Garcia captioned the video: "Gervonta Tank Davis ROCKS Devin Haney!!!"
Davis can be seen unloading a barrage of heavy punches on Haney, who appeared to be on unsteady legs on more than one occasion.
At one point, Adrien Broner even jumps into the ring to break up the pair as the back and forth gets out of hand.
Garcia will have posted the clip in the hopes of getting under Haney's skin ahead of their upcoming grudge match on April 20 at the Barclays Centre, New York.

There is no love lost between the pair, which was evident at their launch press conference at the Palladium Times Square in the Big Apple.
Sparks flew as both men traded verbal jabs. "Listen, we've seen Ryan quit before, we've seen him take a knee before and quit," said Haney in reference to Garcia's stoppage loss to Davis in April of last year.
"On April 20, it's going to be no different." Well, Garcia clearly took exception to this comment and levelled the score by posting Haney being battered by 'Tank'.
The overriding narrative heading into fight night is both men's juxtaposing approaches.

Haney has, as always, been a consonant professional and looks to be leaving no stone unturned in the gym.
Meanwhile, Garcia has been accused of turning up to their first press conference drunk and, at least on the surface, looks as though he may be taking his eye off the ball.

“You’ve been drinking. I can smell it on your breath,” said Haney during their first face-off earlier this week.
Garcia initially denied it was liquor but then retorted: "Guess what, I’ll drink a beer and beat the f**k out of you.
"I bet I would. I know you want me to so even if I did I'd beat the f**k out of you.”
The truth will come to light when they square off in the biggest lie detector of all - the ring - next month.
