Currently suspended in the US from boxing Ryan Garcia has never been one to mince his words even when he is sober.
He always breaks things down as he does.
The X platform sees some of his most explosive comments but he’s gone on one below on Crawford, boxing, being cancelled and more.
Speaking on a live social media stream with fans Garcia said:
“I think a lot of people are confused about how to handle this situation. They are very scared, and they don’t know what to do. I think everybody’s scared of getting “canceled” for having an opinion. Nobody really stands on anything in boxing. Everybody’s kind of scared, which is weird.
As far as Bud Crawford, I called him out already. I think he’s only trying to fight Canelo Alvarez, so I don’t think it’s going to happen. I would love to fight Bud Crawford. I don’t think he’s as good as people say. I’ve said this publicly, and I’ll say it live right now: if Bud is listening, I would love to fight you. I feel like I would literally beat the crap out of you. You’re a good fighter, but I don’t think you’ve ever fought someone with talent, explosiveness, and power like mine.
I mean, you beat Shawn Porter, and he’s a great fighter, but kind of basic. Errol Spence Jr. came off a crash, so I don’t think he’s that good. Have you fought anyone with one-punch knockout power? No. So I feel like Bud Crawford is overrated. Now, you all can have your own opinions, but that’s how I feel. I’m a boxer, and I don’t care. I’ll fight him. I’ll beat the crap out of him. I feel that in my heart, and that’s it. Point blank, period.
And I would actually fight him. There’s a difference. You would actually see Ryan Garcia in the ring with Bud Crawford. I don’t know about the other fighters. I can’t speak for them, but I would fight Bud Crawford. And I would go in there and give it everything I’ve got. If he doesn’t want it, that’s not my fault. If he doesn’t think it’s a good match, that’s not my fault either. He’s not a draw. He doesn’t bring anything to the table. He’s boring as hell. But I’d probably give him the biggest payday of his life if he takes the fight. Absolutely.
Thank you, that’s what I feel too. I think it would make a lot of people a lot of money.
Let’s move right along. Let’s get to the hands. We’ve got Joel, Slime, and then CJ, in that order.
Joel: “I honestly just wanted to pray real quick, if that’s okay.”
Yeah, go ahead.
Joel: “Dear Heavenly Father, Lord, I just thank you for every trial we face. The wickedness comes against us, but we always trust in You. No matter what we face, I thank You that even though sometimes it seems hard and negative, and stuff keeps coming, we can still give You the praise and the glory. I ask You to continue to use Ryan during this time and to use him as a testimony of Your love for all of us. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.”
Amen, amen.
I got a question for everyone: what do you think I should do during my time off? What would be a good move for me?
Continue training, brother. Keep training, man, that’s what I think. The training videos, bro, that’s why you’re a draw. They just hate on you because you know how to market yourself.
I think I possess something rare for a boxer. I can do a video and show myself faster than anybody. I feel like I’m one of the fastest boxers in the world, and a lot of people haven’t seen that. It’s like Bruce Lee—they didn’t love his fighting; they loved what he displayed. I can display speed, and I’ve been blessed by God with both speed and power. Power doesn’t really show on camera, but speed does, and people like that when I train.
This year has been tough. I’ve gone through legal battles and a divorce, which made it hard for me to give fans what they want to see. But I’m getting back to it, going to Dallas to train and prepare for exhibitions in Dubai and Tokyo. I’ll keep you guys updated.
I feel like I was entering my prime, but then this year hit, which was complete crap. I was just as shocked as everyone when the news came out. What’s even more strange is that his little brother knew I was going to test positive for PEDs days before it happened. How did he know that? That’s fishy. But I truly believe the truth will always prevail. There’s been a lot of weird stuff going on this year, and this is just one part of it.
They didn’t think a Christian man could win this fight. I was an underdog, 9 to 1 at one point, and then I came out victorious. Devin Haney didn’t land any hard punches, except for that left hook that caught me off guard. But I came right back. I was breaking him down, little by little, and I dropped him. The ref could have stopped the fight many times. He was out of it. In the 11th round, I looked at Haney’s dad and said, “You should stop the fight.” Haney wasn’t there anymore. It was sad, and then I dropped him again.
Maybe he should sue his dad. I mean, Ryan had a billionth of a gram of a substance in his system, and that almost killed Devin? Come on.
This all started when I began exposing pedophiles. People started attacking me for that. Podcasts were saying, “What’s wrong with Ryan Garcia?” I was just advocating for kids, and then everything came out, proving I was right.
At the end of the day, kids matter the most, and I don’t care about the consequences. You can sue me all you want, take all my money, but it’s not going to stop me. Jesus said we’d be persecuted for standing in His name, and I believe I’m on the right path. If people are this mad at me, I must be doing something right.
They’ll come at anyone with a strong voice. Look at Robert Kennedy Jr. He’s speaking against the food industry, and they’re attacking him. Same with Trump. Anyone who stands up gets knocked down. But I’m not scared. I’m going to keep moving forward and doing what’s right, no matter what.”
Garcia directly chats to regular fans one to one, direct, more frequently than not just any well known, high-level pro athlete in boxing, but in all of professional sports.
He doesn’t need PR agents or middlemen, the previous response applies and says it all about Garcia’s willingness to talk directly with fans one to one on live streams.
