Flashing fists and… bell bottoms? Ryan Garcia’s training for his mega-fight against Devin Haney has sparked a social media frenzy, but not for his lightning-fast punches. A recent Instagram post showcasing his workout routine went viral, and it wasn’t his technique that had everyone talking.

Garcia, known for his flamboyant style, donned a unique training outfit that has divided fans and prompted a hilarious comment from fellow boxer Shakur Stevenson. With the April 20th lightweight title clash at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center fast approaching, will Garcia trade in his statement pants for a more traditional fight night look?

This is how Ryan Garcia wakes up

In a video posted to his Instagram account, Ryan Garcia offered a glimpse into his training regimen for the highly anticipated fight against Devin Haney. The clip featured Garcia working the reflex bag, showcasing his lightning-fast combinations. However, it was his attire that truly captivated viewers. Garcia sported a white compression shirt, a choice perhaps expected from a boxer in training. But paired with the shirt were beige bell bottom pants, a bold fashion statement that ignited a firestorm of comments.

Garcia captioned the post with a blend of religious affirmations and fight promotion: “This is how I wake up in the morning. This clone can box. Not a clone but I do have JESUS ✝️ @daznboxing get your tickets to my fight you won’t want to miss this I’m bringing the energy as if I was mad into the ring. LOVE JESUS, I LOVE JESUS, I’m STRONG YOU ARE STRONG I LOVE YOU FATHER IN HEAVEN HOLY SPIRIT THANK YOU THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH I LOVE YOU.”
