Devin Haney Net Worth 2024, Record, Wife, & More
\r\n
Who is Devin Haney?
\r\nDevin Haney, who was trained by his father Bill Haney in their own dedicated space, is one of the youngest boxing world champions in history., winning his first world title in 2019.\r\n\r\nHaney is a two-weight division champion. He became the undisputed lightweight champion by beating George Kambosos Jr in 2022. After successfully defending his titles for over a year, he decided to vacate them and make the jump to the junior lightweight division. He currently holds the WBC belt in that weight class.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAlso known as ‘The Dream’, the 25-year-old sits second in Ring Magazine’s rankings for active junior-lightweight pugilists. Furthermore, he is ranked #3 at junior lightweight by the Transnational Boxing Rankings.\r\n
Devin Haney’s early life
\r\nDevin Haney was born in San Francisco California to Rene and Bill Haney on November 17, 1998. When Haney was conceived, his parents were already separated by that time. Interestingly, before Devin’s birth, Bill Haney was a drug felon who spent 40 months behind bars for possession and conspiracy to distribute cocaine. The birth of his child forced him to get his act together. Subsequently, he started training Devin in boxing when he was just seven.\r\n\r\n“‘I’m going to take you to the [Round One Boxing] gym, and let’s see what you can do with some guys that really know how to fight’. He looked back at me, ‘OK’. He wasn’t intimidated at all. Devin was 8 years old.” Bill told TalkSport.\r\n\r\nBy fourteen, with his mother’s blessings, Devin moved to Los Vegas from Oakland, where his father was trying to make it in the music business, to continue training and build a career in boxing. The sacrifices and the hard work paid off as Devin, under his father’s guidance, turned pro at the age of 17 in 2015, with over 100 amateur wins under his belt. However being too young to get a license in the United States, Haney started his professional career fighting in pool halls and bars in front of a hostile Mexican crowd. In fact, out of his first fifteen professional fights, ten of them were held in Mexico.\r\n\r\n“Fighting in Mexico in a bar, you never thought you’d make it this far,” Haney had told Fight Freaks. “I knew I’d make it this far, but I knew I had a long road. I wasn’t the guy who came out of the amateurs, signed to a big promoter, and was fighting on big shows. I fought in Mexico for a long period of time. It’s been a long time coming for me,” he added.\r\n\r\nHaney can look back fondly at his formative years as his professional boxing record currently stands at 31-1-0, becoming a champion in two-weight classes.\r\n
Devin Haney’s wife and children
\r\nHaney has had a long dating history starting with his first model girlfriend Kris Summers. It was Haney’s first high-profile public relationship. However, not much information is available about their romance which eventually didn’t work out.\r\n\r\nThen in 2018, he started dating American model Blac Chyna. Despite a ten-year age gap, 19-year-old Haney slid into her DMs and later found out they shared the same lawyer. They hit it off and started seeing each other. The couple made their relationship public and flaunted their romance on social media. However, It didn’t work out in the end between them.\r\n\r\nThen he had a steamy relationship with Aileen Giselle. Their on-and-off saga was intertwined with other relationships, including a notable stint with Lira Galore. He also flew Galore to Cabo for a romantic getaway. They even went on a vacation to El Pedregal where they booked a mansion for themselves.\r\n\r\nThen in 2021, Haney entered into a relationship with famous Instagram model Jania Meshell, and they even got engaged. Jania was madly in love with Haney, to the point that she even got his name tattooed on her body. However, the romance didn’t last long as they broke off their engagement a couple of months after they started dating.\r\n\r\nSubsequently, he became involved with an old flame, India Love, a romance dating back to their teenage years. Even though their relationship was public, they eventually decided to call it quits after a short stint.\r\n\r\nCurrently, rumors are floating around about Devin Haney walking the aisle with a former Taz Angel Leena Sayed at a secretive ceremony in Mecca. However, there has been no official confirmation of their marriage. Haney has kept his current relationship with Sayed away from the public glare.\r\n
Devin Haney’s net worth
