Ryan Garcia has agreed to pay WBC light welterweight champion Devin Haney $500,000 per pound if he's over the 140-lb limit at Friday's weigh-in ahead of their fight on Saturday night.
The pair are set to face each other at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, on Saturday night after a tumultuous build-up that saw fans call for Garcia to be pulled from the fight.
Garcia - who heads into the bout with a 24-1 record after securing 20 knockouts and losing to Gervonta Davis in April 2023 - has been hitting the headlines for his alarming activity on social media and in interviews.
Haney has even shared his concerns over Garcia's mental state, stating: 'Something is wrong with this motherf**ker' during Thursday's press conference at the Barclays Center.
Bill Haney - Devin's father, trainer and manager - questioned whether Garcia would even make weight during the official weigh-in on Friday morning before the ceremonial weigh-in on Friday afternoon.
