won’t mince words about Shakur Stevenson’s approach to boxing promotion. In a chat with Fight Hype, Beal expressed doubts about Stevenson’s credibility. – just like he doesn’t like to fight on social media. He called for a ban on social media. He does a lot on social media — you know what I mean,” Beal said. Although Haney had offered Stevenson a 25 percent share of the money in earlier negotiations (an offer Stevenson rejected), Bill remained neutral. – I told you before, there are important jobs and there are promotions. He’s the king of shooters because everything he does is on social media,” he added, accentuating his speech with deep sadness.
So what do you think? Can social media business replace real gaming?
