Eight hours after vowing to refrain from posting non-boxing social media posts amid concerns for his mental health, Ryan Garcia returned to X on Wednesday night to address a variety of boxing-related questions.
‘Like I said, I’ll only talk about boxing, let’s see who really listens!’ García, 25, wrote in X. ‘Ask me any QUESTIONS about ‘Boxing’? On the plane back to go train with Derrick (James) in Dallas. So why not do a Q&A about boxing and sports?
The super lightweight contender said he would “finish” cruiserweight Jake Paul “really bad” if the two ever fought in a catchweight bout and predicted Anthony Joshua will beat the MMA legend when the two meet in a heavyweight boxing match on Friday in Riyadh. Saudi Arabia.
On their own, García’s publications were not very striking. But they represent a dramatic change in tone for someone who had spent the previous few days on social media making a variety of wild claims, from being raped when she was two to her accusation that Elon Musk is the antichrist. In a video, Garcia claimed that he was dead after his ‘throat was cut’.
Garcia is currently scheduled to face WBC super lightweight champion Haney in Brooklyn on April 20, but concerned fans and boxing insiders are calling for the fight to be postponed due to his recent behavior.

Boxing fans have been calling for Garcia’s fight against Haney to be canceled amid his worrying social media activity, with Dailymail.com reaching out to both the WBC, the governing body sanctioning the fight, and Golden Boy Promotions to request comments.
However, in a recent post on X, Garcia insisted that he will no longer discuss any non-boxing related topics until the fight is over.
‘I, Ryan Garcia, will not speak, tweet or write anything other than My Fight ”Boxing” and Sports. All topics of discussion will be discussed after my fight,” he wrote.
‘5 weeks of concentration. You have my word that I’m locked up. I’ll see you in 4 to 20 minutes.

García claims that boxing taught him that he can heal ‘from anything’
Garcia has previously spoken candidly about his struggles with mental health, admitting to having suicidal thoughts during a recent break from boxing.
After returning in 2022, he suffered his first professional loss last year in a knockout loss against bitter rival Gervonta Davis.
Garcia initially suggested his phone had been hacked after the cryptic video claiming he was dead surfaced on Sunday, which also included several satanic references, taking to social media himself 24 hours later to explain the situation.
However, on Tuesday he returned to X to make a series of disturbing and distressing accusations.
During his latest rant on Wednesday, he labeled Musk the ‘Antichrist’ in the since-deleted post.
Garcia even took aim at X boss Elon Musk in a now-deleted post on the platform.
After posting about taking a live drug test to prove his well-being and making more satanic references, Garcia wrote, “I have been raped at 2 years old, how would you act?”, before continuing, “by a member of the family”. . How would that feel to you? How would you act?
He added: ‘I’ve seen the worst s**t of my life. I’m tired of being silent.’
When another user quoted her post with laughing emojis, Garcia responded, “It’s funny to people.” I was raped when I was two years old and I have proof and they laugh at what happens to people.’
The 24-1 fighter then appeared to suggest that he had witnessed human trafficking in another series of cryptic but concerning posts.
He said, ‘What would you do if they held you down and made you look? Yes, I’m losing control.’ The shit I’ve seen hurts me for the children.
‘Human trafficking is the largest trade in the world. And I’m suffering for them and I’m the crazy one. Nobody is doing anything.’
‘They held me down and made me look, of course I’ve lost it a bit. They really begged me to join and I was like, ‘F**K YOU.’
‘You are the crazy ones!!! Because I’m not lying, they are hurting the children!!! And everyone stays behind telling me to shut up. I DO NOT CARE ANYMORE. I will die for the kidnapped innocent souls. If you’re not on my side, you’re on the devil’s side.’
Dailymail.com has contacted Garcia’s promotional team, Golden Boy Promotions, for comment.
