  • It’s crazy but I see cross dressing in Ryan Garcia’s future just like his promoter used to do. I hope I’m wrong because it’s a terrible thing for a man to get involved with that sort of lifestyle but it is what it is I can’t judge I just really hope Ryan can stay away from that sort of thing and just say NO!

    Unfortunately I even see Oscar influencing Garcia which type of fishnets to wear and Garcia will likely listen.

    With that said I wish Garcia the very best.

  • What is the problem with some people not letting go of Oscars side issues. This a boxing website, talking about fights. All I ever see is crossdressing and fish net and coke comments. Let’s have a look at your browser and personal lives. No saints here. He was a great boxer period.

  • A person’s character is larger than boxing! Why is this guy out of his padded room?
