On July 7, Ryan Garcia‘s younger brother Sean Garcia was fed his first professional defeat by Amado Vargas. It is now being reported that after this fight, Ryan and Sean Garcia’s strength and conditioning coach betrayed the Garcia family by deciding to train Vargas. Apart from this betrayal, an altercation over financial compensation led the coach in question to call the police on 23-year-old Sean.

The animosity between Amado Vargas and Sean Garcia was palpable at the pre-fight press conference. Besides branding Fernando Vargas Jr., Amado’s younger brother, as a “keyboard fighter” in his remarks on social media, Sean Garcia promised to ‘end the [Vargas] dynasty.” Therefore, when Sean’s strength and conditioning coach sided with rival Vargas, both Sean and Ryan Garcia naturally reacted with hostility.

Taking to social media, Ryan Garcia revealed, “So my strength and conditioning coach for years, one man I have paid millions of dollars to, just called the police on my brother.” Although he did not go into detail, Garcia added, “My brother was just defending himself because of the betrayal.

As details are awaited on the matter, it is worth noticing that Ryan Garcia promised to take charge of Sean’s training for the rematch against Amado Vargas.

Speaking to Fight Hub TV, having embraced Amado’s father, former two-time Light-Middleweight champion Fernando Vargas, Sean admitted that he was “scared and let his “nerves got to me.” However, Ryan Garcia announced on X that he possesses the capacity to “knock out you [Amado] and all your brothers pretty easy.” Additionally, he announced he was going to train Sean.

I wasn’t in his corner. [But] you can [now] call for the rematch and I’m his head trainer. Amado, what’s good?” Ryan Garcia said in a video. When he shared the brief clip on X, referring to the PED he tested positive for, ‘KingRy’ wrote, “Ostarine alcohol and the right hook for Sean. Is the regiment I’m currently working on with Sean.” In conclusion, he stated he would embrace a “permanent ban” from boxing once Sean Garcia has made $50 Million from the sport.
