Ryan and Haney have continued trading trash talk long after their April 2024 bout. Although Garcia dropped Haney three times on his way to a majority decision victory, the result was later overturned to a no contest after Garcia tested positive for the banned substance ostarine. The rivalry has remained active on social media ever since, with both fighters regularly taking aim at one another.

Ryan’s latest remark also touched on Haney’s physical transformation. Haney has competed as high as welterweight and has spoken about no longer draining himself to make lightweight, but Ryan suggested the added muscle makes him look more like a junior middleweight than a 147-pound fighter.

Haney has not responded publicly to Ryan’s post. His attention remains on preparing for what many expect to be a high-profile clash with Shakur, while Garcia continues to monitor his former opponent from afar and seize every opportunity to keep their rivalry in the spotlight.
