Eddie Hearn doubts Ryan Garcia's explanations for pre-fight antics and missed weight

Ryan Garcia's shocking victory over Devin Haney on April 20 continues to raise questions. While Garcia dominated 'The Dream' en route to a decision win, the fight wasn't for Haney's WBC super lightweight title due to Garcia missing weight by over three pounds.

Garcia's pre-fight behavior, including erratic social media posts and discussions of cannabis use, fueled concerns he wouldn't even make it to the fight. However, after the victory, Garcia claimed his antics were a ploy to make people think he was losing focus. He also attributed the missed weight to advice from Floyd Mayweather.

Devin Haney's co-promoter, Eddie Hearn, isn't buying either of Garcia's explanations. In a recent interview, Hearn expressed skepticism about Mayweather's involvement and the supposed pre-fight act.

During an interview with Seconds Out, Hearn said:

"I'm not so sure he was [advised by Mayweather]. He said he put the whole thing on as an act, and I'm not sure about that either. But you've got to take your hat off to him, because wherever he's at mentally, he put a great performance in. But he did come in three-and-a-half pounds over. Not a lot of people have spoken about that, it is a thing."
