News Ryan "KingRy" Garcia planning on retiring young from Boxing, wants Mcgregor in MMA.

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Ryan Garcia believes he'll be done with boxing early. He plans to retire at the age of 26. But the red-hot prospect is not saying he'll give up all combat sport at that time.

The popular Garcia said on The Rich Eisen Show on Thursday that he will consider moving over to MMA following his boxing career. The 22-year-old said he wants to prove he's the best fighter in the world -- and not just in the ring.

"If they say, 'OK you've beaten everybody in the ring' [and] somebody goes 'this ain't real fighting -- real fighting is legs, choking, submissions, all that,'" Garcia said. "Guess what I'll do? I'll go prove to them that I'm the best fighter all around in the world. I'm talking about hands, I'm talking about wrestling. I will go to MMA to prove a point that God is greatest. And I'll go beat whoever it is in MMA they say I won't beat. If it has to be Conor McGregor, I will. And I'm not saying this to get money -- I don't care about money. I'm saying this just because it's how I feel."

Garcia said his plan is to still leave boxing when he is 26 years old. But he wouldn't rule out a comeback there, either.

Good. It would be cool to have more crossover talent from boxing.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

What he wants and what actually happens are 2 different things.

He better run up on Dee and call her something really disrespectful to get Conor's attention.

Let's see him win his next couple fights first. Brandon Vera was destined to be a double champ at one time, and planned to retire young as well.

Pd. "KingRy" is "Beastin 25/7" bad

Oscar isn't going to let this happen.

 

[180bysummer]

0% chance that happens. He's young, but already lacking too much in everything other than hands. Also, when he realizes the peasant pay to work on everything...

Feed cody to him, he would KO Cody in 30 seconds

 

[pick999]

Why is this ufc forum

 

[TheMessiah]

Conor would most likely destroy him in an MMA Match

 

[The Chosen]

If he can get those 4 belts in boxing yeah. He needs to do something like that to retire young and go on to super fights

 

[The Bloody Nine]

Lopez will knock this idiot even more stupid. Haney beats him. He's fixated on the midget, Tank, though. That's a 50 / 50 fight.

I wouldn’t even put it behind him to do some lame shit like that considering he’s buddies with that corny loser Jake Paul

 

[YourBoss]

lol Ryan Garcia vs Conor hahahahah. Conor is like what 185lbs? Look at Ryan Garcia, physique like a stick. He could fight at 135 lbs, just like he does in boxing. If he takes his time with learning all aspects of MMA, sure he would be a force. But why would he do that. Far more money in boxing and no time wasted learning new tricks. Retarded idea.

It's nice to see a call out coming from the other direction. I'd like to see how boxers fare in MMA, but most crossovers are way past their prime.

What makes the McGregor aspect so interesting is because McGregor is a striking specialist facing a striking specialist. We haven't seen much offensive grappling from Conor. So Garcia might not have to worry overly much about tdd. What he'd really need to work on is checking kicks.

somebody please queue up the Rousey shadow boxing and show this clown how it’s done. She would out box and out mma him.

Conor would take him down at will, if he decided to though

WTF are you talking about? Conor would hulk smash him with ease and choke him out in a minute. There's nothing interesting about t'his

 

[cheesus]

He won't do it, talking shit for clout. He has a hard road ahead of him as it is, he can forget about MMA.

 

[Grapplefest]

In mma? Lmao Garcia is skinny as fuck with absolutely no grappling, Conor could probably suplex him over the cage.
