The relationship between  Ryan Garcia and Oscar De La Hoya has been blurry in the last few months. The 24-year-old fought against Gervonta Davis in the fighting capital of the world, Las Vegas. Moreover, ‘KingRy, was handed a devastating defeat by the undefeated boxer. Post the fight, Garcia was seen all by himself in the post-fight press conference. Subsequently, the young boxer called out his $200,000,000 worth of promoter for not being present with him on social media.

De La Hoya, on the other hand, was far from sorry and had a hostile response. A few days later, it was reported that Golden Boy Promotions filed a lawsuit against the boxer for a contractual breach. Many thought that their relationship as a fighter promoter had come to a halt. However, in a recent turn of events, ‘The Golden Boy’ named a potential opponent for Garcia.
