Everything you need to know about the junior welterweight title showdown on Saturday night in Brooklyn

The main event on Saturday night in Brooklyn was expected to see Ryan Garcia challenge for a world title for the first time in his career against WBC junior welterweight titleholder Devin Haney. That all changed when the fighters hit the scales on Friday.

Garcia missed the 140-pound limit by more than three pounds and did not attempt to drain himself anymore to make the limit. Instead, Garcia ranted on social media that he had no intention of even bothering to try and win the title while planning to knock out Haney with the extra advantage he'll carry from not cutting as much weight.

Haney, to his credit, has tried to keep calm all week in the face of Garcia's antics. His lone slip up came on Tuesday when the fighters faced off on top of the Empire State Building. Garcia said something that riled Haney up, leading to a slap and shove from the champion. The two then shared one of the most intense faceoffs after the weigh-ins on Friday. All that's left to do is settle it in the ring on Saturday. 

Haney has been on a roll in the last few years. He became undisputed lightweight king with a pair of victories over George Kambosos in Australia in 2022 before vacating the titles and moving up to 140 pounds. He earned the vacant strap with a thrashing of Regis Prograis last December.

Garcia, meanwhile, is coming off a knockout over Oscar Duarte in December, which was a bounce back from the first loss of his career in his highest-profile fight to date. Garcia was stopped via body shot against Gervonta "Tank" Davis where many questioned if he could have continued.

The only other fight of note on the undercard sees an interim title at stake in the flyweight division when John Ramirez battles David Jimenez. Ramirez is unbeaten at 13-0 with nine knockouts so far in his young career. The 27-year-old completed a perfect 2023 with a fourth-round knockout of Ronal Batista in October to earn his title shot. Jimenez, 32, is 15-1 with 11 KOs on his resume. Jimenez is on a three-fight win streak since his lone defat in January 2023 to Artem Dalakian.
