I feel for Ryan right now. I've head bouts of depression. That ****'s the worst. I've been punched and kicked everywhere, attacked with weapons, had surgeries, accidents, injuries, but nothing was worse than going through depression. I do hope he gets the help he needs, and I gotta wonder if social media is doing it to this next generation of kids these days. I feel bad for this latest generation where it's all about likes, views, and all that ****. Can't be good for your mental health. Kids can't be kids anymore, when we were growing up there was no pressure like that. Hope he can find a good doctor, get the psychotherapy he needs, and make a 100% recovery.Comment

As someone who suffers from severe PTSD, I know how horrible, exhausting, and corrosive severe anxiety can be.
It is non-curable - it can only be managed, and every person responds differently to a wide range of solutions.
If he is going into rehab to focus on his inner health and well-being then I wish him well.
However, I'm concerned that retreating from activity is possibly not a great idea. Usually, OCD/anxiety/depression and drug use go hand in hand, so isolating himself and dropping his commitments isn't great, if that is what he is doing.
I hope he continues to work out in the gym, maybe just to stay in shape until he gets his anxiety to a manageable level. Most people need to make room in their life for an illness which means finding that sweet spot between responsibility and downtime.
Too much of either is a trigger.
I wish him well, and hope he can find a way back into the ring as he is an exciting young talent. However, he may need to hang 'em up for his health.Comment

Fair response, he could have just called him a coward. Honestly, it's what I would have done.
Still, if I was him I'd be sending the fight contract along to my lawyer to take a look at, see if there's a breach. In fact, that might be why he's being so civil, perhaps he signed some agreement where he got a payoff in return for not saying anything that might bruise Garcia's pride.Comment
. He is acting like is a DIVA most fighters just get on with it and beat up your opponent.