\r\nAs per Marca, Haney has an estimated net worth of $6 million as of 2023. Akin to Floyd Mayweather Jr, Haney has his own promotion company, which sees him secure a larger chunk of money on any card he fights at. The company is called Devin Haney Promotions.’\r\n\r\nOne of Haney’s most profitable fights was against Vasiliy Lomachenko where he earned a guaranteed fight purse of $4 million. His share in the PPV money would have bolstered his earnings from the fight to a significant amount. Another lucrative fight of Haney’s was against George Kambosos Jr. where he earned $2.8 million and 30% of the PPV shares.\r\n\r\nApart from fight earnings, Haney’s other sources of income include endorsements and other business ventures.\r\n
Devin Hany’s career timeline
\r\n’The Dream’ Haney has entered the squared circle 32 times in nine years.\r\n\r\nHis first title win came as a result of winning the interim belt against Zaur Abdulaev. Subsequently, after the lightweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko left the division, the WBC put its belt around Haney’s waist.\r\n\r\nDevin Haney ‘The Dream’ has a proclivity for the finish and has won via T/KO on 15 occasions. Furthermore, in his remaining fights, Haney has dominated and claimed unanimous decision wins.\r\n\r\nThis was the manner in which he retained his lightweight belt against Alfredo Santiago as a 20-year-old in November 2019. Haney set up an intriguing 2021 by beating Yuriorkis Gamboa. Jorge Linares, and Joseph Diaz.\r\n\r\nIn 2022, Haney became the undisputed lightweight champion by defeating George Kambosos Jr in Australia via Unanimous Decision. In October of the same year, he defended his titles against the same opponent, again getting an UD win in his favor.\r\n\r\nIn 2023, he fought Ukrainian boxer Vasyliy Lomachenko, securing a controversial unanimous decision victory. Subsequently, he vacated all his belts in the lightweight division and jumped up to conquer another weight class. In his debut match in the super-lightweight division against Regis Progrias, Haney delivered an impressive performance, securing yet another unanimous decision victory.\r\n\r\nHowever, in 2024, the only blot in his boxing record came against his long-time rival Ryan Garcia.\r\n\r\n NEW YORK, NEW YORK – APRIL 20: Ryan Garcia reacts after a knock down of Devin Haney during a fight at Barclays Center on April 20, 2024 in New York City. (Photo by Cris Esqueda/Golden Boy/Getty Images)\r\n\r\nEven though the fight with ‘King Ry’ was previously declared as a title fight, the WBC strap was out of contention once Garcia missed weight. Nonetheless, Haney faced an embarrassing loss with the Victorville native knocking him down three times. The bloodied and bruised Haney was able to take the fight to the final bell, but the outcome was an expected Majority decision loss.\r\n
Devin Haney’s contract
\r\n
Currently. Devin Haney is signed to Matchroom Boxing. He returned to Eddie Hearn’s promotion after his three-fight deal with Top Rank and DiBella Entertainment came to an end. After defeating Kambosos Jr twice for the undisputed lightweight titles in 2022, and subsequently defending them against Lomachenko in 2023, Haney decided to join forces with Hearn’s promotion for the Regis Prograis fight in the junior-lightweight division.\r\n
“I think when we first signed him, we kind of had a pact that he’d be our first undisputed world champion in America. Unfortunately, [Haney] had to take another deal to do that, but he always promised me he’d be back,” Hearn told ProBox TV.\r\n
Haney first signed with Matchroom Boxing in 2019 before his 21st birthday. His debut match under the Matchroom banner was against Antonio Moran, picking up the vacant WBC International Light and the WBO Inter-Continental Light titles. He then went on to win his first world title with Matchroom, securing the vacant WBC world lightweight interim strap against Zaur Abdullaev. However, before Haney could become undisputed, he decided to part ways with Matchroom.\r\n\r\n
Devin Haney Partnership and endorsements
\r\nOn account of his deal with Matchroom, Haney is sponsored by the reputed sports equipment company Everlast. His most recent collaboration is with the energy drink brand Prime. It was in part an attempt to spite his rival Ryan Garcia after he badmouthed the beverage for allegedly being toxic to one’s health. Haney is also signed with SNAC Nutrition, a sports supplement brand. He is often seen displaying this brand on his workout gear and other apparel.\r\n\r\nMoreover, he is also associated with DAZN, and the young fighter can be routinely seen promoting the app.\r\n\r\nApart from his sponsorship deals, he reportedly has an impressive portfolio of investments in startups and real estate. One of his noteworthy investments includes his own events promotion company Devin Haney Promotions. The company was granted by the California State Athletic Department (CSAC) in 2018.\r\n
Devin Haney’s career stats and record
\r\nIn his professional career, Haney is 31-1-0. He has fifteen KOs, bringing his KO rate to 48.39%. The only loss in his boxing record came against his longtime rival Ryan Garcia.\r\n

Ryan Garcia Net Worth 2024, Record, Wife, & More
\r\n
Who is Ryan Garcia?
