The Ryan Garcia who knocked Devin Haney down three times on April 20, 2024, never made it to Times Square on the night of Friday, May 2, although the show that usually accompanies ‘King Ry’ did, when he was seen arriving at the Ring Magazine-sponsored Riyadh Season show in a ‘Batmobile’.
That’s how the native of Victorville, California, opened the night, while his rival, with a lower profile, although dressed from head to toe like a modern ‘Marty McFly’, did so aboard a traditional New York-style yellow cab.
Devastated! Ryan Garcia cries after losing to Rolando Romero in a shocking upset at Times Square
Romero showed ‘KingRy’ the way
If there’s one thing that’s characterized Ryan Garcia in recent months, it’s his arrogance, his self-sufficiency, his talkativeness and above all, his incontinence on social media, after the suspension for testing positive for ostarine after his fight with Haney more than a year ago. But no, that guy didn’t show up in the ring that was set up in Times Square, and gave way to a version much more in keeping with the circumstances, that of a human being suffering in the face of adversity after being exhibited by his rival Rolly Romero, who now sent him to the canvas.
Many attributed Garcia’s old fighting spirit to the ostarine that was absent on Friday, but Garcia said that the year-long suspension “left him physically and mentally drained,” and there is some truth to that, as his mental health has been a central theme after hundreds or perhaps thousands of cryptic, incomprehensible or delusional posts that did not contribute anything commendable to the conversation and a lot of garbage, a lot of resentment and animosity against Haney and anyone who stood in front of him.
Tears and no arrogance in defeat
Garcia was seen suffering after he got out of the ring and took refuge in a truck backstage, bathed in tears, yes for the defeat, but above all for having to let go of his arrogance in front of the crowd, when recognizing his rival: “He did a good fight, he caught me early. No excuses. He did a great job, and that’s it. I’m happy to have gotten in the ring and fought 12 rounds. I take my hat off to Rolly, he did a great job,” Garcia said.
Today, the only way is up after hitting rock bottom in every sense of the word, and hopefully it will be with greater humility for Garcia, who acknowledged what he has to do: “I just have to start from scratch with my team, we’ll talk about it and see what we do.”

CFL Week 19: PFF Team of the Week, Player Awards
Samuel Emilus, healthy and thriving: Despite missing nine games this season, the Saskatchewan wide receiver has earned a position-best 84.0 PFF grade. Winnipeg HB Deatrick Nichols shuts down Edmonton pass attack: Nichols saw just three targets and allowed one catch for 8 yards on a screen, breaking up the other two. With just two weeks remaining in the CFL regular season, several key races remain unsettled. The Edmonton Elks kept their playoff hopes alive with a critical 25-20 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Meanwhile, the Montreal Alouettes closed the gap in the East Division — their victory, coupled with a Hamilton Tiger-Cats loss, brought them within one game of securing the top spot and a first-round bye. As always, we’re recognizing the league’s top performers from last week in this edition of the CFL Team of the Week. The […]
Steph Curry breaks Bryson DeChambeau’s ankles in viral clip that leaves LeBron James laughing
Steph Curry has made defenders look foolish for more than a decade, but his latest highlight came on a basketball court shared with golfer Bryson DeChambeau. A viral social media video showed the Golden State Warriors superstar putting DeChambeau through the wringer in a lighthearted one-on-one matchup, complete with slick handles, a trademark turnaround jumper, and his signature "night night" celebration.The clip, which quickly spread across sports media platforms, featured Curry at his most entertaining. With a mix of crossovers and hesitation dribbles, he left DeChambeau stumbling before calmly draining a fadeaway three-pointer that drew loud cheers from those in attendance.LeBron James, never one to miss a viral moment, joined the chorus of fans reacting to the performance. The Los Angeles Lakers star couldn't resist commenting under the post, writing, "Night Night!"-a nod to Curry's signature gesture that has become […]

PFF Grades and Data: Key insights for every NFL Week 7 game
Nick Herbig has emerged as a key force: Herbig matched both his season and career high with six pressures in Week 6 against the Browns. Herbig will look to continue that momentum against a Bengals offensive line that has allowed pressure on 37% of dropbacks, the fourth-highest rate in the NFL. With Puka Nacua’s status uncertain, Davante Adams becomes an even more critical piece of the Rams’ passing attack: Adams is tied for the league lead with 32 targets of 10-plus yards downfield, accounting for 328 of his 396 receiving yards and all three of his touchdowns. He may see an advantageous matchup against newly acquired cornerback Greg Newsome, whose 28.9 coverage grade on downfield throws ranks 47th out of 57 qualifying corners. NFL Week 7 is here, and with it comes a fresh wave of advanced data and analysis. […]
