Even when faced with extraordinary adversity, Ryan Garcia isn’t slowing down his social media shenanigans. What did the Victorville native do this time? Well, as he awaits the analysis of his B-Sample due on May 22, ‘The Flash’ Garcia has managed to rope in Errol Spence Jr. or, more accurately, his girlfriend on social media. 

See, the thing is, after defeating Devin Haney last month, Garcia contemplated moving up in weight to potentially fight ‘The Truth.’ Later, his trainer Derrick James filed a lawsuit against Spence for unpaid dues, which Garcia seems to have taken personally! Since then, the duo have also exchanged words of derogation on X. Now, Ryan Garcia seems to have taken things to the next level by roping in Spence’s girlfriend. However, Shakur Stevenson isn’t having any of it as he promptly jumped in to expose Garcia’s lies.

In a not so surprising move, Garcia said in his Instagram live, “Errol Spence Jr., his girl’s in my DM… That’s messed up, that’s f**ked up… I am sorry bro, your girl’s in my DM…” Quick note: This wasn’t even the first time Garcia took a dig at Spence today. After an especially spicy exchange on X, ‘King Ry’ took shots at Spence and his girlfriend. 

“HHHH JUMP SCARE SORRY GUYS AND GIRLS CLOSE YOUR EYES A MONSTER THIS UGLY@GUY CALLED ME OUT FOR A SQUABBLE SAY LESS @errolspencejr CONTRACT TIME p.S. your girl in my DMs OOPS,” wrote Garcia alongside posting an unfavorable picture of Spence. Seeing this unfold on social media, Shakur Stevenson jumped head first in the conversation.

Even though Ryan Garcia is reeling from a pretty serious situation, the star boxer seems to be on the lookout for his next victim. However, Spence doesn’t seem interested in taking their beef inside the ring! Would you be down for Garcia vs. Spence?