\r\nRyan Garcia, the twenty-five-year-old young boxer from California, is gradually climbing up the ranks in the world of boxing. The Victorville native has used his skills inside the ring, and his strong social media presence to become one of the biggest draws in the sport.\r\n\r\n LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, UNITED STATES NOVEMBER 2, 2019: American boxer Ryan Garcia wins his WBC Silver and NABO lightweight title bout against Philippine rival Romero Duno at MGM Grand Garden Arena. Valery Sharifulin/TASS PUBLICATIONxINxGERxAUTxONLY TS0C18B1\r\n\r\nThe five feet and ten inches tall boxer, after an outstanding amateur outing, started his professional journey in 2016 and received his first belt, WBC – NABF (Vacant) Junior Super Featherweight championship, a year later. Four years later, he won the WBC (Vacant) Interim Lightweight championship.\r\n\r\nSo far, he has participated in twenty-five fights, with just one loss in his boxing record.\r\n
Ryan Garcia’s early life
\r\nRyan Garcia was born to Henry Garcia and Lisa Diaz on August 8, 1998, in Victorville, California. He comes from a large family, which includes three sisters – Kayla Garcia, Demi Elise, and Sasaha Marie, and a brother Sean, who is also into boxing.\r\n\r\nSean was born on October 24, 2000. Like his brother, he was initially introduced to boxing by their father. He debuted professionally on October 28, 2017, against Luis Eduardo Ochoa. As of now, his record stands at seven wins and one draw. According to SportLulu, he and his wife, Surrissa, are parents to Layla and Ellie.\r\n\r\nOf Mexican ancestry, in the ring, Ryan is often seen carrying the flags of Mexico and the U.S. Unlike many other examples, Garcia stays happily with his family. He started learning the nuances of boxing from his father, a former boxer. On the other hand, his mother has been reported to handle some of his ventures.\r\n\r\nThough only a little information is available regarding his education, based on his mother’s previous comments and an LA Times article, it’s safe to presume he had primary schooling at Adelanto High School. But increasing involvement with amateur circuits forced a switch over to home-schooling.\r\n
Ryan Garcia’s wife and children
\r\nRyan Garcia was married to Andrea Celina, known more popularly as Drea Celina. They announced their divorce in January, after the birth of their first baby boy Henry Leo Garcia.\r\n\r\nThe 1996-born model, fitness trainer, and social media influencer of Mexican and Italian descent began dating the famous boxer in 2019. Eventually, they decided to tie the knot in 2021.\r\n\r\nIn December 2020, they conceived a daughter named Bela. After that, however, their relationship ran into rough weather when pics of Garcia reportedly kissing Cuban-Spanish singer and TikToker Malu Trevejo leaked.\r\n\r\nBefore he met Drea Celina, KingRy was seeing Catherine Gamez, a Columbian social media celebrity. Their relationship began in 2017. Then, on March 19, 2019, their daughter Rylie was born. Soon after, they separated.\r\n
Ryan Garcia’s net worth
\r\nAccording to CelebrityNetWorth, Ryan Garcia’s net worth stands at approximately in the vicinity of $20 million.\r\n\r\nGiven that he turned a pro-boxer at age seventeen and the number of big fights he has participated in remain far and few, it could be fair to assume that earnings through sponsorships, endorsements, and deals would have formed a significant share of his fortune.\r\n\r\nWhen he started his professional journey, his paycheck used to be in the periphery of $55,000. Three years later, when he fought Romero Duno at MGM Grand Arena, he received $250,000. After that, however, it was revised, and he ended with $500,000.\r\n\r\nIn 2022, for the bout against Emmanuel Tagoe, Ryan Garcia reportedly made $3 million, besides 70% of the PPV revenue. Later, for the Javier Fortuna fight, he netted $2 million.