[tiny_acres]

He announced his retirement on Twitter.

100 percent he'll fight agin

Before the year is out most likely. Or certainly next year. It may be his way of getting around certain tests or something for a while.

I have no doubt he will be back very soon.
But I find his insane rants and conspiracy theories hilarious

[Perseus]

All boxers are retired................until their next fight.

[KiwiRider]

I think his social media earnings are more than his boxing, except for his last fight. But his boxing value has dropped since then, and he is probably best focused on not getting punched in the face...
All the best to him.

[tiny_acres]

Garcia suspended for 1 year and his last fight ruled a no contest.

Probably true.
Financially, Garcia doesn't need boxing anymore.
He's still young but will likely be done boxing before age 30.

[Lackeos]

Is anyone gullible enough to believe that?

[Evander]

He should fight Teo he was retiring too

[ironbeard]

Garcia suspended for 1 year and his last fight ruled a no contest.

So, a one year retirement it is. Hopefully he can baggy his in the next 12 months. Best would be if he got it together AND left the sport behind.

[gilgamesh]

Being retired he'll be free to do as many steroids as he likes, and cycle off of them just in time for his comeback.

[coneye]

Excatly what Benn should of done , took the bann , announce retirement , announce the comeback

[cormack]

RG is such a prick .
He has clearly been found out to be 100 % on PEDS and has done a behind closed doors deal resulting in financial loss and the fight result now overturned .
He has to serve a minimum 1 year ban .
or temporary retirement if you think like a selfish spoilt narcissist

[Evander]

Lot's of credible people speaking highly of him.

[tiny_acres]

Lot's of credible people speaking highly of him.

And lots of credible people talk trash about him.
What's your point. He is a drug cheating weight bully nutcase

Agree. A true narcisstic POS person. He'll blow through his money and need boxing again within 2 years. He'll be Adrian Broner 2.0, still using trash talk to sell fights into his late 30s while losing because he needs the dough.

Is anyone gullible enough to believe that?

I believe he will return soon.

[Counter-puncher]

Lot's of credible people speaking highly of him.

i'm sure his dealers love him

[jaouad]

Tyson Fury type of retirement (he wil announce his comeback two days from now)

[tonyevs]

Isn't he banned

[tiny_acres]

Isn't he banned

Yep 1 year

[Sendo Takeshi]

Not that it means much, but Garcia is banned by the WBC after saying some racial slurs online.

I like upsets, so I was fine with him beating Haney. But this kid didn't just act mentally ill, he actually got some serious issues.
I hope we don't hear from him for a while.

[margaret thatcher]

the comments were deplorable (calling the guy a pedofile was just as bad as calling him a n!gger), but the wbc is a bit silly and phony . they have stood behind fighters who have actually beaten or abused people. if garcia ccomes back they'll probably lift this ban or whatever it is

btw, garcia is really weird with all the pedophile talk. he goes on and on and just accuses people without giving any evidence. he's even being appearing in sh!tshow amateur stings with social media 'pedo hunters' (and some of these types have been outed themselves before)
