Ryan Garcia lodged a strong and assertive response when a follower questioned a certain faith-related aspect. The young boxer closed the year on a happy note. In April, he suffered his first career loss to Gervonta Davis. But seven months later, he came back strong, knocking out Oscar Duarte early in December.

He shared the details through his Instagram story as well as through X/Twitter handle. The young Californian, who again tasted success, may want to continue with the momentum. Hence, making his way to the next big fight of his career, he appears to have initiated talks for a bout with another superstar, Devin Haney. If the talks make it through, then fans will have another blockbuster in their hands.

Ryan Garcia counters emphatically

Ryan Garcia extended New Year’s greetings to everyone through his X/Twitter account. He said, “WALK IN THE NEW YEAR WITH GOD AND CONTINUE FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.” A short, ten-second clip shows the young Californian in his boxing regalia and footage from different matches. His voiceover runs in the background: “I want to give glory to the one that’s above all, The King of Kings, Jesus Christ. Thank you for all that you do in my life. I encourage everybody to seek him first, and everything will come.”

However, a user told him to desist from sharing content about God. According to them, genuine believers don’t brag about their faith. “Stop post about God, my friend…true believers never boast about their faith…,” the user said. But Ryan Garcia would have none of it. Taking a verse from the Corinthians, he said, “Translation (NLT): 2 Corinthians 10:17. As the scriptures say,” If you want to boast, boast only about the Lord.”

Those who closely follow ‘KingRy’ will be familiar with the big cross tattoo right in the middle of his chest. Then, on his right shoulder, he boasts a dove. Talking about the symbolism behind the tattoo, he shared that it represents the guiding presence of the ‘Holy Spirit’ in his life. Inside the arena, the walk-out song he prefers the most remains Hillsong United’s ‘Oceans.’

On numerous occasions, Ryan Garcia has openly discussed his faith in Jesus Christ and delved into his most profound religious reflections. Last year, as Logan Paul hosted him on his popular podcast ‘Impaulsive,’ ‘KingRy’ shared in detail about his beliefs. He said, “As I’ve grown, I’ve came to obviously the faith of Christianity and my belief, uh, in Jesus Christ, that he died for our sins, and that’s what I hold true to myself.” Later, he elaborated on how embracing Christ ignited a passion in him to share the uplifting message of the gospel with others.

Thus, win or lose, there remains a constant fixture in Ryan Garcia’s life. Foremost, he ensures to express heartfelt gratitude to the Almighty, acknowledging the divine presence in his life. Even across his vast social media following, reaching millions, he takes care to regularly communicate updates on his religious convictions.