\r\n\r\nLast year, Garcia was involved in one of the biggest fights of his career against Gervonta Davis. Even though Garcia lost, he was part of one of the highest-grossing PPV events of all time. According to the Victorville native, the fight made over $100 million in revenue. Out of which, Garcia’s fight purse was a whopping $30 million, according to his promoter Oscar De La Hoya.\r\n\r\nThe 25-year-old boxer then followed up the Davis fight with a matchup against fellow American boxer Oscar Duarte Jurado. The fight, fairly diminished in profile compared to his last bout, fetched Garcia around $ 5 Million, according to various reports.\r\n\r\nMoreover, as most know, fight purses are not the only source of Garcia’s overall income.\r\n\r\nGiven his good looks and overall youthful persona, Ryan Garcia is undoubtedly one of the most recognized athletes in the world today. His popularity could be gauged by the 10 million followers that he has on Instagram. Therefore, some notable brands inadvertently lined up to exploit his reach and boost his net worth.\r\n
Ryan Garcia’s career timeline
\r\nRyan Garcia reportedly started training at age seven. In 2014, he won a silver medal at the Reno Junior National Championships (Under 17). Incidentally, one of the boxers to whom he lost a bout was future champion, Devin Haney.\r\n\r\nThe following year the duo met again at Youth National Championships (Under 19) in Reno, and the outcome was to repeat itself. But in 2016, Ryan Garcia had his moment when he won the Gold at the 2016 Youth National Championships (Under 19). His amateur record stood at two hundred and fifteen wins against fifteen losses.\r\n\r\nBy June 2016, he launched his professional career with a technical knockout win over Edgar Meza in Tijuana. He won his first title, the vacant WBC – NABF Junior Super Featherweight title, a year later on September 15, 2017.\r\n\r\nBy May 4, 2018, a unanimous victory of Jayson Velez enabled him to top up the titles to WBC – NABF and WBO – NABO Super Featherweight. Then, on November 2, 2019, a knockout victory over Romero Duno fetched him the WBO – NABO and the vacant WBC Silver Lightweight titles, which he ably defended against Francisco Fonseca.on February 14, 2020.\r\n\r\nHis big moment came on January 2, 2021, when he defeated 2012 Olympic gold medalist Luke Campbell at American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, and took home his first title, WBC Interim Lightweight.\r\n\r\nIn 2022, Ryan Garcia had two bouts, the first on April 9 in San Antonio against Emmanuel Tagoe and the second on July 16 in Los Angeles against former champion Javier Fortuna. Not only did he win resoundingly in both, but the matches provided significant fight purses to him.\r\n\r\nLast year too, Garcia fought twice. On April 22, 2023, ‘KingRy’ fought Gervonta Davis at T-Mobile Arena in Nevada.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIt was the biggest PPV event of his entire career, but unfortunately, he picked up his first loss in his professional boxing record. Garcia was outperformed by Davis, the latter knocking Garcia down in the second round by a counter left hook, and then subsequently ending the fight with a brutal body shot that made the Victorville native take a knee, unable to respond to the referee’s ten-count. However, KingRy managed to make a successful comeback in December against his American counterpart Oscar Duarte, knocking him out in the eighth round.\r\n
Ryan Garcia’s contract
