I thought the agreement after the missed weight cut was the title to be vacated if Haney lost?

There is no agreement needed because it should be automatically declared vacant as a general rule in boxing. Another disgraceful decision by the corrupt WBC. It is too unfair to the other fighters that worked hard to improve their ratings for a chance of getting a title fight. The WBC can just tell both Garcia and Haney to rematch for the vacant belt.

Although it seems like Ryan is not interested at 140 anymore. At the moment, it is Sandor Martin that is ranked 1st in the WBC ranking and he can fight Haney for the vacant belt if Ryan won't drop to 140.

Probably it will be good for Haney will fight Sandor Martin, or at least if Martin is the mandatory, then I will say that it could be an easy fight for him. At least it's less risk and most likely a fight that he will get his confidence back after humbling lost he got from Ryan Garcia.

For Ryan he could go as high as 147 lbs if he can't make 140 lbs. And his height is about that weight class, at 5'9. But he mentioned Fundora at 154 lbs and maybe a catch weight as Oscar says. And it also ends the debate on us or someone comparing Floyd and Devin Haney.
