Ryan Garcia has stated in the media multiple times that he wants to transition to MMA. He wants to retire at the age of 26 from boxing and then transition to MMA. In a chat with Ben Askren, he mentioned that he would love to learn to wrestle from him.
Ryan Garcia won’t mind facing Conor McGregor in MMA if that’s what people want to see. He has also trained jiu jitsu with Gracie and probably continues to do so. It seems real when he says he wishes to come to MMA, as all the efforts are directed in that same direction.
What’s your prediction for this one?
