Ryan Garcia has officially been suspended from boxing and he’s not happy about it.

On Thursday, Garcia and his team settled with the NY State Athletic Commission and came to terms on a one-year suspension and $1.1 million fine after he tested positive for Ostarine after his fight vs Devin Haney.

Garcia’s team released a statement on social media declaring his innocence.

“Ryan Garcia was a victim of substance contamination, with levels measured in the billions and trillions of a gram, which provided no advantage whatsoever in the ring.

“Ryan, with his legal team, has resolved this issue and firmly maintains his truth: he never intentionally took any banned substance. It’s simply not in his nature.”

“For many years, Ryan has voluntarily submitted to random testing, even during out-of-competition periods, and has never had any issues. He has maintained an impeccable and clean record throughout his career, significantly elevating and transcending the sport of boxing, earning respect and admiration from millions of fans worldwide.”

“The fans will always remember his performance against Haney as a masterclass, and that will never be erased.”

Garcia reacted to the suspension news on social media by absolutely losing his mind.
