  • Ouch. Wasnt confident in his natural abilities? This should be interesting.

  • He ate Mexican meat!

    He loves and is proud of his Mexican customs and traditions.

    If you question it….you’re a RACIST,

      • He was always an American of Mexican decent. Did mexico adopt him? If so, contradictions. I’ve been trying to get adopted by some sort of royalty for years.

      • Yes. Moved from the coffee business to the sandwich business.

  • THEY hate Garcia because he knows too much, like about Bohemian Grove and he’s not afraid to talk about it. Now they are trying to set him up. Everything in Las Vegas is crooked, most certainly including Doc Goodman’s VADA.

    • Their crooked referee and judge tricks didn’t work, but they’re still trying.

      • Many feel the same way. This fight generated a lot of money for everyone, except Vegas and the sanctioning bodies. Like you said and everyone saw with their eyes, the judge and the ref were highly suspicious. If this would have come out last week, it would have a different feel.

      • I remember when Doc Margaret Goodman and her Mafia Vegas VADA set up Povetkin, when Povetkin was still in his peak years, in order to protect their cash cow Wilder. They suddenly declared a perfectly legal and harmless vitamin that was sold in stores that they found out Povetkin was taking, and so they abruptly declared it illegal. Wilder knew about the whole scheme in advance. He never even went to Europe to prepare for the fight. Wilder had “deep pocket handlers” as “King Kong” Ortiz said after he was cheated out of a victory in his first fight against Wilder, and VADA is part of the whole Mafia Las Vegas organized crime racket. Look up doctor reviews and see what patients say about VADA’s Dr. Goodman.

        • Wilder was never close to being a “cash cow”… your whole post is stupefying… was Ortiz again cheated in his second KO loss to Wilder?

      • Why VADA test on the day of the weigh end and day of the fight? VADA is great at finding something nobody has ever heard of. Its a little too late by then. What are they going to do? Cancel the fight on fight night? Or just smear him after it’s all over.

    • You guys been fooled. All that conspiracy stuff is all over YouTube. He dont know anything but what we all been seeing on YT. He’s just went that direction on social media to get more attention.
      Any fighter could have done the same and pretend to know who killed Kennedy. Obviously, he would be dead or on the run like Snowden if he knew too much.

  • Didn’t make weight and now this. Not the way I wanted to see him win (and to shut up Haney and his father). Nothing I like less than a cheater.

    • Exactly! Missing weight by over 3lbs was enough to stop fawning over his performance. This is just the icing on the cake. And honestly, who is Haney? He barely beat JoJo, definitely got schooled by Loma, and they are jr lightweights. He beat Kambosos, who is in reality, a glorified club fighter. George lost 9/12 rounds to Maxi Hughes. All facts. I miss the 80s and 90s.

      • Kambosos beat Teofimo Lopez who legit beat Loma. Haney beat him twice. You may not like Haney but he was solid. “Barely beat” is still winning.

        • Loma got robbed against Haney
          Also one thing is beat kambosos and another thing is beat teofimo

  • And of course he denies it. Should change the result to no contest.

    • hey not only does the W stay but maybe next time wait until the final results are presented before you ask for the hanging

  • Very disappointing. Not many things worse than a lying cheating athlete. Especially in combat sports where someone’s life is at stake. 2 year minimum suspension is the least that he should get.

  • These substances have nothing to do with the victory
    He tried to build muscle in a faster way because building muscle make you better boxer eventualy/indirectly
    But still he should be penalized for undisciplined

    Even if he had won the championship he was going to be a rematch

    I hope there is a rematch soon
    I pick Ryan by ko in 6

  • Can’t say I’m all that surprised. There was even a comment someone made here on this site questioning whether Garcia would pass his VADA test, which was prescient as all hell. The result should be changed to a no contest and Garcia should have his license suspended across the board for no less than a year. Oh wait a minute, that will never happen because this is boxing, Garcia is a huge box office draw, and money is all that matters in boxing.

  • Alycia Baumgardner had also tested positive for a banned substance, but was eventually cleared. Perhaps it’s the same for Ryan?

    Also, if the result is changed to a No Contest, can the Las Vegas bookies demand their money back from those who bet on Ryan?

    • Have you ever read the casino rules??? They won’t refund your money but keep dreaming
      I won $700 and I didn’t gamble more because Ryan didn’t make the weight. Otherwise, I had won more money.

    • Yes she did. I’m not up to date with androgen receptors. My knowledge has been outdated by at least 8-10 years. If there are PEDs that keep you clean throughout camp and give you a dirty sample on fight night, it’s news to me.

