Ryan Garcia wants to go to Saudi Arabia, but it’s not for a fight, unlike other boxers. His fight against Devin Haney will be held at the Barclays Center, in Brooklyn, New York. So, as of now, he doesn’t have any commercial reason to visit the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. However, a significant development might entice ‘KingRy’ to pack his bags and travel there.
Weeks ago, fans mourned the death of the Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama, and even Garcia paid tribute to him in one of his videos. Now, it has been announced that the world’s first-ever Dragon Ball theme park is being constructed in Saudi Arabia. So, expressing his love for the anime, Garcia has expressed the desire to visit this theme park.

You know, that crazy stuff.” He continued, “But then I was like, I want something more, you know, more of a storyline, so I looked into Naruto, and the storyline of the show was amazing.”
