# Regis Prograis Reacts To Devin Haney And Ryan Garcia Interest: “I Love That Fight”

WBC Super-Lightweight Champion, Regis Prograis, has provided an update as to whom he may face on his next professional outing as he seeks a blockbuster bout with one of the sport’s top stars.

Prograis knocked out Jose Zepeda in emphatic style last November to regain his champion status after a loss to Josh Taylor three years prior ended his first title reign.

Last month, he made the first defence of his new belt, in a successful yet underwhelming return to his hometown of New Orleans. He [edged out a split-decision victory against the unorthodox Danielito Zorrilla](https://www.espn.co.uk/boxing/story/_/id/37871406/prograis-tops-zorrilla-defends-wbc-junior-welterweight-title), but is hopeful that a more recognised opponent will bring out the best of him.

[Eddie Hearn has suggested that he is close to agreeing a deal for ‘Rougarou’](https://wp.boxing-social.com/news/devin-haney-likely-next-opponent/) to face undisputed lightweight champion, Devin Haney, but [the 34-year-old told ESNEWS that terms are far from agreed](https://youtu.be/f4R5tuBg_O4) and also showed interest in a clash with Ryan Garcia.

> “I love the fight with me and Ryan. He took it down, I don’t know what that is about, but I love the fight with me and Ryan bro, he said to holla at him, I’ve been kind of staying off of the internet right now, but I see things. Everybody is calling me out, so I’m a hot commodity right now, we will see.”

> “I absolutely love that fight \[with Devin\] too. The only thing about that, you have got to pay me, that’s it. I love the fight, but I’m the champion and you’ve got to pay me. I don’t know how much I can say, but so far they aren’t talking about what I am talking about. That’s a big a\*\* fight, you’ve got to pay for that.”

It appears that Prograis will indeed get the pay-per-view encounter that he so desires, but it remains anyone’s guess as to who may be in the opposing corner.
