After picking up a massive upset win in April, Ryan Garcia says he’s done with the sport of boxing.
As it stands currently, Garcia earned a decision win over Devin Haney at an April 20 event in Brooklyn, but the victory came with controversy after he tested positive for a banned substance — which Garcia’s team announced was due to a pair of tainted supplements. On top of that, Garcia was arrested for felony vandalism in Beverly Hills, Calif., earlier this month.
With everything piling up in Garcia’s life, the star boxer released a barrage of tweets Wednesday that led to him announcing he’s done with boxing.
Mom has cancer
I’m being sued
My supplements were tainted
Going thru a divorce
Always GETTING SHIT TALKED on the internet FOR YEARS
Devin asking for my victory to be taken away
I’m getting hit with everything
I STILL LOVE GOD, HE IS EVERYTHING

Yall judge me on the things I say
For example Caleb plant situation
He talked about me when J never talked about him
While I’m going thru a really hard time in my life
I’m human I’m not God I will make mistakes
I’ve really only tried to put money in everyone’s pockets…

Boxing will be alright without me
But still sucks I was fun in the game
And it was fun to punch people

I MAY RETIRE IM DONE WITH THIS GAME

Forget I existed everyone
— RYAN GARCIA (@RyanGarcia) June 19, 2024
Yall may catch me out and about but as far as boxing I don’t know
There is so much corruption I’m over it
I may do acting or singing
I’ll still be training but I’m hurt and done with it and everyone
The sad part is I’m a great boxer
And I entertain and knock people out…

I’m officially retired

“I’m officially retired,” Garcia said in his final tweet on Wednesday night.
Garcia also teased dropping a “meme coin,” which is something that was mentioned in the replies of some of the posts.
If it is the end of Garcia’s boxing career, he would retire at the age of 25, and with a pro record of 25-1 (20 KOs). Garcia’s lone loss came in April 2023 when he was stopped in the seventh round by Gervonta Davis.
