Your having a card in NY with 2 biggest names on the card are from the West Coast.. I hope this doesn’t mean that rematch is taking place in NY again when it would do better in LA or Vegas…

I don't understand that logic.

If you can say Haney was winning early and Ryan came on later.. ..I'm gonna attribute that having more energy from not making weight. And having more endurance due to what was in his system.

I strongly feel the he's not in the mindset or conditioning to make that 2nd half performance if he comes in all natural and on weight.

And rewarding him with a rematch is dumb to me. If I'm the pro here, I'm going to stand on business.. Ryan violated our contract on two key areas..I wouldn't be able to trust him to do fair business in the future.

He can't use me to rebuild his credibility,

But that's me.

I think the bold is an unfounded assumption. We see fighters get progressively better through fights all the time even when they make weight. There are a dozen reasons for why a fighter can start out slow.

At the end of the day, I watched the fight and it didn't look like a conditioning thing. It looked more like he put Haney down, and Haney wasn't really able to recover. That's something we see a lot in boxing too.

Again, from a business standpoint, I understand what you guys are saying. However, from a competitive standpoint, I couldn't operate like that. If somebody has a win over me (official or not) and I think I'm the better fighter, I want to get out there and prove that. Ryan can't use Haney to rebuild his credibility if Haney beats his ass. If Haney can do to Ryan what Haney says he can do, then that will more or less prove to most people that the drugs were the only reason that Ryan was competitive.
