Ryan Garcia isn’t going down easily after Conor McGregor unleashed a rage-filled rant against the 25-year-old American boxer. The tirade comes amid Ryan Garcia testing positive for a banned substance before and after the fight against Devin Haney in Brooklyn on April 20. Garcia, who emerged as a heavy underdog in his fight against Devin Haney, was also three pounds overweight.
While Garcia denied taking the drug, the news didn’t go down well with the boxing community, including Conor McGregor, who ripped into Ryan Garcia for allegedly cheating. In a since-deleted tweet, Mcgregor, who has historically spoken out against performance enhancers of any kind, wasn’t buying Garcia’s vehement denial and even called for his lifetime ban from the sport. Here’s what McGregor said about Garcia.
In the tweet, Conor McGregor warned Garcia never to cross paths with him and compared the situation to that of fighter Sean O’Malley, adding, “I don’t like this, I’ll bust yous both up, do yous want a spar I will set flights right now for you both for a full-on spar each.” O’Malley was hit with a six-month suspension in 2019 after allegedly being tested positive for Ostarine. McGregor was not the only athlete to rip into Garcia. In a tweet, the retired fighter Dillon Danis shared his unfiltered opinion, calling Garcia spineless for allegedly taking performance enhancers drugs.
