It all happened like this. The Ryan Garcia vs. Devin Haney fight from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, will be broadcast live on DAZN with less than 24 hours remaining. Shakur Stevenson shared his predictions for the fight on social media as career rivals join forces to put on an explosive show. And while Stevenson foresees a brutal knockout, the question is who will get laid.
It wasn’t that long ago that the Newark native was looking to fill in for Ryan Garcia as the boxing world became concerned about Garcia’s mental health. Bill Haney even branded Stevenson not good enough to fight his son. So will Stevenson support Garcia? Or is he and most of the boxing world expecting Haney to raise his hand?
Shakur Stevenson is convinced someone is about to throw up.

Looking ahead to X hours, Stephenson was predicting a body shot stoppage win for Haney. He wrote, “Body shot stop tomorrow, ni**a.” [is going to] Spit alcohol. ” If Stevenson’s prediction comes true, it will be Garcia’s second loss. The Victorville native performed this dance against Gervonta Davis in April, when a similar thing happened.
Tomorrow will be canceled due to body shots, I will throw up alcohol and leave.
