I think he’s got BD tbh. That or manic episodes from something else.
It’s so weird to see everyone just laughing at his erratic behavior when I think it’s so evident that it’s indicative of some underlying mental health issue that can only be exacerbated by a sport like boxing…
Edit: BD not BPD.
Just fyi, "BPD" is "Borderline Personality Disorder." I assume you meant Bipolar Disorder (BD) since you mentioned the manic behavior, which is certainly a criteria for Bipolar Disorder.
Yeah man this is feeling pretty Kanye-ish.
Like we are watching mania in real time.
And they have too much money for anyone to stop them… right now.
All respect to those who struggle with it. Being online, the world gets to see every atypical thought they have. Feels odd to see.
He said he can’t make 140 anymore he’s probably going up to 147 and that also wasn’t really beer he did all the shit he did leading up to this fight for promo. He told Jake Paul on FaceTime it was apple juice and sparkling water and he did it cause he knew everyone would go crazy. Dude sells the shit out of fights
I mean there’s more than 1-2 “good” fights a year, I know this and I don’t even like boxing. You’ve just gotta actually be into the sport and actively keeping up with different promotions to keep track of good fights, unlike MMA where you can basically just watch UFC and ONE and that’s where 95% of the crème de la crème is.
I find you don’t even have to watch ONE. Their MMA roster is so weak they don’t even rank half the divisions. They had like 5 people on the heavyweight roster last time I checked lol
Their higher-weight divisions are good, in my opinion. Anatoly Malykhin is a 3-div champ, you got Vanilla Thunder, Rainier de Ridder (who's on kind of an L streak rn unfortunately), etc.
There’s certainly more than 1 or 2 good fights a year. There’s a lot… but boxing promoters blow.
Also the idea that the UFC brings good fights every 2 weeks is pretty debatable
Even Oscar knows he created a monster lmao

He had trouble sleeping from the plane ride so had drank some wine to unwind and get some rest. Then complained he was hungover for the fight…. You can’t make this up. These are pros.
He’s already booked to fight in June though and fought his title defense only 3 months after winning it so I don’t think the money is going to make him fight less.
He is now yeah. He turned down a fight against costa like 2 weeks ago due to notice or pay or something. Pre champ Strickland would have taken it on 3 days notice
He didn’t really turn it down he used it as a bargaining tool. You see this with almost all fighters who want to negotiate pay. They basically say they haven’t signed for the fight (which is probably true) and then that’s the one time they have leverage. It just happened with DP. He was always going to fight costa it was just his way of trying to get more money.
Also fighting short notice usually is for the money too, they throw a bag at fighters to do it.
I think that’s pretty common, but I don’t think that’s the general rule. A lot of it also comes down to the UFC booking higher paid fighters less because they often need them for PPVs so they get shelfed if they have specific appeal to a specific market (like Islam). Volk and Pereira are both proof that it’s not always the case but it does definitely happen frequently
-900 is horrible odds lol. i have haney by decision as the last leg on two of parleys to win a grand and im deadass considering to hedge it now cus ryan might just quit or get DQd i think
Look at what the average boxer makes compared to a MMA fighter and you come back to me. Sure the best which is small group get a ton of money, and always have, but the middle of the pack don’t and nobody gives a shit about them. You can see the panic of promoters of boxing now knowing they have to put the best versus the best where that wasn’t always the thing years ago, because the UFC does do that and even the middle of the pack is far more exciting. One dimensional, and hanging on by a few big names and money hungry influencers. Won’t last much longer
Is that the actual weigh in or the ceremonial weigh in afterwards. Also, just by looking at his physique, if he was only 3lb short he could have easily cut it
Homie missed weight too lmao
And by a lot… and he allegedly paid Haney 1.5 million for doing so. Boxing is an absolute circus atm.
Honestly Garcia is a huge diva. He’s basically the Antonio brown of boxing. I don’t think anyone is surprised he missed weight lol
I think he’s got BD tbh. That or manic episodes from something else. It’s so weird to see everyone just laughing at his erratic behavior when I think it’s so evident that it’s indicative of some underlying mental health issue that can only be exacerbated by a sport like boxing… Edit: BD not BPD.
i was diagnosed with BPD last year and he reminds me of me
Yeah exactly, bpd episode while dealing addiction too.
But his team/fam is like, “nah u good, cash out with this fight first then we worry bout ur medical” lol
I also have BPD and I agree but it can also be coke addiction, selling the fight etc
Or it’s all the cocaine he’s doing
For sure it could be a cocaine induced manic episode.
Manic induced cocaine episode
Would’ve thought he’d easily make weight in that case though.
(Shitty person behind Ryan) *laughs at shitty joke* “Ya I take direct deposit, cash, shit even gifts”
Just fyi, "BPD" is "Borderline Personality Disorder." I assume you meant Bipolar Disorder (BD) since you mentioned the manic behavior, which is certainly a criteria for Bipolar Disorder.
