Ryan Garcia concluded his press conference with this: Tim Bradley, suck my d***! 🙄
#HaneyGarcia
Oscar De La Hoya: If anyone wants to make money, they have to fight Ryan. And he's calling all the shots. #HaneyGarcia
Ryan Garcia said he doesn't think Tank will beat Frank Martin, who is also trained by Derrick James. But if he does, he would welcome a rematch with Tank. Oscar says they would have to do it at a catch weight of 145 pounds. #HaneyGarcia
Ryan Garcia just said he can't make 140 anymore. He is moving up to 147 for his next fight. Says it's physically impossible for his body to get below 143. Garcia weighed in at 143.2 pounds Friday. #HaneyGarcia
Ryan Garcia says he thinks referee Harvey Dock did a 'horrible' job. He can't understand how Dock took a point from him in the 7th round, when Haney held him tightly & Garcia hit him. #HaneyGarcia
Ryan Garcia just said during his press conference that he drank 'every day' in camp. He noted that he's not proud of that, but he did what he needed to do to get through it. #HaneyGarcia
No surprise here, really. But EXTREMELY unlikely Garcia could lose 3 pounds in the time permitted by the New York State Athletic Commission, which would make him ineligible to win the WBC super lightweight title from the heavily favored Haney. #HaneyGarcia
Eddie Hearn is no longer concerned about Ryan Garcia squeezing down to 140 pounds tomorrow afternoon in Brooklyn.
“When he lifted his top up, I actually think he’s gonna make weight,” Hearn told us after the press conference today. “I didn’t yesterday.” #HaneyGarcia
I legitimately lost track of how many alarming things Ryan Garcia said today on stage at Barclays Center. And that was just during the press conference. If this is all a work, as Bill Haney suggested, it's Andy Kaufman-level acting on his part. #HaneyGarcia
When one of Haney's team members mentioned Ryan Garcia's mother, Garcia responded by saying his mom is sliding into his DMs (among other more vulgar things). #HaneyGarcia
Bill Haney just mocked Ryan Garcia by giving him a copy of 'Psychology for Dummies' during their press conference. Garcia immediately threw it off the stage. Haney reminded him that George Kambosos did something similar & that didn't exactly work out well for him. #HaneyGarcia
