Ryan Garcia has found some new inspiration to put in a bit of hard work. While he has a thunderous left hook to dismantle and bring anyone down to the floor, Garcia now wants to train his right hand like Anthony Joshua to produce a jaw-dropping knockout. That’s not all. He also predicts a brutal end to his upcoming fight.

‘KingRy’ is slated to face Devin Haney on April 20, with the WBC super lightweight strap on the line. Despite his hand speed and vicious left hook, he continues to add weapons to his arsenal to conquer a technically skilled champion. However, it seems the 25-year-old doesn’t want to bridge the skills gap, but intends to finish the fight early. How can he pull it off?

The signs are visible in the training clips that Garcia shared recently on his social media handle. In one clip, the Victorville native is hitting the punching bag, showcasing his elite hand speed and the power behind his left hook. But in the initial seconds, you could witness him unloading some huge right-hand punches, producing a frightening sound as they land on the punching bag.

It seems Garcia wants to replicate ‘AJ’, whose devastating right punches left Francis Ngannou‘s face flat on the canvas and previously knocked the lights out of Otto Wallin. In addition, he wants to finish the fight early against Haney with a knockout win in the fifth round. Garcia wrote in the comments of the clip, “Training that right hand like Joshua did to knockout Francis. Ryan by knockout in the fifth.”

Similarly, in another training clip, the fans can witness the 24-1 record holder moving swiftly, akin to circling the ring and throwing punches in the air. Moreover, Garcia has hinted at bringing a similar version of him to the squared circle. The caption read, “Punching Air, moving my legs, as if I was fighting @derrickdjames1 @procoachhenry @daznboxing.”

Despite his recent social media shenanigans, Garcia appears determined and focused, in these training clips. Currently, he is at a training camp in Dallas with his coach, Derrick James. It remains to be seen whether he can come on top against Haney with his speed. Whether Garcia’s left hook can overcome Haney’s boxing prowess and clinch the WBC title, only time will tell.
