“Teach him what took you a Lifetime”: Mike Tyson labelling Ryan Garcia as ‘People’s Champion’ Ahead of Oscar Duarte fight Fails to impress Fans

Ryan Garcia linked up with Mike Tyson ahead of his fight. Earlier this year, ‘KingRy,’ was defeated by Gervonta Davis. However, the young boxer is eager to make a comeback. On December 2nd, he will return to the squared circle and face Oscar Duarte. Moreover, in a recent turn of events, former heavyweight champion, ‘Iron Mike,’ linked up with Garcia.

While positing a series of images with him and his family, Tyson addressed the 24-year-old as the “People’s champion.” This title and get-together have left the boxing world in splits.

The pictures posted by Tyson featured him having a good time with Garcia, his brother, and his father. While sharing the picture, he captioned it by stating, “Always enjoy hanging with the people’s champ”

This is how the fans reacted:

One fan noticed that both combatants are two notable fighters from their generation. Reflecting on the same, he stated, “Sr and jr”

Meanwhile, one fan disagreed with Tyson and did not consider Garcia to be a people’s champion. He stated, “He ain’t the people’s champion”

However, on the contrary, one fan stated that Garcia can only be a people champ if he has more humility. He stated, “Teach him what took you a lifetime: humbleness… and he’ll probably become a people’s champion just like you are.”

Whereas, one fan is just awestruck to see the two together. He stated, “A lot of KO’s in 1 pic.”

Last but not least, one fan had nothing but praise for the two. He stated, “That’s right champ! Love to hang out with you talk boxing! The best heavyweight of all time’

It is safe to say that this meet-up has ignited the boxing world to perceive it in many distinct ways and it is evident from their reactions. Moreover, this has not been the only instance the two have met each other. Let’s look back at that time when Garcia confessed to Tyson about his ultimate wish.

Garcia is a fan of Sugar Ray Robinson, to the extent that he wished that he had the opportunity to train with him. This confession, for the first time, was disclosed publicly on Mike Tyson’s podcast, ‘Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson.’ Reflecting on the same, he stated, “I would wanna train with uh, Sugar Ray Robinson.” He added, “Just because one of my favourite fighters I looked up to was Muhammad Ali and he said, ‘Sugar Ray Robinson was the best fighter ever.’ So I’m thinking I thought you were.”
