In a recent video, Paul was seen Face Timing Garcia, asking him what he had to say. This further escalated into both fighters shouting expletives at each other.

Meanwhile, Paul also reminded ‘KingRy’ that the call was being recorded. “You little bro. You got no balls. No balls. I’m gonna put you back on the canvas like Tank did,” he said.

Garcia, on the other hand, reiterated by stating that his nether regions weren’t as small as Paul claimed it to be. He even mentioned that he was ready to prove the same. Paul quickly responded, “I wouldn’t be surprised if you put your balls on the internet Ryan. Brother, you’re losing it.”

What transpired

Paul’s anger wasn’t misplaced. To put it lightly, Garcia’s recent online behavior hasn’t been the best. ‘The Problem Child’ faced Bourland at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan, Puerto Rico, March 2, 2024. He went on to win the fight via an impressive first-round TKO.

After Paul‘s victory, Garcia took to social media to call him out and challenge him to a fight.

In fact, he vowed to “end this Jake Paul boxing thing.” Moreover, he posted what looked like a boxing poster of both Paul and him. “I can’t take this shit no more,” he wrote.

Paul addressed Garcia’s callout in his post-fight presser, stating he was the better boxer.

“Ryan, I love you. You know that, bro. But you’ve got to chill out because there’s a line, and you just seem like you’re losing your mind and acting thirsty and desperate and saying you’re a billionaire when you had one money fight,” he said. “But if you do want to fight, that’s, to me, light work. You’ve got no footwork. And as long as you’ve been in the game, I’m a better boxer than you.”

In a later voice clipping, Garcia said he felt horrible for introducing Paul to boxing and stated that he was “disrespecting” his sport.
