"Who Else Do I Have to Beat?": Ryan Garcia Surprised He's Not in P4P Rankings
American lightweight boxer Ryan Garcia expressed his frustration about not being included in the pound-for-pound (P4P) rankings and questioned what more he needs to do to earn a spot.
Quote: "Who else do I have to beat to get into the P4P list? I think I'll make it there after I beat Teofimo Lopez?" Garcia said.
Reminder: Ryan Garcia is currently serving a one-year suspension from boxing after failing a doping test following his fight with Devin Haney in April. Afterward, Garcia announced on his social media that he is retiring from the sport.
Garcia's sample A tested positive for 19-norandrosterone. However, his test for the banned substance came back negative prior to the fight with Devin Haney. As a result, it was determined that the substance was not used before the fight. Further investigations were conducted into his use of ostarine.
The results of the second sample B confirmed the presence of banned substances, further substantiating the violation.
