Following the celebrations, Ryan Garcia took to the stage and delivered a speech for all his well-wishers.

He said, “Just wanna thank everybody for supporting me. Thank my family, thank my whole team, Eddy, my big bro Canelo, my dad,  everybody that has been there since day 1.

“This was a big moment for my career and a moment that was needed. And I think, from now on, the sky’s gonna be the limit and I thank everybody.”
