Boxing star “King” Ryan Garcia and Japanese kickboxer Rukiya Anpo will go face-to-face at a press conference in Beverly Hills next week to preview their special exhibition showdown taking place Monday, December 30, in Tokyo, Japan. The PPV will be $49.99 and the bout will be an eight-round affair with two-minute rounds.
Garcia has vowed to knock out Anpo, citing Anpo’s exhibition with Manny Pacquiao. Kingry is currently serving a one-year suspension from the New York State Athletic Commission due to a positive drug test in April, but that ban does not stop Ryan from participating in exhibitions outside of the U.S.
I still smile every time I remember how he beat the kr@p out of Haney.
Every now and they i like to watch the highlights of that fight..SPECIALLY THE KNOCK DOWNS. THEY WERE BRUTAL. HANEY SR STILL CRYING ABOUT IT. lol
Good sign on name. I like Garcia but am sick of all these boxing and tv gangsters rip off exhibition events. Boxing once was free on tv – Gillette (before they went “me too” woke) Cavalcade of Sports, Friday Night Fight of the Week…
$49.99 for this? Anyone who pays this needs to have his or her head examined.
Exactly.
I’m wondering as well all the time who tf pays so much money for Floyd going in the ring with a Japanese schoolboy, or Fury vs Nganou, Youtubers vs former champions, MMA fighters vs ex champions etc….are these people not interested in boxing?
Probably the same people who will pay to see Ryan fight a kickboxer.
Anyone who payed for the Paul Tyson fight or any Mayweather Pacquiao exhibition fights are mentally ill or I’m just going to say it are very stupid
Dave facts, and its real money, not just a nickel and dime smh
It’s a part of an RIZIN MMA card, they do MMA shows every year on the New Year and usually on PPV, this just adds to the card. Garcia’s opponent is a big star in Japan so I’m sure this fight will sell and MMA fans will probably buy the PPV for the MMA fights anyway.
“The PPV will be $49.99”
– Sign me up !!!!!!
– Not even going to watch for free on the Fire Stick………….
firestick is old news and a rip off ,free stream the way to go.
What’s your method for finding free streams? It’s usually a bit of a hassle. Maybe u know a better way. I don’t like to give the boxing and tv gangsters one penny.
You really think he’s gonna give you his methods on an open discussion? Find your own.
This is along the lines of a Jake Paul fighting the usual retired MMA guys. The only reason his last fight did as well as it did was because of Tyson. Garcia is similar to Jake Paul and plays to the you tube crowd. Not watching even for free.
Ditto.
You’re wrong, it was for the Serrano vs Taylor fight.
Kambosos just signed with Matchroom and announced he’s moving up to 140. I’m thinking if
he had trouble with Maxie Hughes and lost to Haney twice what difference does it make? No, he
can’t fight Ryan, since Garcia said he can’t make 140 any more. I’m thinking George should rematch Teofimo even though Teofimo prolly beats him like
a drum in a rematch. Ryan and Teo at 147 would be
huge. Teofimo just joined Team Canelo and will be
trained by Eddie Reynoso. 2025 should be a great year for boxing as long as we avoid nuclear war &
WW3.
You got that right, blunderbuss! Putting trump in an even more difficult position. That’s by design. Teo is being trained by reynoso? Wonder if he starts testing positive soon too. Seeing how all of his fighters have had some dirty tests. That includes Garcia now. Hmmm!
I’m not mad at the hustle but I still can’t believe people pay for this.
No interest in Garcia, both in and out of the ring. Can’t stand the ignorance, immaturity, and staggering shallowness of him and the absurdity he represents. He failed his two biggest tests in the ring. First, he was annihilated by Davis after being overhyped. Then he fought a very beatable, overrated Haney, overweight and juiced. He’s nothing more than a pretty boy joke and media darling, not a serious fighter. He shames the history and dignity of the sport.
Good way to stay busy.
