Ryan Garcia keeps getting on the bad side of the fans. This time, it was for the peculiar way in which he announced that his mother was battling cancer.
Following his positive drug test after a dominant performance against Devin Haney, Garcia has lost a considerable amount of credibility. He has since been picking up social media fights with anyone who’s mentioned his name, be it Conor McGregor or Sean O’Malley.
His latest X video was somehow even more bizarre than usual…

… and had a lot of fans wondering whether something was really wrong with him.
One fan called out Ryan Garcia for recording himself but hoped his mother would beat the deadly disease.
“I find it weird that he’s recording himself. I hope his mother survives cancer.”

This fan called Garcia out for making a mockery of the situation by putting it on social media instead of being by his mother’s side and helping her,
“Spend time with your mom and stop being a weird f*ck on twitter then”

Yet another fan dissed the boxer for his peculiar video, with an emotional song playing in the background,
“Get off the internet and go cope bro this ain’t a good look honestly..”

Someone rightfully pointed out how weird it was for Ryan Garcia to record himself crying to announce something as serious as cancer,
““My mom has cancer, let’s record me.” Something’s wrong with you.”

With Garcia’s mother’s cancer diagnosis, it is important for her to be surrounded by her family in her battle with cancer. So, following his announcement of his mother’s condition, Garcia doubled down and canceled his next show.
“It’s with a heavy heart that I need to postpone tonight’s show in San Antonio.”

I will make it up to my fans who planned to come out. Show will be reschedule or tickets will be refunded, and I hope to see you all soon.…

Fans who were looking forward to meeting Garcia at the San Antonio show on Saturday night will be disappointed but they will understand. No mother should have to go through something so terrible without their children by their side.
