WBC Silver lightweight champion Ryan Garcia took to social media and continued his highly publicized feud with YouTuber Jake Paul. The two high-profile figures have no love lost for each other and use social media to throw verbal barbs. What’s more, they’re both tracking towards different spheres professionally. However, they continue to lock horns.

Ryan Garcia is no stranger to making enemies outside the sport of boxing, and he enjoys the back-and-forth banter.

Garcia’s not afraid to tussle with anyone and with his YouTube channel kicking off, Jake Paul was an obvious target.
