Professional boxer Ryan Garcia has been beefing with anyone and everyone as of late. From professional boxers to movie stars, the 24-1 boxer seems to be in a mood for carnage. And among those people is the UFC bantamweight champion, “Suga” Sean O’Malley.

Garcia, during a recent interview with Ariel Helwani, revealed that he wanted to fight “Suga” in MMA at the UFC. However, a retired UFC middleweight champion did not seem to think the fight was possible.

Ryan Garcia stated during the interview that he had reached out to Dana White and the UFC to try to make the fight against their bantamweight champion. However, they sadly didn’t get a response from the UFC or Dana White. Former UFC champion Michael Bisping, in a recent YouTube video on his channel, took this matter up for discussion.

Bisping, in his YouTube video, stated, “Surprisingly, no response. Okay? Sean O’Malley is the UFC bantamweight champion of the world. He’s fighting in two weeks. He’s got a huge fight against Marlon ‘Chito’ Vera, trying to avenge the only loss on his record. Okay. I don’t think the UFC are out there right now trying to do Garcia versus O’Malley.”

However, Bisping didn’t dismiss the fact that the fight would generate massive PPV buys, considering how big both fighters are in their respective sports. However, he claimed that given Garcia is a boxer in his prime, doing massive PPV numbers would alone be enough to stop the fight from ever happening, because of how all the contract negotiations and politics would find themselves to be annoyingly complicated. But that being said, how did Garcia call O’Malley out to fight in UFC?

Ryan Garcia makes bold claims to beat UFC bantamweight champ in MMA

On a recent episode of “The MMA Hour” with Ariel Helwani, the 25-year-old pro boxer, Ryan Garcia made a pretty insane callout towards the UFC bantamweight champion, Sean O’Malley. Garcia didn’t just call “Suga” out, but also made an outrageous prediction as to how the fight would play out.

In the interview, Garcia said, “I’ll beat his a** in MMA. Guaranteed. I’m a natural wrestler. I just beat my security that’s a wrestler, I beat him! I’m strong and I got crazy conditioning… I know I’m going to knock him out in boxing, that’s not even fair. What is fair is to test myself in MMA. I would destroy Sean O’Malley.”
