Comments Thread For: Ryan Garcia 'signs' to fight Mario Barrios on February 21

Boxing fans need to decolonise their mind of the sanctioning body language. Start just referring to the TBRB rankings, instead of all this "muh WBC", "muh interim", "muh unified", etc.

When will this fat, corrupt POS Mauricio be investigated by the FBI and banned from the US?

I've always wondered how much Mauricio & co. pay fighters to IMMEDIATELY put on the WBC t-shirt and/or hat (sometimes putting the WBC belt in the middle if the winner has multiple belts) as soon as they're announced the winner. I find the whole process cheezy and embarrassing.

PacMan can beat both without a doubt!

All roads go to Barrios.

One lucky fighter that he had a promotional backing and has gotten so many high purse fights. Good for him, he is a good guy but an average fighter.

With that said if Garcia thinks he is just going to walk through Barrios they better get ready. He is good enough if you don't come with you A game he might out hustle you

I was thinking the same, doesn't matter if he ends up with another draw or something happens early in the fight and it ends in a NC as long as he doesn't lose that trinket he'll have some opportunities. Maybe they'll name Floyd champion emeritis and Mario will get another payday.

Agreed it’s shameful and disgusting and the old man Sulaiman would never be doing what this shameless pig does, sad….

How in the hell does Ryan Garcia's inferior skilled azz wind up fighting for a title on the back of a dominating loss to a guy he was supposed to beat? They're determined to make this fraud a champion or rather trinket holder if it kills them. There are half a dozen guys around him that would beat him. This is why I'm actually behind the league they're talking about. Taking an L should put you at the back of the line not fighting for a title. Ridiculous.

Would be hilarious if Ryan got the Rolly Romero treatment from Mario Barrios who could had easily lost to 46 year old Manny Pacquiao.

Seriously though how did Ryan get another title shot, after coming off a loss after a time of inactivity from getting banned from a fight he tested positive?

I didn't follow boxing as closely when Mauricio's dad ran things, so I can't speak on that. Can't imagine it was worse, though.

Barrio... Out hustle??? Highly unlikely
