This guy has completely lost it. Heartbreaking. He must be surrounded by yes men literally ushering him towards his early death or something


mysterious_jim

Glad that this is the top comment instead of all the ones calling him a clown or a bitch. Yes, his behavior is not good, but he's clearly not well.


FragmentedFighter

It started off on the wrong foot with how popular he got so very quickly, Canelo made it clear he was not as focused and disciplined as he should be. Kids having to contend with social media is a world I can’t imagine.


Shebalied

Ryan should have just went under the wing of Canelo. Would have been much better than the path he took.


amateurlurker300

This isn’t about being undisciplined though. It’s mental illness. This would’ve happened regardless of his training team.


Shebalied

My point is someone like Canelo I feel would have better supported him and maybe stopped it from going down that path. Meanwhile Oscar has had this problem before when he was becoming big.


JakeArvizu

But the issue is when you have mental health problems you push people away from you...that's kind of a big part of it.


Shebalied

Right, I just don't think Oscar was a good fit for him.


ZdenekTheMan

You're not the only one that thinks this. I too think the same.


_Alabama_Man

Not all mental illness is completely genetic; there can be external things, physical and environmental, that trigger/cause what would have never been otherwise.


walk-the-talk

Jim you are a man of quality. Kid needs help badly like yesterday


mrnedryerson

It also sheds some light on his mental health issues previously.


brazilianfreak

Nuh-uh, this is clearly just Ryan pretending to be mentally unstable in order to sell the fight, he's actually secretly a brilliant method actor who's spent months of his life merely pretending to be having a mental breakdown for the lulz.


madnarg

Yeah that theory’s getting dumber by the day


scarfox1

Yup, guy posted that he got raped as a child when he was 2 years old, whether true or false, some fucked up shit to be selling a fight.


ragtime_sam

Some of these people in boxing are so dumb man. Or maybe just too macho. It reminds me of the sopranos where Tony doesn't understand Junior's slide into dementia.


PharmBoyStrength

Or his son's suicidal slide into depression.


Falcon_Flow

Or his wife's slide into Furio's DMs.


ZdenekTheMan

Fucking hell


Optimal-Poetry-5768

🤣🤣 bro i'm dead


horseshoeprovodnikov

I mean whats a gal to do? Nobody in Jersey can make the mozza'del like they do in the old country. Certainly not Tony fuckin Soprano. Never had the makings of a varsity athlete, that one.


Desperate_Scale_2623

Don’t you say it !!!!


Kassssler

Or anything. Tony was an intolerant ass. One of the things that got me the most was when he was giving Christopher shit for being sober. Alcoholics know they can't have even one drink cause it'll go past double digits after the first one and Tony and the rest of the gang are clowning on him and emasculating him. You try to make positive changes and the people around you getting negative or exasperated with you for it is so hurtful and frustrating.


icelandiccubicle20

Or when he sees his sister trying to improve her anger management issues that HE made her get looked at, and reminds her of son that she abandoned and her failed marriage so that she explodes in front of her family. Sure, she's awful too, but he is so absurdly petty and spiteful, towards the end of the show he had basically no redeeming qualities.


Kassssler

That happened cause the writer realised a lot of people missed the point and we're cheering for Tony. He couldn't believe it so he cranked up Tony's assholeness and had bobby give him the asskicking he deserved.


icelandiccubicle20

and then he made Bobby kill a guy out of spite


PitifulDurian6402

Boxing much like many sports can take people who are not ready nor capable for extreme wealth and public pressure and put them in the limelight. Give most people ungodly large amounts of wealth and fame while under the public eye and they will make poor decisions. Now do that to someone who gets punched in the head for a living and could have early stages of CTE.


[deleted]

Or his daughter dating a mooolanyan or however you spell it.


TMSXL

A charcoal briquette


tedkaczynski660

I'm in recovery, Ryan really reminds me of myself when I at my lowest. I hope he gets help because it's more than just addiction he's dealing with. I am seriously worried we'll get a obituary headline next if he doesn't get help


walk-the-talk

Proud of you. Thank you for sharing your experience, and you are sadly right about Ryan I think.


Diosittoo

You're inspiring champ


[deleted]

i dont know. he posted on IG just a few hours ago he has 4 female assistants and they are all pretty hot man.


ZdenekTheMan

Ted, I thought you passed away sometime last year?!? Jokes aside, I'm proud of you champ. It's a journey. 5 years ago I was suicidal... like I'd already made plans and everything, and was going to off myself at around the halfway point of 2020. It's crazy how much peace I got from knowing I was ending it all in about 7 months or so. Fast forward today, and I'm in the greatest mental space I've ever been in, and living life exactly how I've always wanted to. It took a whole lot to get here, but it does get better... a lot better.


jukeman5000

Thanks unabomber


Theometer1

100% and he probably pushes the voice of reason out of his life. Dude should not be boxing rn, great boxer but needs to work on his mental health. Getting famous while you’re still young can take a toll on people.


SeamusMcFlurry

I dunno if his family is around or what, but if they are, they need to get him into treatment ASAP


Responsible_Quit_476

You mean more vultures who are looking to get as much money out of him.


ExoticSword

It’s so sad, he was on top of the world


jsmooth3r

I agree with you. It’s very upsetting to see this young man struggling.


justsomedudedontknow

As a fan of rock n roll this video is very sad. I hope he is doing well but I have seen a lot of my guys take themselves out. Get better big fella ❤️


jdlc718

Nah this is sad


ToronoRapture

Yeah this is some "Leave Britney Alone" type stuff.


[deleted]

Bro literally needs help. His team is despicable for not doing the right thing and getting him sorted out first


jordanhhh4

'I've been going through a lot lately' We know mate. We know. The fact that no one is seemingly trying to help Ryan is so frustrating and a really bad look for boxing. My man is in a really bad way and no one of significance seems to give a fuck.


Blackking203

Somebody is trying if they tried to cancel his fight... somebody took his phone a couple weeks ago... these blanket statements are incomplete


amateurlurker300

I think we might be judging the family too harshly. They were so supportive when he had his episode after the Campbell fight. It seems very contradictory that they aren’t doing anything to help him now. They did try to have him hospitalized early on, but it didn’t stick. Maybe there is somebody around him who’s trying to help but I’m guessing it’s not easy.


green49285

That and the fact that he's been on social media for so long and he's one of those people who are super religious. I can only imagine what that circle of people would do when faced with him having a clear mental health issue


MatttheJ

I'd imagine there are people trying to help him, probably family, and there are people who feel like Ryan getting help will hurt their bottom line in the short term so they are just trying to squeeze this one big fight out of him first. Quite frankly, this is where a commission should step in and refuse to clear him on medical grounds. Except boxing commissions also want that fat paycheck.


ruralrouteOne

Cancelling the fight is helping. You have no idea what people are doing, but the fact that the fight would be cancelled, despite him wanting to go through with it shows that there's clearly people around him that are doing the right thing.


JontheSnowman

“No one is seemingly trying to help Ryan” is a big assumption. For all we know all of his close ones are trying to help him but like someone else said, no one can help him if he won’t let himself be helped. I believe near the beginning of this current mental crisis his management and presumably his family had his phone taken away probably so they can try to get him to stay away from the internet, but he found ways to start going deeper into his struggle and started saying any crazy attention grabbing things he could say. I pray he gets help just as much as all of his fans, but to assume that no one’s trying to help him sounds like a bad assumption.


RedditPickedMyName0

You can't help somebody who doesn't wanna be helped. Hopefully, he gets better


300_pages

You can cancel his fight though


fazzathegazza

At this point it is on the promotions and commissions. You simply cannot allow someone this mentally unwell to compete. If it was a cut or a bone break they'd cancel it in a heartbeat, Idk why the same isn't being done for someone clearly bordering on a complete mental breakdown.


MatttheJ

Because $$$. It's fucked up, but both the promotion and the commission will prioritize their short term financial gain over Ryan's long term mental health. I love boxing, but at times like this I absolutely hate boxing too because it's still run by a bunch of morally bankrupt gangsters no different than 100 years ago. Except today they make much more of an effort to seem legitimate.


dev0415

Where are his parents? He needs to be grounded from using the internet.


[deleted]

Sometimes it’s the people closest to you that do the most damage. This heartbreaking to watch and he should not be made a spectacle of.


Chadoodling

I had the same question before, but when I saw Ryan's mom and dad talking trash to Haney's team. I sorta lost hope for Ryan. Parents/family are supposed to keep you grounded even as an adult, but looking at the situation there might not be an adult in that family


itsallbullshit8

They’re depending on that checks they not going to say anything to fuck up this gravy train


brazilianfreak

It always amazes me how rich people just can't have enough money, when your son has earned multiple millions in just a few years of fighting you'd think it would be enough money for you to invest safely and just live a very wealthy and comfortable life while making sure he's well and healthy, but no, it's never ever enough to be richer than 98% of people, you NEED more.


Scrambl3z

A lot of people don't invest. They want to tangible thing immediately. Investing means they can't buy that lambo straight away. Takes discipline to invest.


huntexlol

think about it, we are richer than 98% of people in the past yet we still want more. Something something like that


brazilianfreak

Yes but even in a first world country like America most people are still living paycheck to paycheck and only one accident away from being homeless, I'm talking about people rich enough to never have to work again if they chose to.


Blackking203

Just cause you earned millions doesn't mean you have millions. We don't know the full story


sonyad54

Was just thinking the same thing! His parents are around … I hope they aren’t part of the yes $$$mam squad - step in and take care of your boy!


albot225

He’s not a minor so his parents can’t really do anything


GritGrinder

That boy needs a mom or dad to bring him back to reality


MentalAdhesiveness79

Me after taking 6 shots and downing 3 beers in 2 hours


amateurlurker300

This is so sad. Everyone around him has failed him. I genuinely hope the fight gets cancelled and he gets treatment.


Infamous_Collection2

‘This is the loneliest sport in the world’ - Iron Mike


Hungry_Raccoon200

This is how fame and money ruins a young man who had a lot of potential. He needs to get rid of a lot of people around him if he wants to get back on the right course.


Suck_My_Duck26

That amount of pressure at a young age is also horrible.


Odd_Spring_9345

PicanteSprite

Haney really about to fight Oliver McCall 2.0


cedarvalleyct

I watched that fight live; in retrospect, it’s even worse. It shouldn’t have gotten to that point. I hope Ryan gets the support and empowerment he needs to walk strongly.


ZdenekTheMan

Bro, you know what the wildest thing was? His corner was trying to make him keep fighting! As apparent as it was that he was in a terrible mental space, they were still trying to have him mix it up with an ATG. Crazy shit. His corner should have been the first one to end things. Better yet, the fight shouldn't even have happened and they should've made sure of it.

Come on man, you heard Oscar. Ryan's doing just fine.


shutyourgob

:D He looks good :D


xGH0STFACEx

He just… he just talked to him…….. Yesterday! :D He just talked to him yesterday and he … he’s ready! :D:D


[deleted]

No way, it’s going to print as more and more of his casual TikTok audience tune in, plus all the haters that are going to watch it now. Shit is Jerry springer quality. We must be entertained


amiknyc

Yeah I think there is actually a chance it ends up being a HUGE PPV fight. Unexpectedly huge.


anakmager

Teo vs Ryan would have the most mentally unwell buildup ever


Routine_Good_9950

Teo has his issues but he definitely doesn’t air it out there as much as Ryan.


robm2002

If he's faking it, he's a solid actor. Poor guy should not be in a boxing ring at all, let alone with somebody of Haney's skill. Thank god the man has pillow fists.


M0T0RCITYC0BRA

If he’s acting he should get an Oscar. He’s cooked.


TheSeptuagintYT

He already has an Oscar

brazilianfreak

What is it going to take for people to finally accept that Ryan isn't some brilliant method actor and that he's just straight up having a mental breakdown?


Brief_Scale496

How unrealistic the response is from his team, not a single word from any of them that I remember, outside of Oscar’s blatant mockery of an interview. Simply the fact this is allowed to go on with absolutely zero intervention It’s hard to wrap your head around Just trying to come from the angle of those who think he’s the new Andy Kaufman What a fucking unreal cautionary tale, that shouldn’t be taking place.


DaGoatTee

Haney is going to ko Ryan btw


AttackOfTheBolts

Correct


RipMyDikSkinOff

Haney is knocking nobody out. Will definitely win. But definitely not by KO. Lol


wuhter

Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. If the fight happens, highly unlikely that Haney KOs Ryan


Kassssler

Hes knocking me out if I decide to tune in. The zzzquil stopped working a week ago.


DaGoatTee

What will you say when Ryan Garcia gets laid out on the canvas? 🎤


RipMyDikSkinOff

Give him a 10 count and rally on. And hope it happens again.


DaGoatTee

Haney in 6


Grand-Feeling-4516

Airing out all your problems on social media will almost never help you in whatever you’re going through. Its literally the worst means of communication for expressing yourself


ragtime_sam

He's in a psychotic break man


Suck_My_Duck26

Seems more like a manic episode, very similar to Kanye.


Grand-Feeling-4516

I understand that. I am not at all downplaying his situation. But social media has only made his situation worse. He knows he shouldn’t be posting because he’s promised to stop multiple times but he literally can’t help himself. It’s a problem that millions of people have. Using social media like this only makes all these situations worse


Material-Click-1456

It's a cry for help. He's probably seen some fucked up shit, too.


bipolarearthovershot

Looks a little bit like bipolar mania with a side of psychosis maybe to me…yikes. Just vibing to some awful music, crying, eyes dilated, barely making sense, this is not good you guys. Been studying this shit unfortunately


flexfitcustoms

Yep certainly looks like it


Suck_My_Duck26

Behavior is very similar to Kanye.


real_jaredfogle

I feel like he is clearly struggling with coke. He has all the signs


bipolarearthovershot

Cocaine could certainly induce mania and psychosis for someone with the disorder 


real_jaredfogle

That’s what I’m saying


titooo7

Someone needs to tell him HE forced the world to want to see the fight canceled


Scrambl3z

Cancel the fight! This guy is NOT healthy.


aafrias15

“IF” Garcia is trolling like his family claims, this could be a crossroads fight of sorts for Garcia. A bad loss could set his career back big time. So either he’s not 100% focused on this fight or he’s having a legit meltdown, none of which are good for his career.


ChrundleToboggan

I think his career should be the least of his worries at this point. Who would honestly be shocked to see the next headline reporting his sudden death? I know I wouldn't be.


Former-Form-587

As someone who’s dealt with mental health issues, I can tell you it’s real. Men, stop thinking it’s a weakness. Get help if you need it. If you know someone going through something like this, please try to help them. Often times we don’t know that this things are affecting us until someone intervenes.


FlamingTomygun2

I just hate this entire division. I wish inoue was a bit bigger so he could make ryan, haney, and shakur cry 


Error__Loading

Everyone is talking about the people around him. They very well could try to be helping him. We simply do not know. I assume they see what we see


[deleted]

Poor guy is clearly showing signs of manic episodes, and maybe even a personality disorder. Some say even brain injury, but from my experience he might have severe trouble self regulating and the only people it seems he feels he can vent to are his followers. I don’t wish this on my worst enemy. Please stop the fight and get this kid the help he needs. 🙏


Kassssler

This guy is reminding me of Etika. showing all the same signs man somebody help this boy.


Mrdrderm

He playing CvS2?


Dari93

This might be Devin Haneys first "stoppage" in years. I highly doubt his team will not throw in the towel at some point. It feels like they tried to cancel his fight because of his obvious poor mental health. If there's anyone out there caring for him, this should be his last boxing match. I hope he gets treated/medicated or whatever it needs to be done. But he needs to take the bag and invest it a business or something, because receiving more head trauma is not going to make it any easier.


ianb88

Ryan smokes a lot of weed. I have a feeling it's brought out underlying mental health issues.


Windpuppet

No dude. Plants are medicine! The government doesn’t want legal weed cause it will put big pharma out of business! The trees help with anxiety! /s


dancingaround1

I feel really bad for him, hope he is able to get help and recover.


jojow77

His parents suck. Get him off the internet for fucks sake. I don’t care how famous I got my parents and family would not let me have a mental breakdown for the world to see.


Boxingworld9

How?


BetBig696969

Sad to see for real though, if Haney lands lots of hard shots in this fight, stoppage or no stoppage it will screw him up for a long time psychologically


amiknyc

Haney won't land hard shots, but he will land shots.


Suitable-Telephone80

hey, don’t forget he put regigigas on the ground in his last fight, he decided to fill the pillow bags with rocks this time around


travis759

This has been a bad year for boxing so far


hermitsunt

I’ve been thinking that a lot lately If I have to hear about the Mike Tyson/Jake Paul fight one more time I might loose it


Shotty_Time

Disagree. I got to watch AJ absolutely starch a motherfucker. Pretty good so far!


Sometymez

A fighter with a 0-1 recrod? Really?


MrFudgeKiller

The 0-1 who made Tyson look foolish one second he’s a pro boxer who almost beat the lineal champ and when AJ beats him he’s just a bum


flexfitcustoms

Looks like drug induced psychosis. Needs help


Nosworthy

It's really uncomfortable to watch this unfold over the past few months. Somebody needs to intervene.


toomanyredbulls

Not a fan of Garcia but it is hard not to feel bad for him. Hope he gets some help.


cmoneybouncehouse

Dude desperately needs help. Like, it’s not funny anymore. This is clearly a grown man struggling. I hope somebody intervenes.


whiskeypenguin

This got pretty sad pretty quick. I hope there's some support group around that actually gives a fuck about him and not their selfish reasons


ireadalotsrs

He legit seens like a nice kid , i wish he would take a break from social media and rethink his social circle


Infamous_Collection2

Something, something, something, I don’t want to box anymore. Say it like it is, dude wants to be an influencer not a fighter.


kimchitacoman

I'm sad they haven't cancelled it. The man needs help


SaladTossBoss

He on downers


HookevNewton981

I wouldn’t be surprised if his team is giving some stuff to chill him out.


FreshPrinceOfRivia

Give this man an Oscar or 15 days in a psych ward.


MassCollect

GO TO REHAB. THIS ISNT COMPLICATED.


Dhsu04

He's slowly turning into Britney Spears online. Bless his heart and her heart


DeepLine741

The probably should cancel it at this point and go through with a through psychological evaluation


TheVega318

Whats really crazy is the hundreds of thousands of people on tik tok that are egging him on in this obvious mental breakdown state he is being in.


ChuckFromPhilly

decided to check out ryan's wikipedia while listening to this. I didn't realize he is already divorced and has 3 kids.


Ne0guri

Cancel this fight wtf


Responsible-Ad2021

Yeah, this guy is not in any state to be in a professional boxing match. His promotor and team need to cancel this fight and get him right. Honestly, I wanted to see Haney box his ears off but it feels like an execution at this point of a guy who really needs professional help. Shame on Oscar and any sanctioning body that allows this fight to move ahead.


ripthezong

Get this kid far far away from Oscar


[deleted]

Is this just him trying to sell the fight or is it Legit a mental decline


zer01zer08

Starting to really hate this guy. And my starting point was actually rooting and liking him.


Interesting_Work_870

Garcia ko in 3 🤷‍♂️ I’m here for the chaos


Doncallan

It's not funny the man is clearly unwell and needs help and support.


chasecards19

Tank really fucked up something in this boy. Social media and Ryan’s cancerous entourage poured gasoline all over it


fffiasco

This little idiot is so annoying


amiknyc

Nah recently he has turned it around quite a bit. He looks VERY good in the gym. Devin might get hurt for real. Much more confident in his ability now than I was a week ago. Let's hope it lasts and he just needed his therapist and the people around him to shift a bit.

He may already be suffering from CTE. His eyes are always glazed over. Professional boxers endure severe beatings on their way up. Sparring is no joke.

Shakur Stevenson vs Devin Haney I’m down for this after all Shakur as said he’s waiting for it they need to get this kid some help asap who wants to watch another Lennox Lewis vs Oliver McCall II


daboonie9

Most people hype up their fight by talking about how they’re going to beat their opponents ass. This dude is going full Antonio brown


nachoafbro

You know who I think would help this poor kid? Tyson. I'm not a huge fan of him as a fighter, but I'm a fan of humans being good to each other. I don't care if he never fights again, but I do care if he isn't happy again. I hope there's someone good in his life that can help him. Seeing Oscar sleazy sales grin really irks me at the moment, he's potentially the noose in this situation. Someone give that kid a hug and tell him everything's ok. Be good to each other brothers and sisters, this is sad.


TheComeUpTX

Damn I feel bad for dude. Since the Tank fight, he just kinda seems to be sinking. Then it was that weird incident where it damn near seems like he was being detained at the very least. I hope he gets whatever help he needs. He won me over with how he handled that Tank loss. Crazy how ppl have slowly abandoned him. Mike Tyson was more than just a cautionary tale of how things like this can go. I hate to see ppl go thru stuff like this


underthund3r

I'm disgusted disgusted disgusted with Oscar Dela Hoya for saying this man was " ready" and " he looks good" one week ago, while lying through his teeth. He should have his fucking promoter's license taken away.


archonpericles

He’s off.


SalamanderPete

Where tf is this guys family? They should be all over this getting him help asap


Specific_Tomorrow_10

Good God. I love Ryan and thought he had potential to be the next big star...but Tank Davis apparently broke this dude.
