    It's the social media thing.

    You know how there are "soundcloud rappers" and "influencers".

    He's literally boxing's first social media "influencer". He'll either be that or boxing's first social media based star.

    He seems somewhat talented. He's not great, a lot of holes in his game but by comparison, he's better than Haney right now. But I question how much of a boxer is he really if his hype gets de-railed.

    Will he really want to box when it's no longer pretty on social media? When he's getting into dog fights, will he be another Victor Ortiz vs Maidana? Or is he an actual boxer?

    I think thats where the hate generates from.

    I don't like him. I feel he's just about likes on social media BUT objectively speaking, he's not all that bad actually.

    He has better technique and fundamentals than Devin Haney and he's the guy coming up alongside him (like a rival of sorts) that is being seen as a "real boxer".

    So it's not all negative with him, objectively speaking. For me, at least.
    That makes sense.
    I might not be on social media. But I have heard the stories of him posting videos and having all sorts of followers.

    I guess with me the thing is I've seen Garcia since his teens. Plus I'm not on social media so I credit him for his Many amateur accomplishments and his development as a Pro.

    And I will go on record here on NSB ... Ryan Garcia is the Real deal !

      I'm with you guys. I like how he's growing in the ring, but I skip on the bubble gum and candy. He's full of himself, but he needs it. You're only young once.

        Always been a proud Garcia hater and thought he was never the goods and over rated

        But if he chin checks or even beats Linares fairly , I’ll be the first to give the young man his props


        even if Linares is on the Slide and be a age where almost every boxers falls the fu.ck off from where they once where , that’ll be a legit win for Garcia.
