Mike Tyson Asks Ryan Garcia to Be Selfish- ‘It’s All About the Purpose’

Mike Tyson delivered some life-changing advice to Ryan Garcia as the 22-year-old recently. Following a sensational TKO win over Luke Campbell, Garcia called out Gervonta Davis for a fight.

That said, it’s all glory and stardom for Ryan Garcia. He is clearly a superstar and has a global following at the age of 22. Akin to him, former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson saw a similar fortune back in his prime.

He also became a world phenomenon at a young age. The fact that he did it at a time when social media was not as prevalent makes it all the more impressive. Tyson almost reached every corner of the world. Tyson offered Ryan Garcia some advice on how to look up to his career.

The podcast is yet to be aired for the fans. However, ES News already revealed a glimpse where the two can be seen engaged in a deep conversation.

Mike Tyson advised Garcia to search for a purpose. As per the heavyweight great, everything has a reason and a reason to serve. So, he counseled the young Interim champion before he steps up to take on bigger challenges in his glittery career.

‘Iron’ Mike said, “Everybody in your life right now if they don’t have a purpose, why should they be in your life? If they don’t have a purpose, why should they be in your life It’s all about the purpose. Everybody, family members. They have to serve some purpose.”

If that’s not enough, Tyson also envisioned Garcia and Davis to be friends in the future. Tyson turned out to be friends with his former rivals, including the likes of Evander Holyfield and Lennox Lewis.

Although he had bad-blood with the legends, they are all friends now. So, he predicted the same for Garcia.

What’s next for Ryan Garcia?

The WBC Interim lightweight champion wants to face Gervonta Davis next. However, Devin Haney is the WBC lightweight champion and is the ultimate fight for Garcia’s current spot. If Garcia wants to get past Haney, he might have to vacate his title.

Else, Teofimo Lopez can also slide in to unify the WBC world lightweight titles and take the lightweight world by storm by going toe to toe against the winner of Garcia vs Davis. 2021 looks like an interesting year for boxing, and fans have a lot to look forward to.
