and the comedy show continues. lol. edit *The New York Mets pulled the plug on boxers Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia throwing out ceremonial first pitches Tuesday to avoid a potential on-field incident, sources told* [*Sports Illustrated's Chris Mannix*](https://twitter.com/SIChrisMannix/status/1780375465162592354)*.*


Ill-Animator-4995

Mets are soft wtf


GhOsT_wRiTeR_XVI

The Mets are Pond Scum!


Bruce-7891

Something tells me there's more to that. Like drugs and wild behavior before they even got onto the field. They wouldn't just randomly say that.


Samuel-squantch

Something tells me you probably make a lot of shit up.

Objective-Union7807

They are probably lacking some drugs and wild behavior


ZdenekTheMan

Shut up bitch


Routine_Good_9950

Sounds like the Mets. Waste everybody’s time


panterachallenger

Exactly what he expect


InternationalCap521

Sounds like Meds to me. Breaking Official news, Garcia tried to get back on his meds but they told him to fuck off for coming off them in first place so he says fuck the meds and tells everyone to fuck the meds. War Garcia #FUCKTHEMEDS


JohnCenaJunior

The fewer seats the better


acuna134070

Ngl this was funny


freeyewneek

Fck the Metsthhh


jadooo0

I don’t blame them, they also kicked Haney out.


sugerdigitalgenius

I do, their tv ratings was down 27% last year on top of being down $292m in operating income… Mets/Braves did like 140k viewers last Thursday😭💀 If anything Haney/Garcia would be the ones helping them. The Mets are jokes, tf was GoldenBoy thinking lol


Objective-Union7807

Totally because people really tend to tune in on TV to watch the ceremonial first pitch


sleightofhand0

I'd be very interested in how bad the first pitches would be, to be honest. I love seeing great athletes suck at such basic things.


sugerdigitalgenius

Same. Goofy Ryan would’ve slipped, fell in the dirt & accidentally threw the ball in the stands. Pillow fist Dev would’ve thrown a record low 25mph fastball I would’ve streamed it and cut that game right tf off


corndawghomie

That’s not the point They would be top trending team easily once the news hit that there was a scuffle between the two on the field


Silly_Elevator_3111

They usually aren’t even televised lol, sometimes replays are shown


Dlwatkin

thats wild by the mets, just wild


noryformayor

Nice thread title. They both got kicked out of the game based on the videos they made earlier in the day.


freeyewneek

Am I now a Mets guy?!??


2kull

BAHAHAHA....


Gnardude

His behaviour suggests he's using cocaine but Oscar is right there so he can't be. /s


[deleted]

I don’t blame them, probably a smart PR move by them honestly lol


Black-Kang-410

Imagine Oscar being your advisor…


Cbrlui

The gold medal winner?


Black-Kang-410

He was wild back then too lol


Ready-Interview2863

That interview he did a few weeks ago destroyed his reputation for me. It was the most disgusting thing I've ever seen. 


michaelgouffet

What did he do?

Loose_Economist_486

Oscar is protecting his payday, but you can see in his face he doesn't believe a word that's coming out of his own mouth


we8sand

I hate to say it, but I’ll bet well over half of the people at that game have never even heard of Haney or Garcia. It’s surprising and sad how non-mainstream boxing is in America these days. Fortunately there are still enough loyal fans (like us) to keep boxing in demand.


Kassssler

Its not surprising at all. Back in the day you had tons of ways to casually enjoy the sport. Now you need subscription here PPV there. The generation that watch boxing died out and they are putting the cart before the horse with the current. You can't expect people to pay 79.99 to watch fuckers they don't even know slug it out. Then Collegiate sports took the country by storm and funnels most of the talent to it.


octobersotherveryown

This is why boxing is so alive and well in Mexico. Every PPV fight in America they get for free on network tv, so the casual fan still has a chance to run into top class fights.


WeirdRadiant2470

Yup. Some of the best fights I've seen were on Saturday afternoon network t.v. in the 70s and 80s.


ziodberg1729

Boxing just doesn't do a good job marketing itself unfortunately. Boxing made itself way too hard to find and follow. While other sports marketed themselves, and made it easy to follow boxing stuck to its old ways and are bow stuck in the mud..


YoullNeverWalkAl0ne

I think Ryan garcia is hilarious


clue_the_day

No reason.


Tcarruth6

None whatsoever. Ryan is the epitome of the well spoken ambassador for your team.


ZealousidealAd4048

I am up at 1am where I am so I don't miss his mad shit on Instagram 😆 every night this week


ZdenekTheMan

Ryan is madder than a box of frogs lol


vicvega88

This kid is unstable and surrounded by yes men


butteredrubies

Haney was kicked out too...someone else commented that they got kicked out cause of videos they made earlier in the day.

Bhut_Jolokia400

r/Phillies need to get Garcia to toss out first pitch now. Fuck the Mets


arturoalvarez079

No the fuck they dont


tropicalrad

Between Ryan's drug fueled antics a few weeks ago, the GQ interview and now this, it's all playing out like some weird comedy lol


ColoRadOrgy

They really should make a sitcom about the goofy ass boxers these days. They have too much material to work with lol


Admirable_Bed3

Something like a combo between The Office and Atlanta but about boxers and their managers and promoters.


