Moreover, Deen the Great even threw a cash challenge into the mix, promising to reward anyone if Garcia took a knee during the bout.

The aftermath of the bout left the boxing community in a whirlwind of opinions, with some lauding Garcia’s bold approach while others criticized his perceived lack of defensive acumen. Brendan Mosley didn’t mince words, declaring, “Ryan Garcia looked like s*it,”

However, amidst the celebratory messages, Arnold Barboza had a different take. “Congratulations on your W. Let’s run it.”

Furthermore, fans urged Garcia to reflect on his leaning-back strategy during shoulder rolls, suggesting that it exposed him defensively. Despite his recent comeback win, Garcia finds himself entangled in a loop of uncertainty, grappling with a streak of bad luck.

Ryan Garcia can’t catch a break

In spite of the 8th-round TKO, with almost everything going against him, Garcia undoubtedly gets the job done. This is despite his own promoters, boxing bigwig and Founder of Golden Boy Promotion, Oscar De La Hoya, and co-founder Bernard Hopkins allegedly being against him, as he pointed out in a recent presser for the bout.

Subsequently, Garcia’s lawyer and adviser, Guadalupe Valencia recently went on the record to release a statement stating unequivocally that the recent public statements from De La Hoya and Hopkins have been incredibly peculiar. In a forceful declaration, Valencia stated, “A promoter’s role is to boost a fight and support the fighters, particularly when dealing with a superstar like Ryan Garcia. I doubt anyone, whether in or outside of boxing, believes they are effectively promoting Ryan. It’s genuinely perplexing why Oscar De La Hoya and Bernard Hopkins make such unusual remarks.”

The lawyer, asserting that Ryan is an intelligent individual capable of independent thought, further challenged the notion that Garcia is easily swayed by those in his circle. “Ryan is more astute than them. He doesn’t require a team to decipher what they are saying. It’s not plausible to construct a narrative that he is receiving misguided advice.”

At the heart of the matter appears to be the promoters’ comments regarding Garcia, prompting Valencia to express his disappointment in the behavior of those responsible for advancing Garcia’s career.

In a sport where style and technique are paramount, Garcia’s daring approach has sparked both admiration and criticism. As the boxing community debates the effectiveness of his unconventional moves, Garcia remains a polarizing figure with a victory that leaves fans hungry for more.
