The father of Devin Haney is currently on a mission to secure an opponent for his son! One of the names that had people excited about Haney’s next fight is Ryan Garcia. However, papa Bill’s interaction with Benn during his post-fight press conference suggests that the Garcia fight might not be happening, prompting Stevenson to brand Bill a “Helluva Business Man” on X today!