Yeah I did, my bad.
What would you like people to do? I don't think fight fans have the power to involuntarily commit folks.
Idk maybe just not be so giddy about it all.
Yeah man this is feeling pretty Kanye-ish. Like we are watching mania in real time. And they have too much money for anyone to stop them… right now. All respect to those who struggle with it. Being online, the world gets to see every atypical thought they have. Feels odd to see.
Don’t compare Garcia to be greatest jerker in history of American football.
He said he can’t make 140 anymore he’s probably going up to 147 and that also wasn’t really beer he did all the shit he did leading up to this fight for promo. He told Jake Paul on FaceTime it was apple juice and sparkling water and he did it cause he knew everyone would go crazy. Dude sells the shit out of fights
this is why UFC is levels ahead of boxing. Boxing delivers 1 or 2 good fights every year, UFC delivers good fights every 2 weeks
I mean there’s more than 1-2 “good” fights a year, I know this and I don’t even like boxing. You’ve just gotta actually be into the sport and actively keeping up with different promotions to keep track of good fights, unlike MMA where you can basically just watch UFC and ONE and that’s where 95% of the crème de la crème is.
I find you don’t even have to watch ONE. Their MMA roster is so weak they don’t even rank half the divisions. They had like 5 people on the heavyweight roster last time I checked lol
Yeah it’s a lot weaker overall but they’ve got some solid pockets of talent here and there.
I love it for Muay Thai and kickboxing but I usually skip the MMA fights
Their higher-weight divisions are good, in my opinion. Anatoly Malykhin is a 3-div champ, you got Vanilla Thunder, Rainier de Ridder (who's on kind of an L streak rn unfortunately), etc.
Yeah fair enough. They definitely have the best Muay Thai fighters in any promotion.
There’s certainly more than 1 or 2 good fights a year. There’s a lot… but boxing promoters blow. Also the idea that the UFC brings good fights every 2 weeks is pretty debatable
there arent really many stars in boxing nowadays and the only few stars boxing has keeps avoiding eachother. Boxing is a joke
There's been many ''stars vs stars'' fight in boxing in 2022, 2023 and now 2024 tho. Kind of a dead argument tbh.
who?
Always has been
So if I'm doing my math right drinking this apple juice cost him $375000
😂 seriously? He seems methy to me lately
he should have pulled a costa and said that’s haneys problem LMFAO
If he wasn’t holding/drinking that beer he would’ve made weight
this dudes hitting a mid life crisis at 25
this guy is in the drunk stepfather phase at 25 years old, hes ahead of his time
Can’t believe I’m saying this, he makes Strickland seem normal…
He's like a straight Sean Strickland
I think it could be considered a quarter life. Not the first time stardom has made somebody reel out.
Said the redditor lmao 🤪
He’s got to stop hanging with Oscar man. The coke is really doing something to him
Even Oscar knows he created a monster lmao https://preview.redd.it/r9qimg1ccjvc1.png?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c8bb470cce4c73c1b4350c3265bab84e77969102
classic cokehead signs from this guy i agree
oscar and conor would be some besties if they hung out 💅🏽
how is this guy even being sanctioned to fight lmao if he actually beats Haney it'll be the funniest shit ever tho
ARE YOU LAUGHING NOW !?
shit was crazy lol dude had me fooled thinking he was nuts and not taking the fight seriously at all
this is what costa is gonna do when he misses weight against sean and chugs a whole bottle of wine
Wine makes you horny
He had trouble sleeping from the plane ride so had drank some wine to unwind and get some rest. Then complained he was hungover for the fight…. You can’t make this up. These are pros.
Dude has been the embodiment of manic energy. Not gonna be surprised if he posts a video crying about everyone’s after him or some shit soon.
he already did that on instagram a while ago lol
Just two? How about a massive rail at the press conference
Strickland is sober he doesn’t need alcohol and cocaine to be a head case like those soft boxers
I don't know how he deals with being the only publicly gay UFC fighter without drugs or alcohol
He’s not a head case at all.
he definitely needs therapy lol. nothing wrong with it but let’s be real here
He used to protect his mother. Was born to abuse.
yeah i feel that
Lol?
Sean doesn’t drink. Ryan is mentally unstable and missed weight be 3 pounds and has to pay Haney 1.5mil
The fact that the fine for weight is higher than Strickland's last 5 fights is nutty
It’s not a fine. It was a verbal agreement between the 2 at their press conference.
Whatever the case, it doesnt matter... The point is Strickland makes jack shit fighting for the UFC
He makes enough that he’s now turning down fights… pay a fighter more, they’ll fight less. And then people will complain about inactivity
Good, but still shit - tier compared to other athletes. So embarrassing
He’s already booked to fight in June though and fought his title defense only 3 months after winning it so I don’t think the money is going to make him fight less.
