Ryan Garcia posted today on social media, saying he’s “ready for war,” signaling his readiness to return to the frontlines for combat following a setback in a defeat against Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero last May.
Barrios in the Crosshairs
Garcia did not give a timeline for his return. He said recently, on October 8th, that he wants to challenge Mario Barrios for his WBC welterweight title. That champion is in high demand, as Conor Benn, Manny Pacquiao, and Lewis Crocker have also expressed interest in challenging Barrios (29-2-2, 18 KOs).
Fans Fire Back
Fans on social media have been roasting Ryan today over his “ready for war” comment, saying these things:
- “Says the quitter“
- “The worst boxer in the world, Rolly beat yo a**”
- “Whatever you say, diva.”
- “Just give up. GB should’ve dumped your ungrateful a**.”
- “You back on Ostarine?”
The 27-year-old Ryan (24-2, 20 KOs) has had time to heal and rehab his surgically repaired right wrist, an injury that he aggravated during a fight with Rolly on May 2, 2025, at Times Square in New York. Kingry reportedly had a wrist problem since December 2024, but still went ahead with the fight with Romero.
I’m ready for war

“I haven’t said this publicly, but I want Mario Barrios. I’m going to go for it,” said Ryan Garcia to The Warroom on ShowBizz’s YouTube channel.
Haney Rematch Temptation
It would be a good idea for Ryan Garcia to get a sure-thing for his next fight, as he still has an excellent chance of setting up a lucrative rematch with Devin Haney.
The former two-division world champion Haney (32-0, 16 KOs) is battling Brian Norman Jr. for his WBO welterweight title on November 22, 2025, in Riyadh. Even if Haney loses that fight, there will still be a demand for a rematch between him and Ryan Garcia.
Last year, Ryan made easy work of Haney, knocking him down three times en route to a 12-round majority decision victory on April 20, 2024, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
The New York State Athletic Commission later overturned the victory following Ryan’s positive test for the PED Ostarine.
