“His Smartness Is the Question”: Ryan Garcia Training With Derrick James in a Recent Clip Ahead of December Return Fails to Impress Fans

On April 22, 2023, Gervonta Davis defeated Ryan Garcia in a much-awaited match. Davis knocked down Garcia in the second round and won in the seventh with a perfect body shot. The knockout happened at the packed T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. But now, Ryan Garcia plans to make a comeback.

Recently, he even posted a selfie from a car, saying he’s returning with a vengeance. This is because ‘King Ry’ feels disrespected and says he’s been fighting at only 50% of his ability. Meanwhile, in another recent video, we see Ryan Garcia practicing with his trainer, Derrick James. But looks like he has to try a little harder to impress his fans.

Why are fans unimpressed with the training of Ryan Garcia?

Ryan Garcia aims to dispel rumors about his potential. He’s shifted his focus from social media to winning a championship. He wrote, “I’m tired of the disrespect. I’ve been at 50% too long. Things will change. I promise myself. I’m focused on becoming a champion.” Despite the fervor for winning, fans censured his performance.

One fan questioned the fighter’s intelligence in the ring, implying that raw power isn’t the issue at hand. The fan wrote, “Power wasn’t his problem, his smartness is the question.”

Another fan was puzzled by the limited number of jabs thrown in the video, wondering what the fighter was actually trying to showcase. The fan said, “He literally threw 2 jabs in this video, I don’t understand what does he show.”

This sentiment is echoed by a third viewer, who humorously suggested that even with multiple trainers, the fighter lacked the basic fundamentals. The viewer said, “Ryan could have 10 different trainers and still have no fundamentals.”

Further elaborating on the technique, a fourth user offered a detailed critique. They wish the fighter would not lower his guard after throwing a jab and suggested a specific sequence of moves for better performance. This fan acknowledged that the fighter has fast hands but implied that this isn’t enough. The user wrote, “I would have like to have seen him after shooting that jab, not back off with his hand down, and when Derrick James was poking the jab, parry the punches and counter with two jabs, followed with one jab, then follow with 1, 2, keeping his hand up at all times. Ryan Garcia always did have fast hands.”

Furthermore, another follower called for a change in training, criticizing the trainer for imparting a one-size-fits-all fighting style. The follower said, “He needs another trainer!! He teaches the same fighting style to everyone.”