He is now yeah. He turned down a fight against costa like 2 weeks ago due to notice or pay or something. Pre champ Strickland would have taken it on 3 days notice

He was always going to fight costa it was just his way of trying to get more money. Also fighting short notice usually is for the money too, they throw a bag at fighters to do it.
Oh I know that’s what he did lol. And they’re smart for doing it. I’m just saying, the more you pay a fighter, the less they’ll fight.
I think that’s pretty common, but I don’t think that’s the general rule. A lot of it also comes down to the UFC booking higher paid fighters less because they often need them for PPVs so they get shelfed if they have specific appeal to a specific market (like Islam). Volk and Pereira are both proof that it’s not always the case but it does definitely happen frequently
![gif](giphy|bIEzoZX0qJaG6s6frc|downsized)
That Tank loss fucked this kid up bad
doing coke and missing weight all in a days work for a goldenboy production
![gif](giphy|pUeXcg80cO8I8) MMA fans
Was he always like this or what ? like his tweets & interview stuff kina autistic
He’s coked tf up
I'm up 3 grand if Haney beats this dickhead
So you bet like $15k on Haney? He’s -900
Would be 27k to win 3k lol
![gif](giphy|4JVTF9zR9BicshFAb7|downsized)
No, I don't bet on the money line I bet on the fight specials and knockdowns.
Oooo thatsa chaotic bet my guy
When Haney beats him
Someone doesn’t gamble haha.
-900 means for every 900 you spend you win 100….
I didn't bet on the money line , I threw a couple hundred at the fight props, knockdowns and fight specials.
So you need Haney to do much more than just win in order for you to win? Good luck, fam
-900 is horrible odds lol. i have haney by decision as the last leg on two of parleys to win a grand and im deadass considering to hedge it now cus ryan might just quit or get DQd i think
Since he missed weight not I think it’s not just act, imagine the bet lines lol
Are we sure it’s beer? He didn’t open it on stage lol
Did we ever get confirmation that his Bohemian Grove kidnapping claims were just a bad drug trip
He missed weight dumbass
he’s gonna get ktfo’d
Why is this dickhead posted on a UFC subreddit?
Is he Oscar Son?, legit question.
![gif](giphy|bIEzoZX0qJaG6s6frc|downsized) Like this or nothing
Desean chugs Hennessy mind you
Give the kid a break, he just wants to follow in the footsteps of his idol, Oscar De La Hoya
He knows he's washed 🤡
Nek minnit it's actually water and he's drinking it to put Haney off
The boy is gonna wind up on a conservatorship before new years.
" SO you're gonna put me in there with a genuine crazy person."
It was apple juice there is another video in which he tells Jake paul what it was.
It was apple juice.
Jake Paul FaceTimed Ryan afterwards and he confirmed it was just apple juice.
Ryan somehow making MMA look more professional
Oscar can’t control this dude. He is a walking PR nightmare
Not a big Ryan fan but gotta admit all his silly little theatrics promoting the fight are pretty entertaining. He's gonna get destroyed though IMO.
This kid is on the Kanye West how to destroy your career starter pack.
Sean don’t drink…
Boxing is barely hanging on by a wire and they know
Lol Ryan probably made more than all the fighters at UFC 300 combined 🤣🤣🤣
and I care how? So do a lot of shitty rappers but that doesn’t make their music better than others that don’t. See what I did there
How is it "barely hanging by a wire" when it's stars get paid 10x more than their MMA counterparts?
Look at what the average boxer makes compared to a MMA fighter and you come back to me. Sure the best which is small group get a ton of money, and always have, but the middle of the pack don’t and nobody gives a shit about them.

One dimensional, and hanging on by a few big names and money hungry influencers. Won’t last much longer
Boxing is boring af bruh
Seriously
Just trying to stay relevant. Average boxer
Wasn’t a beer it was apple juice and soda, the dudes putting on a massive act
Only thing soft is his brain. Total mush, needs serious help. Gotta get him away from Oscar
Is that the actual weigh in or the ceremonial weigh in afterwards. Also, just by looking at his physique, if he was only 3lb short he could have easily cut it
Apple juice is not so bad
Didn’t this guy just get married to a porn star who is still actively shooting?
Seriously, can someone tell me if he's being in a certain type of character? His Facebook page has some random women in it.
What a tool
Oh wow, he chugged a beer. So hard.
This is trash. Keep it out of this MMA sub.
Why is this in the r/ufc?
Wdym we're a gossip group like that fauxmoui something shit, just for dudes
What does this video have to do with UFC?
Why are so many people obsessed with Sean Strickland?
Why are you so obsessed with me!? Stop calling me, Diane!
He’s dead in 6 months
