There! Now, it’s all in the open! Not even a day has passed since Ryan Garcia tested positive for a banned substance before and during the Devin Haney fight and the Victorville native has confessed to his crime. However, there’s a tiny, little, miniscule really, caveat to the confession! Bet, nobody would have seen this one coming. 

Right after the update started taking over every nook and cranny of the internet, ‘The Flash’ Garcia hopped on social media to vehemently deny his involvement with any performance-enhancing drugs. However, the wave of criticism and allegations thrown against him, in such a short span, seems to have convinced the 25-year-old puncher about coming out clean.

Initially, the Los Angeles resident tried to make a case for himself, saying, “Why in the world would I volunteer for a drug test if I planned on taking drugs? Make it make sense???” However, Ryan Garcia soon realized there’s no running away from this situation. So, he did something no one, absolutely no one, would have guessed he would do.

Garcia wrote in a following tweet, “IM ON THE JESUS STEROID.” If it wasn’t clear enough, it’s yet another Garcia’s attempt at trolling his critics, who are convinced there’s no way Ryan Garcia could have defeated Haney without performance-enhancing drugs. The same becomes even clearer with this tweet Garcia wrote, “Diddy paid for the drug test Allegedly.”

Here’s another example, “If I took the steroids then I’m forsure GAY.” Meanwhile, Garcia did turn serious for a second when he tweeted this, “Nah I ain’t going to rematch him. I beat him easy, fair and square. I’d be damned if I rematch him.” What’s more, ‘King Ry’ has spoken about the situation further.

After the allegations came to light, Garcia shared another clip of himself speaking about the situation. ‘King Ry’ brought up Victor Conte, the owner of the lab conducting the tests, while highlighting previous allegations against him.

“I have heard that Devin Haney, he is connected to Victor Conte who is connected to VADA really close. Victor Conte was known to get caught for cheating. He got banned from baseball or whatever sport you are looking at…,” said Garcia. He then revealed the only way he could have been cheating. Garcia stated, “I don’t even know what ostarine is… I was on tequila. If tequila got steroids, that’s crazy bro. I’m guilty.”

Even amid this serious allegation, Ryan Garcia seems un-bothered with what people in the community are saying about him. It could potentially mean he is innocent or Garcia saw this coming from a mile away! Only time will tell, which one is true. Do you think ‘King Ry’ is guilty?
