Following his recent upset victory over Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia has been actively engaging with fans on social media platforms. During a recent conversation on X's Spaces, Garcia expressed his interest in pursuing a fight for the 154-pound title, with WBO and WBC super welterweight champion Sebastian Fundora being a top contender in his sights.
Garcia confidently stated, 'I personally wanna beat up Fundora for the 154-pound title. I know he's 6-foot-6, but I can knock him out cold. I will put Fundora to sleep.' Despite suggestions from followers to face Rolly Ramirez next, Garcia emphasized his focus on challenging champions to silence his critics.
Sebastian Fundora, coming off a thrilling title-winning bout against Tim Tszyu, has garnered attention from various fighters in the division. Terence Crawford initially expressed interest as a mandatory challenger but is now set to face WBA 154-pound champion Israil Madrimov. Errol Spence Jr., who was present at the Fundora-Tszyu fight, also expressed interest in a potential showdown with Fundora.
Garcia's pursuit of a world title comes amidst criticism from some quarters, including former champion Timothy Bradley. Responding to the criticism, Garcia emphasized the importance of securing a title to validate his status as a top fighter in the sport. Despite missing out on a championship opportunity at 140 pounds due to weight issues, Garcia is now focused on competing at welterweight or super welterweight.
With potential matchups against fighters like Fundora or IBF welterweight titleholder Jaron Ennis on the horizon, Garcia's future in the ring looks promising. As he aims to address doubts surrounding his championship credentials, Garcia remains determined to make his mark as one of boxing's most influential figures.
As Garcia continues his quest for a world title, boxing fans can anticipate an exciting buildup to potential matchups that promise to deliver high-stakes action in the ring.
