After the news broke, Haney took issue with most of the forfeited purse going to Garcia's management, Golden Boy Promotions. As per the latest update, he plans to take further legal action.

He told TitleSportsNet:

"My lawyers will do what they've gotta do to prove that in court against Ryan. We will take legal action because it has affected me - not only financially, but mentally and everything." [H/t Michael Benson]

Tyson Fury gets "delusional" about the Oleksandr Usyk fight

During a recent appearance on FUROCITY by Tyson Fury, the British boxer opened up on his loss to Oleksandr Usyk earlier this year. After initially accusing the judges of bias due to geopolitical reasons (Usyk is Ukrainian), Fury has now blamed "fun" for his loss:

"My problem in that fight - probably had too much fun. It was probably too easy. It was like I was in there with a local amateur boxer and I was just enjoying it too much, messing around. [I] paid the ultimate price in round nine where I got a 10-8 round and got clipped. That’s what happens when you have too much fun."
