Ryan Garcia's ceiling outside of the ring is arguably as high as the one inside of it. SportsPro has released its rankings for "The World's 50 Most Marketable Athletes" and the 22-year-old undefeated rising star Garcia tops the list for the sport of boxing, coming in at No. 12 overall.

Ryan Garcia can definitely touch the hearts of the new age, metrosexual male.

Good luck to’em.

Looks like hes more involved with the stardom that comes with the sport rather then dedicating himself soley to his craft, esp this early in his career.

Hes a young Mexican American with that boyband member look that girls like, so yeah, skys the limit if he can actually deliver in the ring.

Remember when the primary criteria for being a marketable athlete was actually accomplishing something in your sport and not being a social media thirst bucket that caters to weirdo groupie males?

Marketing outside actual fights however does seem more important in this day and age. social media etc. Smart move by the kid.

Garcias main problem is that hes a bum.
Just waiting to be knocked out.

He's actually a pretty talented fighter but I get the feeling that that has little to do with why he's on this list.

Is he though?

What the hell is all that crap? I thought Garcia was a boxer not a actor who looks to be auditioning for the supporting roll in Broke back mountain 2.

Nothing to do with sport.
