‘He’s lying to the world’: Robert Garcia calls out Bill Haney for post about Jose Ramirez
Robert Garcia says Bill Haney is intentionally lying by saying Devin sent Jose Ramirez to the hospital.
Trainer Robert Garcia takes some time to clear up some comments made by Bill Haney, suggesting that his son Devin sent his fighter Jose Ramirez to the hospital after a historically awful fight.
Garcia makes it clear that Jose Ramirez was not in need of medical attention after their fight other than a routine check by doctors, which just happened to take place in an ambulance since the fight card took place in the streets of Times Square.
Dan Rafael and Tim Bradley etc. said the fight was boring. But after 12 rounds with Devin Haney, Jose Ramírez ended up in the back of an ambulance while Devin sat ringside, laughing and ready for the next challenge.

“I’ve always said it and before the fight and after the fight, I’ve always talked good to the Haneys,” Garcia began. “They’ve always given me nothing but respect but for Bill to post a picture of Jose in the ambulance after the fight and saying something like they hurt him, they had to send him to the hospital — he knows he’s lying to himself, he knows he’s lying to the world. And that’s what disappoints me because he’s a grown man, he’s not a kid.
“He’s a grown man and he knows exactly that there was no locker rooms in that arena, because it was a small corner, it was in the street. The locker room was in the hotel, two blocks away. So they told clearly in the rules meeting after the fight every fighter is going to go back to the street and we’re going to have ambulance and they’re all going to go in the ambulance and be checked by the doctor.
“Right there in New York, every fighter went to the back, to the ambulance, the doctor checked them, they released them, and we get in our car and the car drives us to the hotel. That’s exactly what happened and he knew that’s what’s going on so I don’t understand why he’s lying to himself. Bill, he’s a grown man, he’s not a kid, why are you trying to lie to the fans, to the crowd, instead of apologizing for the type of performance your son did — ran and ran and ran and ran.”
