Ryan Challenges McGregor to a Fight

American junior welterweight (up to 63.5 kg) Ryan Garcia (25-1, 20 KOs) responded to former UFC champion Conor McGregor's remarks.

Recently, Conor tweeted that Ryan should be banned for life for using performance-enhancing drugs.

"Cheated on weight and on doping - lifetime ban. Sad to see, sad to say. Sad and a bit crazy. Don't even come near me if I ever see you, Ryan Garcia.

I'm truly disgusted. Ostarine reminded me that Sean O'Malley was also on it. I don't like it, and I'll beat both of you up. If you want to spar, I'll send a plane for you right now to do a full sparring session with each of you. Let's spar, O'Malley and Garcia, two little ostarine heads. I'll ride both of you like ostriches.

What the hell is going on? What do you think you're on? If I were Haney's father, you'd be dead, no matter the cost. Insanity. What the hell happened to you, little fool? Get your head in order because I'll smash it with elbows if you don't. Kudos to Devin, well done. Your performance became even more heroic. Bravo," McGregor wrote.

Garcia didn't stay silent and suggested Conor fight him bare-knuckle in the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC), in which McGregor recently became a shareholder.

"Bare Knuckle. Let's f*****g do it, Conor. Winner takes your trash whiskey brand," Garcia replied.

On May 2nd, it was revealed that Ryan Garcia failed a drug test taken before his fight against WBC junior welterweight champion Devin Haney (31-1, 15 KOs). The fight took place on the night of April 21st, where Garcia defeated Haney. Despite the loss, Devin remains the WBC champion as Ryan didn't make weight and didn't contend for the title. Conor was in Garcia's locker room before the fight against Haney and supported him.