\r\nIt would be interesting to note that in September 2019, Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions and Ryan Garcia reportedly settled for a $700 million deal. Garcia’s agreement with the promotions got a five-year extension the same month.\r\n\r\nHowever, Garcia’s relationship with Golden Boy Promotions’ head honcho Oscar De La Hoya has soured since 2023 April. \r\n\r\nIt all started after the 6-division world champion was a no-show at the post-match conference of the Davis fight. KingRy was upset that his promoter wasn’t there for moral support, and over the entire year questioned his loyalty. Garcia’s legal team even sent a demand letter alleging a violation of the contractual agreement between him and the promotion, thereby demanding the contract be terminated. In response, Oscar De La Hoya’s promotion filed a lawsuit against Garcia to enforce its contract with the boxer. This prompted Garcia to file a motion aiming to dismiss Golden Boy Promotions’ lawsuit against him. \”\r\n\r\nRather than stand by their boxer, De La Hoya and his co-owners of Golden Boy took to social media to disparage him,\” the motion stated. \”In a sport where the exploitation of boxers is legend, De La Hoya and Golden Boy have written a new chapter.\” \r\n\r\nThe motion also alleged that Golden Boy failed to fulfill its payment obligations to Garcia, and didn’t honor broadcast commitments. As things stand currently, Ryan Garcia is still fighting under the Golden Boy Promotions banner, but the bad blood between him and De La Hoya persists. \r\n
Ryan Garcia’s partnership and endorsements
\r\nIt isn’t a surprise that some big companies have lined up to exploit Garcia’s reach as a rising star in boxing with immense talent and charisma. \r\n\r\nGym Shark, one of the most well-known fitness accessories and apparel companies, offered the boxer one of the biggest endorsement deals of his career. However, the exact figure of the deal is not known. \r\n\r\nIn 2018, Garcia signed an endorsement deal with Gatorade and has even appeared in a few different commercials for the company. Apart from that, he is also signed with the Mexican Tequila brand 1800 Tequila and luxury fashion brand Dior.\r\n\r\nHis most recent brand association is with YoungLA, a lifestyle clothing brand based in the US. He signed a deal with the company in 2023. \r\n\r\nAdditionally, he is known to have undertaken modeling assignments for a few other big names. \r\n
Ryan Garcia’s career stat
\r\nRyan Garcia’s professional record stands at 24 wins against one loss. Twenty of his victories came through knockouts, securing a knockout ratio of 83.33%\r\n
Ryan Garcia’s house
\r\n Ryan Garcia invested roughly $3 million in a house in La Jolla, California. Located in Porter Ranch, it is situated 30 miles north of downtown Los Angeles. The property is spread around 3,680 square feet, housing five bedrooms and six bathrooms. The two-story complex also has a basketball court, deck/patio, and a large pool, among other amenities.\r\n
Ryan Garcia’s titles
\r\nRyan Garcia hasn’t won a major world title yet (hasn’t won any titles under the four major sanctioning bodies in professional boxing).\r\n
Ryan Garcia’s car collection
\r\nWhat exactly does a twenty-five-year-old millionaire boxer do with his $20 million fortune? Like many sports personalities, Ryan Garcia is no exception. He loves cars.\r\n\r\nInformation on the precise number of cars in his collection remains to be determined. However, Ryan Garcia does shower his love on a few unique pieces.\r\n\r\nAudi RS7:\r\n\r\nOne of Ryan Garcia’s earliest purchases. The model with a V8 engine has 600 horsepower. He reportedly paid $150,000 to get it home.\r\n\r\nLamborghini Urus:\r\n\r\nIt has a V8 engine and boasts 650 horsepower. It can reach a top speed of 190 mph and covers zero to sixty-two miles per hour in 3.6 seconds. He reportedly shelled $230,000 to buy the expensive ride.\r\n\r\nFerrari 488 Spider:\r\n\r\nThough it lightened up his wallet by $500,000, Garcia certainly believes the car with a V8 engine, 670 horsepower, 202 mph top speed, and one that shoots from zero to sixty-two miles per hour in three seconds to be worth every penny.\r\n\r\nPorsche 718 Boxster:\r\n\r\nThe Flash is often seen with this beauty. With a top speed of 180 mph, it zooms from zero to sixty miles per hour in 4.4 seconds. He reportedly bought it for $200,000.\r\n\r\nMercedes-Benz G-Class:\r\n\r\nGarcia’s latest purchase has a 4.0 L V8 engine that delivers 422 horsepower. With a top speed of 131 mph, it can go from zero to sixty-two miles per hour in 5.9 seconds. Reportedly, he shelled out $300,000 to make it his.\r\n

