Boxers deserve respect win or lose, says Ryan Garcia

Published

on

Boxing rising star Ryan Garcia expressed his dismay on the fans quickly listing off their favorite athlete once they end up defeated.
The lightweight contender added that the fans somewhat dare lose their respect and love for their favorite athletes just because they had one bad performance.
“I mean everybody loses, Serena Williams loses, [Christiano] Ronaldo has lost before. You see, legends lose; it\’s not the end of the world; you can come back and win and get better. I think it\’s unfair to the boxers,\” Garcia stated.
This issue broke out after the surprising defeat of Vasiliy Lomachenko against Teofimo Lopez.
Garcia even compared the UFC fans as better as fighters still being respected after every fight, win, or loss.
Boxing is also a combat sport, a brutal competition; that is why every boxer deserves respect from Garcia\’s perspective. Every time they stepped in the ring, they risked their lives, for their dreams, and entertainment to the fans.
\”In boxing, opinion and narratives change from fight to fight. What I mean by that is ignore what people say, especially in boxing; it\’s very unfair if you think about it,\” the American stressed out.
A similar situation occurred to the former heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder. After suffering his first professional defeat against Tyson Fury, fans already crossed him out while some lashed out words towards him due to his poor performance.
Things like these should have no place, especially in combat sports, wherein the worst can happen at any moment.

In a much-anticipated showdown, boxing fans are eagerly awaiting the clash between Terrence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr., set to take place on July 29, 2023. 

This bout is undoubtedly the biggest fight of the year, and both fighters wasted no time in making their presence felt at the press conference, held to announce the official confirmation of the event. 

With the undisputed welterweight crown on the line, the stakes couldn’t be higher.

Terrence Crawford, the current WBO welterweight champion, exuded confidence as he stepped up to the podium. Believing in his comprehensive skill set, he expressed his belief in being able to conquer the unified welterweight title holder, Errol Spence Jr. 

“I think everything is a key point in the fight. You got my jab; you got my movement, you got my counter-punching ability, and you got my brain with the way I think. Just all around,” Crawford said during a press conference. 

Crawford’s unblemished record speaks volumes about his dominance inside the ring. With an impressive tally of 39 wins, 30 of which were achieved by way of knockout, the WBO welterweight champion has consistently proven his mettle. 

However, standing in his way is the formidable Errol Spence Jr., who boasts an equally impressive undefeated record of 28 wins, with 22 of them coming by way of knockout.
