Ryan Garcia Pays Devin Haney $1.5 Million For Missing Weight, Seemingly Doesn't Care

At yesterday's press conference, Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia agreed to a bet on Ryan making weight. In the clip above, you can see Ryan Garcia's father pleading with his son to not agree to the bet, which was then increased form $500k flat to $500k per pound missed. 

2 hours before the weigh-in, Devin Haney informed us that Garcia was way over:

This was confirmed by Dan Rafael quickly after:

Questions then arose if the fight would even happen. Three pounds doesn't sound like a lot to the normal person, but in boxing, it could signal a fight being called off. 

Also, was the $500k bet going to be paid?

A smooth $1,500,000 lost by Ryan Garcia….when he knew he was overweight. What a move. If his dad knew his weight, he knew his weight. He's going to make millions on this fight, but losing an extra 1.5? Wild. Seems like the guy doesn't care.
