The boxing sensation, Ryan Garcia, has found success both inside and outside the boxing ring pretty quickly. Coming from the era of social media, the young prodigy has a global reach, and has a dedicated fanbase in almost every corner of the world. That said, Garcia prefers to update the fans about his every move.

Following a win over Luke Campbell on January 2, Garcia has grabbed the WBC Interim lightweight belt and appraisals from several boxing pundits. So, it seems to be a celebration for ‘KingRy’ and he has already added some alluring tattoos on his body.

A few weeks back, he donned a new tattoo of a lion on his chest. Now, Ryan Garcia has added a dove and a neck design tattoo as well. In a recent vlog, he boasted all of his tattoos and displayed how he got himself inked.

Garcia bills this as an inspiration behind his powerful shots. Now, he will have two more around his neck. Although getting inked might not be something new, Ryan Garcia and his YouTube channel clearly make it interesting for the fans.
