The highly anticipated fight between Ryan Garcia and Gervonta Davis is just a day away, and tensions are rising as both camps prepare for the showdown. Recently, Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe was accused of having spies in Garcia’s camp, but ‘KingRy’ seems unfazed by the allegations.
Ellerbe claimed that he knows everything about Garcia’s camp, from their sparring partners to their game plan. Moreover, he even suggested that he knows exactly what Garcia will be attempting to do in the ring. However, ‘KingRy’ argues that he fights the same way every time, his main weapon is his left hook, and the spies will not affect him.

In a recent interview with Fight Hype, Garcia claimed that he couldn’t care less about the spies Ellerbe had allegedly sent. According to him, the promoter cannot change the outcome of the fight despite all his efforts to play games.
“I don’t care what he says. He can’t stop what’s already going to happen. Brother, you can send in all the spies and Judists that you can send out. It won’t stop what’s going to happen,” he said.
The accusations of spying may have some effect on Garcia. However, ultimately, it is up to the fighters to deliver in the ring.

Garcia and Davis both have a lot to prove, and they will be looking to make a statement on Saturday night.
