Conor Benn targets Devin Haney’s pool-party photo with ‘Diddy’ as drama surrounding artist explodes on social media
Conor Benn took a stinging jab at Devin Haney about his association with music mogul Sean 'Diddy' Combs. The pair have been engaged in a fierce rivalry and tried to get the upper hand in the one-upping game of social media altercations.
Recently, boxing journalist Michael Benson posted a video of Haney conversing with Eddie Hearn while attending the Daniel Dubois vs. Anthony Joshua event. Benn, who was also present at the venue, could be seen in the background as he looked on. Haney re-posted the video and joked about Benn testing positive for banned substances in the past.
The British boxer responded by posting a picture of Haney attending a pool party with Combs. He wrote in the caption:
"We know canvas isn't the only thing you eat you little pr**k."
Combs is one of the most notable figures in the music industry. While he has helped launch several music stars in recent years, he has been embroiled in controversies accusing him of serious crimes like sex trafficking, sexual abuse, and r*pe. Controversial audio surfaced a few months ago, claiming that 'Diddy' was having sexual relations with men.
Ryan Garcia also criticized Devin Haney for his links with Sean 'Diddy' Combs
Ryan Garcia handed Devin Haney his first professional boxing loss in April. However, the result was overturned to No Contest after Garcia tested positive for banned substances and subsequently received a one-year suspension. The pair have been engaged in a war of words ever since and Haney has accused Garcia of being a cheater.
After Haney's picture with Sean 'Diddy' Combs went viral, Garcia took to X and wrote:
"The undisputed freak-off champion Devin “I can’t take an L” Haney. Only used 5 bottles of baby oil And didn’t tap out."
Haney and Combs' shirtless pool-side picture had first surfaced earlier this year. Heading into the fight, Garcia had posted a video of him training while wearing a t-shirt that had a picture printed on it. During an episode of 4HUNNID Podcast, Haney admitted to having attended Combs' parties. However, there is no evidence about the nature of his relationship with the controversial music mogul.
