Between the beefs, the callouts, and the opponent speculation, Ryan Garcia’s planned July 4th ring return has produced a fair bit of buzz. If he’s to be believed, however, it’s all for naught. “Kingry” claims that the bout “won’t happen most likely” due to “a lot of bulls*** [he’s] not going to get into right now.”
Though it could be standard diva talk, Garcia (20-0, 17 KO) has had his fair share of public spats with his management, which came to a head last year after Garcia turned down an ultra-late-notice fight and Golden Boy chief Oscar De La Hoya claimed that Vergil Ortiz Jr., not Garcia, was their brightest up-and-comer. They kissed and made up in time for Garcia to level Romero Duno and Francisco Fonseca in a round apiece, but who knows what’s going on behind the scenes.
