No you won't, this is a highly toxic relationship.

[just the facts]

I’m not a fan of Garcia or Oscar (as a promoter) but I can’t think of even one fighter throughout history that’s made as much $$$ as Garcia has yet has deserved it less than Ryan has. Oscar has done something right. GBP is a sinking ship though.

Ryan was the first boxer to realize social media potential. He’s a self promoted fighter, GBP has done very little with his commercial success.

Golden Boy knows and insists there is much more money to be made with Garcia
Not to hard to understand especially after making 30 million ans still not having any kind of credibility

Are you serious? Who do you think bought Ryan all his Instagram followers?

Bought!? Lmaoooo. Let me educate on purchase Vs organic social media growth. Purchase followers are just that, followers that “follow you” but nothing else; no interaction at all. Meanwhile organic growth are those who really follow you and all your move. That 1.3mil PPV buy Vs tank weren’t “purchased” followers. Those were legit people with actual money.

His promoter for many years to come? Lupe Valencia is not going to like hearing that.

GBP is absolutely a sinking ship:

1. Garcia lost via quit job in his only real test and lost substantial earning power along the way and it looks like he’s leaving anyway.
2. Ramirez lost badly to Bivol and isn’t a big draw anyway.
3. Mungia has been kept away from quality opposition for years (must be a reason for that) and isn’t much of a draw either.
4. Ortiz looks good but has some SERIOUS health issues and who knows how that will turn out.
5. the rest of the GBP roster are prospects at best and IF they pan out will still take years to develop.
6. GBP is circling the drain.