    • The gambling rules are the decision given in the ring most of the time. I bet Jose Luis Lopez +450 vs Ike Quartey. They read the decision was Quartey by majority decision but they later found out that one judge couldn’t add to 14 and they changed it to a draw. I should have gotten a refund but because they declared Ike the winner in the ring, I got oogatz.

  • The TRUTH IS OUT—WELL WELL-any surprise here??-The kid looked zonked on drugs and now we know why!!
    By the way MUNGUIA NEEDS TESTING TOO!!
    SAME STABLEE!!?-YEP

    • They won’t worry about testing for this fight because it’s a Canelo fight. Speaking of, he’s a great example. When he was busted for cheating for the GGG fight, it was during a surprise test DURING training camp, where the bust usually happens. We suspected him for years and no one was surprised.

    • exactly the truth is out now you want to edit your post or just look like a dumb dumb fanboy???

  • I hope Garcia is cleared, I’m beginning to like this obnoxious little prick. He’s kinda funny. I don’t know if a rematch with Haney is in the works, but I would love to see a showdown with Garcia and Boots Ennis. Haney-Garcia was a box-office dream and social media super event, but Garcia-Boots would be a fight fans bonanza! Boots probably can’t sell a fight like Garcia and Team Haney, but can you imagine the fireworks?

    • Most people don’t no sh_t about boxing, that includes U!

      • Haha! I love these guys that come on here trying to tell people they don’t know shit about boxing. It’s ok. We’re grown folks here. You can spell the word shit! What makes you such an expert? Have you been in the ring? Have you been around boxing your entire life? Or do you just scroll the internet and watch boxing on TV and that qualifies you as a boxing authority?

  • Pretty disappointing if true, I like Kingry for dropping Haney on his ass.

  • Test on the day of weigh in and after fight takes days after testing at lab. So the result won’t be in before fight. What ignorant comments from Garcia.

  • Hmmm. Not sure about this one. Garcia did rub just a out everyone the wrong way and millions upon millions were lost, including the WBC sanctioning fees because he came in overweight. He trolled throughout the entire camp and spoke about some very controversial topics.

    How did he test clean for drugs, PEDs and the psychological testing before the fight and come back dirty the day of? To enjoy the benefits of PEDs, you need to be off for at least 3-4 weeks before fight night.

    If he did in fact use PEDs for this fight, it’s yet another black eye on our sport that is already hurting bad. It’s fraud and it’s dangerous. I’ve always spoken out against the use of PEDs.

    I’m not 100% sure that he did not didn’t, so I’m going to wait this one out.

    • not always true, it depends on the drug and sport. when i used to compete, guys would take testosterone suspension-straight test no carriers, the morning of the competition with a strong oral like halotestin. those things work within hours. other drugs need time to work to build up in your body but there are some that work immediately. we not even talking about the euphoric and placebo effects.

  • 1. Ryan’s lack of focus throughout training camp.
    2. His inabilities in-ring during said fight was telling. 3. Now there are positive VADA test results. No boxer can lack focus on a high risk fight, as Ryan did and gets away. The PED stains like no other for athletes, but for a Pugilist. It’s a lot more deplorable. Behaving irresponsibly, embarrassing Boxiana and disrespecting the paying public — got him here. More than PED’s.

  • remember everybody “allegedly tested positive” damn the excuses for an ass whoopin come ot of nowhere regardless Haney still blocked those hooks with his jaw if hes guilty than ban him but too much involved to make a NC there are way too many fights in the past that should have been declared NC per the universal boxing rules yet money trumps rules

  • So every comment criticizing Garcia testing positive are met with multiple thumbs downs. This site is either flooded with bots or completely idiotic fake boxing fans

  • I have no additional comments until this allegation has been fully explored and resolved.

  • Boxing has really turned into a sh-t show with all these fighters testing positive for PED’s. I know this is nothing new but it just seems to be more rampant than ever. For all I didn’t care for Floyd Mayweather’s antics outside the ring, I’ll always respect his exceptional skill in the ring and the fact he remained a clean fighter. As he used to say to Pacquiao in the years leading up to their fight, “if you think you’re the best, take the test.”

  • It doesn’t surprise me that Garcia cheated for his fight against Haney. He comes in overweight, likely outweighed Haney by at least 10 lbs, and used PEDs too. Just disgusting. He then lies about it. He even bet on himself to win, knowing that he had taken PEDs and was going to come in overweight. He needs to be stripped of that win, banned from the sport for a number of years, and sued for the money he unjustly made. De La Hoya has to be somewhat responsible as well.

    Haney should be allowed to keep his purse, and that loss should be erased from his record. He continues on as champion. I don’t care if I ever see Garcia in the ring again, and outside of the ring, he represents nothing I care about.

