Briggs Rips Ryan: “Worst Fighter of All Time”

Shannon Briggs, former heavyweight world champion, didn’t hold back in his reaction to Ryan Garcia’s loss to Rolando “Rolly” Romero, advising the 25-year-old star to walk away from boxing altogether.

“What’s his name — Garcia? Quit boxing. Worst fighter of all time. Ryan Garcia is the worst fighter in boxing history. He had a nice jab and a good check hook. He had solid fundamentals... But he’s not a fighter.

He stirred up all that drama — the racist nonsense — and then came back and fought like that? You lost to Rolly?

Boxing is wild right now. These are the superstars? I was ringside for all the fights and thought: ‘Damn, this is awful,’” said Briggs.

Garcia was dropped in Round 2 and lost to Romero by unanimous decision. Full fight stats are available via the link.
