Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Ryan Garcia is preventing WBC Tremendous Light-weight Champion Devin Haney in a 12-round title bout this Sat. night time (April 20, 2024) at Barclays Middle in Brooklyn, New York. Somebody ought to in all probability inform “King Ryan” of his upcoming scrap, nevertheless, as a result of he’s appearing quite unhinged.
Garcia simply doesn’t have the air of an expert boxer able to compete in opposition to the perfect on the planet. For weeks now, he’s been saying and doing odd and regarding issues. Randomly confessing to often smoking marijuana is a relative non-issue, however these near him have expressed critical concern for his psychological well being. Individuals thought Garcia was useless, and the Nevada State Athletic Fee requested a psychological well being examination.
It’s not the primary time Garcia has handled such points and accusations.
Already this week, Garcia was faraway from a New York Mets baseball recreation, the place he was purported to throw the ceremonial first pitch. If that weren’t bizarre sufficient for battle week antics, Garcia’s uncommon conduct has continued on-line. In a tweet that I’m amazed has been deleted but, Garcia speculated about hypothetically preventing Jon Jones whereas each are excessive on cocaine.

“Okay hypothetically, hear me out,” Garcia wrote. “Jon Jones vs Ryan Garcia. We’re each coked out. WHO WINS????”
Contemplating “Bones” as soon as bragged about beating up Daniel Cormier after a weekend of the white stuff, my wager is on Jon Jones, who certainly doesn’t need his identify additional related to avenue medication. In addition to, Jones is presumably too busy coping with his personal newest authorized points after allegedly assaulting a UFC drug tester.
That’s the peak of the weirdness, however all of Garcia’s social media exercise right now was merely … off. Right here’s another bits and items for context:
