Days after stunning the world with his majority decision win over Devin Haney on April 20, Ryan Garcia sent a warning to internet personality and WWE star Logan Paul.
Garcia, 25, appeared on the PBD podcast and accused Paul and fellow YouTube star KSI of being ‘culture vultures.’
When asked if he would fight Paul, King Ryan insisted that he would ‘do worse.’
‘I will destroy Logan Paul,’ he said. ‘I’ve already sparred him [and] he didn’t hurt me once. He was way bigger than me, and I was whooping his ass.’
Garcia may have referred to a video entitled ‘I taught @loganpaulvlogs how to knock Floyd Mayweather out’ uploaded to his YouTube channel on April 1, 2021.

In the near-seven-minute-long video, Garcia helped Paul train for his fight against Mayweather in June 2021. The pair also sparred for a few rounds, with much of the footage not included in the vlog per Paul’s camp’s request.
Garcia’s advice came in vain as Paul failed to knock Mayweather down in the exhibition despite having a significant size advantage. Mayweather showcased his superior experience, landing 40.2 percent of his punches to Mayweather’s 12.2.
Three years later, Garcia and Paul’s relationship has gone bitter as the Victorville, California native went on a tirade calling out the Prime co-founder.
‘They’re leachers, man,’ Garcia said when asked about his issue with Paul and KSI. ‘They don’t stand for nothing, bro. They’re puppets – and at the end of the day, I don’t like people like that. These dudes are culture vultures. These dudes are wack.’
Additionally, Garcia accused Paul of using the George Floyd murder to elevate his platform.
‘You joined every movement you thought was possible for your platform [to grow]. He used the whole black empowerment movement [and] what happened with George Floyd for his benefit. And he got a lot of love for that, right?’

On April 20, Garcia scored three knockdowns to beat Haney via majority decision in Brooklyn
‘He took a guy off his channel for talking about Jesus,’ he continued, referring to Paul’s controversial statements about Christianity towards George Janko.
Garcia was on the hot seat behind a controversial buildup to his fight with Haney in Brooklyn, New York. His Bizarre social media behavior led fans to worry about his mental health, as Garcia’s posts went as far as claiming he got murdered after getting his ‘throat slit.’
On fight night, Garcia put on one of the most impressive performances of his career. Garcia scored three knockdowns to give Haney, who was 31-0 going into the fight, his first career loss.
‘You really thought I was crazy?’ Garcia said in his post-fight interview. ‘You done lost your whole mind.’
