Ryan Garcia likes attracting attention and stirring up controversy on his social networks. He doesn't shy away from conflict and manages to remain in the conversation, which naturally benefits him in terms of getting better purses due to the media impact he regularly achieves.

In one of his latest posts on his X account, he went two ways. First he decided to give his support to Gervonta Davis, predicting a seventh round knockout in his next fight against Frank Martin.

The prediction raised eyebrows, because Gervonta Davis defeated Ryan Garcia, and it seemed that a rivalry was sparked between the two.

In recent weeks, that rivalry has potentially been discarded with the support the 'Tank' gave amid doping allegations levelled at 'King Ry'. Meanwhile, Garcia has a good relationship with Frank Martin, with the pair having been seen partying together.

"I will bet 1 million that Gervonta will Ko Frank Martin within 7 rounds. I love Frank but the truth is the truth," wrote Ryan Garcia on X in a post in which he sent a message to Errol Spence Jr, reminding him that he wants to fight him 'If he accepts the contract'.

Frank Martin (18-0, 12 KOs) will face Gervonta Davis (29-0, 27 KOs) on June 15 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The bout will be a WBA lightweight title fight.

David Benavidez 'accepts challenge' from Ryan Garcia

Errol Spence Jr. is not the only one who has been in Ryan Garcia's sights as far as his social media accounts are concerned. Garcia has also mentioned that he wants to fight David Benavidez.

On his X account, 'King Ry' challenged David Benavidez to get in the ring and fight him at 178 pounds, to which the Phoenix native responded on his Instagram with the following message: "Send me the contract, I'm down to 144 lbs."