This fan, for instance, expressed a strong belief in Oscar De La Hoya’s verdict. Devin Haney had been carving out a career taking on fighters out of their prime. Instead of improving, the move rather depletes a fighter’s skills. So inevitably, as it was bound to happen, Haney met an opponent who dropped him to the canvas. Now he’s crying over the spilled milk. The fan said, “Devin Haney was always going to get knocked out one day. The biggest risk he took was Ryan Garcia because before that he fought smaller guys or old guys. He never built himself to be durable enough to take punishment. This has exposed the brand, and they can’t handle this L.” Oscar De La Hoya [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago1015602759h-2.jpg]Boxing: Canelo vs Bivol, May 7, 2022 Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Former boxing champion Oscar De La Hoya attends a light heavyweight championship bout at T-Mobile Arena between Dimitry Bivol not pictured and Canelo Alvarez not pictured. Mandatory Credit: Joe Camporeale-USA TODAY Sports, 07.05.2022 20:29:45, 18228419, NPStrans, T-Mobile Arena, Boxing, TopPic, Canelo Alvarez, Oscar De La Hoya PUBLICATIONxINxGERxSUIxAUTxONLY Copyright: xJoexCamporealex 18228419 This user too felt that Oscar De La Hoya had made a valid point. They expressed a curiosity to see the kind of response De La Hoy’s comment would elicit from Haney. “Oscar talking truth towards the end. I have to see if that broke Haney. That can mess up a person mental,” the user said. The following fan too defended Oscar De La Hoya. Out of sheer bias, detractors might disagree with him. However, the truthfulness of ‘The Golden Boy’s comments remains unchanged. They said, “The haters will criticize Oscar for these comments, but it’s the truth.” One of the users, responding to a comment, added that Devin Haney might perhaps continue to chase easier opponents to maintain a successful record. This is what the user said: “He’s just going to fight the weaker champions.” Then this fan went a step ahead. Not only did they call out Haney’s fans, they also roped in Shakur Stevenson [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/shakur-stevenson/]. But it appears they held Bill Haney responsible for lining up matchups against older, out-of-form fights. It could be the reason why Stevenson also might be avoiding fights against competent opponents. “Devin fans, weather you like it or not, Bill Haney overdid the matchups with smaller guys and old guys and never made Devin stronger or durable enough to take punishment. That’s why Shakur is running from power because all he fought was weak guys at Top Rank at 130 ” Clearly, the issue has sharply divided the fans into distinct camps. Going by the Garcia, De La Hoya camp, it seems, first and foremost, Devin Haney might have to step up and prove them wrong in the ring. Nevertheless, there are a few, like Eddie Hearn, who has worked with Devin Haney, who feel the legal action might have a significant impact on the sport [https://www.essentiallysports.com/boxing-news-eddie-hearn-brands-devin-haneys-lawsuit-a-pivotal-moment-for-boxing-as-ryan-garcia-set-to-potentially-lose-tens-of-millions-of-dollars/]. In the coming weeks, fans will be eagerly watching out to see how things unfold. What are your thoughts? Do you agree or disagree with Oscar De La Hoya? “,”editorJson”:{“display_name”:”Gokul Pillai”,”user_avatar”:”“,”user_description”:”Gokul Gopalakrishna Pillai is a Boxing Editor at EssentiallySports.
