Bill Haney and Floyd Mayweather never had the right equation to begin with. In the lead up to the Garcia fight, Mayweather leaked the sparring footage between Devin Haney and Gervonta Davis, sparking a fierce response for Haney Sr. However, as ‘King Ry’ Garcia’s fate is handed over to the New York Athletic Commission, Bill Haney is targeting Mayweather.

Is Floyd Mayweather a middle man?

Turning to Instagram today, Bill Haney said, On April the 20th, you were skinning and grinning from ear to ear. You was happy to tell the world about the 3.2 pounds that you helped Ryan Garcia come in overweight with.” However, Haney Sr. alleges that when Garcia’s PED debacle has come to light, Mayweather is hiding in Dubai.

It’s worth noting that Gervonta Davis had accused Mayweather of being stuck in Dubai for unpaid dues in the country. After this, Floyd had canceled his exhibition rematch with Victor Ortiz, further fueling the allegations. Nevertheless, Bill Haney alleges, “we know you was the middle man to Ryan Garcia’s victory, but what we wanna know is are you the middleman to the steroids?”

Since the B-Sample result has implicated Garcia of using steroids, Garcia has presented a hair sample test, which he claims clears his name from steroid usage. However, he failed to provide any substantial proof of the said test. However, all of this didn’t matter to the fans, who swiftly started turning on Bill Haney. 

Bill Haney’s taunt has zero effect on the fans

As the video started circulating on Instagram, most fans weren’t happy about Bill Haney attacking Floyd Mayweather for Garcia’s PED test results. One user refused to sympathize with Devin, suggesting Devin lost the fight regardless of the adverse findings. The user wrote, “Give it up bruh your son got cooked regardless.” While this user may not see the unfair advantage, Garcia’s win may soon get overturned.

Another user sarcastically pointed out the PEDs didn’t help Garcia land his left hook accurately, while asserting Devin was simply outclassed during the fight. “But the PED in Ryan’s system didn’t improve his accuracy when he landed the multiple left hooks on Devin. Your son was out classed plain and simple,” the user wrote. 

Meanwhile, American Football running back LeSean McCoy jumped in the comment section to say, “how u don’t fk wit bill.” He was seemingly enjoying the clip from Bill way too much. 

The next user claimed no one really cares about what Haney Sr. has to say because fighters in boxing have been taking such substances for ever. The user wrote, “Bro nobody care, ya son got beat that’s da end. We dgaf wat Ryan took, n*gas been cheatin in boxing for years anyway.” While the allegation from the user would be hard to prove, several fighters over the years have been caught with PEDs in their system. 

One user thought Bill Haney was losing his mind because he couldn’t handle his son’s loss. The user wrote, “Bill haney is having a mental breakdown. He can’t get over the L.” In fact, Haney’s corner is trying their best to get the loss erased from Haney’s record, suggesting Garcia should be given the loss via disqualification. 

There has been no response from Mayweather’s side yet regarding the allegations made by Bill Haney. However, per the responses from the public, Garcia’s PED results don’t seem to have swayed the public’s sympathy towards Devin Haney. What do you think about the reactions?
