Ryan Garcia Feels Like He’s The Face Of Boxing
Ryan Garcia thinks he is the current face of boxing and the biggest name in the sport.
Garcia is set to face Devin Haney on April 20 live from the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York in a highly-anticipated fight. It’s another big fight for Garcia and he says that shows he is the current face of boxing.
“This is the time, I feel like I am stepping into my prime,” Garcia told DAZN’s YouTube channel. “I feel like in my heart, I am the face of boxing. I say that, because of my upside and how I can make anything have a higher reach. People don’t even just talk about my boxing, they talk about my life. If I walk wrong and they record I am going to go viral for some reason. So I think I am just that guy now.”
Entering the fight, Ryan Garcia is the betting underdog, but he doesn’t pay much attention to that. Instead, he has confidence that he will be able to get the win and prove he is one of the best boxers in the world.
“I touch places that ‘Canelo’ [Saul Alvarez] can’t touch and I touch places no fighter right now can touch – just me,” he said. “I am a marketing machine and I have the will to be the best at everything I do… Will this fight solidify me as a world champion – yes. Do I need that? Yes. Am I going to do this? Yes. That is just a bonus, but it also signifies he is the face of boxing.”
Regardless of the outcome, Ryan Garcia says he will be getting big fights no matter what as he is the biggest name in the sport.