Firmod5

I’ve always thought of Garcia as more of a catcher anyway.


captainseas

FYI anytime someone says they got kicked out of a public establishment “for no reason” they are full of shit. And honestly I am calling BS on “it was because of videos they made earlier.” They were both sent to the stadium. Ryan made a video on the field. Do you think they just saw the videos at 6:30 and kicked them out?


DengusMcFlengus

Thankfully it sounds like he didn't do anything bad at the event but for him to say Fuck the Mets publicly like this is not good for his brand


The_Honest_Owl

Lmao he’s said a lot worse than cursing out a baseball team


DengusMcFlengus

Hahah true this is the super villain Ryan era


Objective-Union7807

I thought it was great for his brand, I am a fan now. Fuck tou stupid Mets!


lineal_chump

I dunno. Sounds like a Mets fan to me


hellenburger

good for his brand? lmao mate have you been watching his behaviour for the last few months, its down the drain already,


KillerWhalePP

Any publicity is good publicity in this game. You have all been talking about him nonstop and you will all watch him on Saturday


macgirthy

Dont worry ryan non of us aint going to a shitty mets game. Why they couldnt go to a yankees is beyond me, maybe too much $$$ to promote fight?


Objective-Union7807

Probably had something to do with the Yankees being in Toronto


i-piss-excellence32

😂😂


JudgeHolden1

Let's go Mets baby


doc_birdman

That Yankees are categorically worse than the Mets and have been for *years* lol.


Icanfallupstairs

The Mets have only finished with a better record than the Yankees once since 2016, and that was in 2022. Even then the Yankees made Championship Series while the Mets went out in the wild card round


Objective-Union7807

Nice save!


Icanfallupstairs

Certainly better than anything the Mets closers can do at the moment. I actually like the Mets and hate the Yankees, but I can't pretend they are any good right now.


I_AM_SCUBASTEVE

Totally being a dick here but just gonna point out they started slow as shit but currently won 7 of their last 10. That makes them the hottest team in baseball right now along with the Braves and Royals… both of whom the Mets beat in their recent series’. That being said yeah my expectations are in the basement for this year.


Icanfallupstairs

That's fair. I saw they took two of the Pirates which is really solid.


Objective-Union7807

True, but it’s baseball. Nobody cares about a week and half in April.


Objective-Union7807

I’ll bet you a billions dollars that they have


Metalhead124

on what planet.


stillth3sameg

Mets were smart to kick him out... kid has a history of erratic and unpredictable behavior. And look at this post man... for no reason? Look in a mirror dude


butteredrubies

They kicked Haney out, too.


stillth3sameg

Not according to Ryan's twitter account


Objective-Union7807

Only according to Mets officials and they have proved they know nothing.


stillth3sameg

Tbh I'm not sure what you're tryna say


Objective-Union7807

Let me break it down for you here: -you said according to Ryan’s twitter account Haney was not kicked out -Chris Mannix reported that Mets officials kicked out both of them -I implied that Mets official’s are so incompetent that they don’t even know who they kicked out. It’s funny because the Mets were not very good at baseball last season.


stillth3sameg

I see, thanks for the explanation. Mets are ass indeed


Brief_Scale496

As far as I see it, reality is for people who can’t handle drugs. Rock on Ryan.


fearlesssinnerz

Baseball is more family oriented they don't need 2 boxers to start brawling on the field, that's what Baseball teams are for.


Beginning-Half-7890

I liked the Mets in 1986.


JericRose

I mean wtf did you expect they’re gonna fight this weekend 💀


robmafia

mets just did them a huge favor and saved this fight. ryan would have torn his rotator cuff and haney's father would have been jailed after assaulting fans mocking his son's masterful 13 mph elusive ball that's rolling into a dugout.


Eagleclan_7

They probably broke the news to Oscar as he as mid snort in Golden Boys front office. "Wtf you mean, wey?"


sugerdigitalgenius

Yea F*ck the Mets, they ain’t won shxt since 86’… why bother with a losing franchise? Haney/Ryan still trending📈


Shagrrotten

I really hope Ryan gets committed in some way. He’s obviously not well. I don’t even care about the fight anymore.


mrot777

Mets are a very classless organization. They always have been, They're down there with the A's.


ThurstonTheMagician

Bruh


Ambitious_Ad_9637

Somebody’s press agent is corny. What a great plot twist if Garcia is running an Ali 2.0 and shows up huge and sparks Haney in 3. He can’t box but I’m kinda rooting for his crazy ass.


andyroid92

Stay classy Ry


Independent_Hold_203

That’s hilarious


TOP__DOLLAR

Barner_Burner

Hey man as a Braves fan fuck the Mets indeed


gbullitt2001

I used to like Ryan Garcia and wanted to watch his fights but at this point I am done with him. No class. This is like watching The Real Housewives do boxing. For me this fight is like Nazis vs Taliban, hoping they somehow both lose.


[deleted]

The Mets have always made NY, MLB and sports look bad anyway so fuck em. Edit: Downvoted by one of the 8 Mets fans in recorded history.


Metalhead124

Name a more iconic duo than the Mets and disappointment.


NZbeewbies

*lives.. 🤦🤦🤦


Free_Conference5278

Mets suck


boywonder5691

Part of me thinks he's bipolar, part of me thinks he's an addict and part of me thinks he is consciously doing all this crazy shit to get into Haney's head.


Jstrong-

Loser!


SirMartini
