In the stellar active lightweight roster, WBC silver champion Ryan Garcia might be the most popular figure. There are several other A-listers in Gervonta Davis, Teofimo Lopez, and Devin Haney, but Ryan Garcia boasts an alluring charisma that goes beyond the boxing ring.

He is also a social media star who grabs huge attention with his internet stunts. But his prime identity still lies in being an unbeaten young lightweight elite, and Garcia vows to retain it throughout his career.

That said, he has been ridiculed umpteen times by his contemporaries. Starting from Lopez to Davis, the lightweight title holders appear confident about vanquishing Ryan Garcia. However, it’s easier said than done. ‘KingRy’ is not just an unbeaten champion but also a knockout specialist.

While the analysts continue to demean the Mexican prodigy, Garcia knows where he belongs. He connected with Fight Hype.com to talk about his present scenario.

‘KingRy’ said, “I mean, that’s just how it is. I put myself in a great position to be where I am at. They made fun of me a lot and they try to bash my social media. They try to do whatever they could do to tamper my name but like I said, the truth always prevails.”

He added, “I was the smarter man when it comes to marketing and I am gonna be the smarter man in the ring. All that hate, all that bitterness is gonna be the thing that backfires on all of them.”

Ryan Garcia has a response to his haters

Garcia will fight for the WBC Interim lightweight strap against Luke Campbell on January 2; an opportunity that can bag him a fight against Devin Haney.

However, Garcia’s radar expands more than that. He wants to fight all the lightweight champions and wants to knock them out. His prime target is the unified champion Teofimo Lopez.

Speaking on it, Garcia said, “I see Teofimo Lopez, I see all of them hating. They are all hating and look at that, hate is going to disguise itself and it’s going to blind them. They are going to run not one of my shots and they are going to be knocked out. Every single one of them.”

For the time being, he will have to focus on ‘Cool Hand’ Campbell. If Garcia wins the fight, it will advance him into the bigger title picture. It is no surprise, the lightweight division is already on fire.
