Ryan Garcia faced significant consequences after failing to make the required weight for his WBC super lightweight title fight against Devin Haney. Weighing in at 143.5 lbs, 3 lbs over the limit, Garcia was seen drinking and chugging a beer during the weigh-in and the final ceremonial face-off. This action led to a chaotic scene and resulted in Garcia being fined £1.5 million, payable to Haney. Additionally, the fight will no longer be for the title due to Garcia's failure to meet the weight requirement.