  • I am waiting for the B-sample before commenting. He could be cleared if that comes back clean, if it isn’t…book him.

  • Boxing should go back to same day weigh-ins. Both Haney and Garcia weighed the same as Marvin Hagler on fight night. Just imagine what Hagler would’ve done to either one!

    • What does that have to do with the price of tea in China, what they weight is on fight day.

    • exactly but both of them are weighing at more like Canelo weight closer to 168

  • Lucien Bute tested positive for Ostarine ahead of his majority draw with Badou Jack in April 2016. Amir Khan tested positive for the drug ahead of his TKO loss to Kell Brook in February 2022. Apparently Ryan broke the curse and actually pulled off a victory on this stuff he was allegedly on.

    • didnt Fernando Vargas get popped with some steroid and still get KOd by Oscar lmao

  • Over the weight limit and on PED’s. If that’s true, shame on him.

  • I believe him.. he is the face of boxing right now and its good for our sport.. why you want to bring him down? The guy is movie star material.. I’m sorry there are no other boxers that can even compare with his looks.. and as for MR RYAN and Role Model responsibities. Ryan you need to start to think about the kids now.. its not about you anymore,, You made it! dont be so prideful.. with great power comes deep responsibilty..

  • All boxers can fail a PED test

    PED tests exist to Blackmail boxers

  • Well I Guess he’s not the face of Boxing anymore, take the Win away, and Order a rematch, and make him drug test weekly leading up to the fight, then we’ll see if he’s willing to rematch under these conditions!

  • Ryan should be arrested for assault and battery.
    This twerp really screwed it up!!

  • That sucks, WillisLV. I remember that fight and thought Quartey was a clear winner despite being floored twice.

  • I remember Mayweather coming out of 2 years retirement and jail and was 2 pounds more than the Mexican who wanted the match, he was within the division limit, yet i xan bet the same people who are supporting garcia here were the same who was crucifying Mayweather. Garcia was 3 pounds over the weight and doped, and they are looking for excuses, Canelo, Vasquez, that female M exican and “plaster hands” are all cheaters. These People should have been banned for life along with the likes of Miller,whyte, the 2 Furys and Saunders. I am beginning to think the sport should be banned as well, I have been involved with this game since 1960, the Patterson-Johannson second fight. But it has become dirtier for every year.

  • Ostarine is a type of drug called a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM). It’s not approved by the FDA, but is sometimes found in supplements.

    • the problem is the same labs that make ostarine are the some ones that make some popular supplements. they can cross contaminate. if he is telling the truth that he didn’t knowingly take anything then it was a tainted supplement.

  • Ryan got caught in a lie. On one of his social media posting he said he doesn’t know what Ostraine is then proceeds to say he would have made weight if he wasn’t on it because it makes you lose weight. CAUGHT RED HANDED

  • Garcia is a pos to the max. Peds or not, he still came in overweight and still thinks his win is not tainted….fukc Garcia

  • I Like how the Dude trying to look like Eazy E in the background has no relevance being in the video, but there he is.

  • Wonder if he is going to blame this test result on the criminal sex ring he was supposedly going to expose. Maybe he made that ring up in case he tested positive.

  • Don’t tell me a Trump supporter cheated. He deserves everything they do to him based on that alone.

  • Its because he endorsed Donald Trump, these globalists, and the boxing world is riddled with them will do anything to stop the MAGA movement. Tainting a sample is nothing to them.

    • This is their modus operandi. Enough of their victims have spoken out, and been oppressed for doing so. People need it to happen to them before they believe it. They don’t fathom that it has already happened to us all, by redistribution of the world’s wealth away from the masses to the cabal and it’s constituents and it’s machine.

  • Ryan Garcia spoke against the corrupt entertainment industry. Suddenly he is alleged to have used PEDs. Tested by a agency within the entertainment industry which Ryan Garcia spoke out against. That is precisely what the tyrants have been accused of doing, in collusion with their cohorts in the media, news, social media. Their tentacles are everywhere. Doubt the Haney family had anything to do with it, but they won’t mind prospering from the evil. This is the cabal. Kingry did not need to use any of that. He came in 2.5 pounds over and he knew he would. He already fought Haney 6 times and was in no need of enhancements. He already told the world in an interview that although Haney had won a few matches against him, that Haney took the worse damage in every match. Ryan didn’t need to cut weight, nor increase size and power.

  • Who is “the people trying to get him” and how would “the people” be able to get any kind of drug screen from you an then the results?
    And doesn’t it seem like a big deal to say someone is dirty for drugs in a fight like this if they weren’t positive?
    And how in the hell does someone get 10 days to take another drug screen, when typically most drugs are water soluble and out of a person’s system in 72 hours?
