Anthony Joshua responds to Ryan Garcia’s remarks.
Anthony Joshua, the three-division and current WBC lightweight world champion, has responded to Ryan Garcia, the 140-pound challenger, who said that no one in the boxing world is afraid of him.
In November, Stevenson won a world title in a third-weight class by defeating Edwin De Los Santos; nevertheless, others argue that, despite winning, his lackluster performance may have done more harm than good.
Stevenson, who is only 26 years old, declared his retirement because he is so frustrated that no other boxing great is prepared to take on him. Fans believe that his superstar status and pay-per-view attraction may have suffered.
In an interview with The Breakfast Club, Ryan Garcia dismissed the idea of a bout with Stevenson, saying he wasn’t in the same league as celebrities like himself and Gervonta Davis.
No one has ever said to Shakur, Yo, and you would be nuts,” on the street.
He is an excellent boxer, but nothing particularly jumps out at me. Yes, you are a skilled mover, but not nearly as skilled as Tank [Gervonta Davis] or me. I’ve always been observant, so I am aware of the different ones. He is not unique.
Stevenson responded by criticizing Garcia on social media and stating that he would be open to a super-lightweight fight.
If that’s not the scariest thing I’ve ever heard, then laugh. Are you able to defeat me? Everything else is unimportant. dreadful Ryan – You would give everyone else a chance instead of me because of this.
No, I would fight him at 140 pounds; I don’t want him to drop to 135 pounds.
Garcia is scheduled to fight Devin Haney for the WBC super-lightweight title first, but a Stevenson match could follow.
