Ryan Garcia has surgery on right hand and will be out of action for about six weeks before being cleared to resume training.
Ryan Garcia is currently coming off a bitterly disappointing loss to Rolando Romero early this month and won’t be jumping right back into action in the immediate future as he acknowledges on X that he had an injured hand going into the Romero fight that he ultimately now has underwent surgery to repair.
Garcia says he didn’t want to use is injury as an excuse for his poor performance in the Romero fight, but is happy to have had a successful procedure as he looks towards the future. He is expected to have to recover for six weeks before he’s cleared to resume training.
I went and got the surgery for my hand and what I needed to get done, I never used that as an excuse for my fight.
The media is going to report the surgery. I’m just blessed it was done and successful.
Thank you to all for the love and support from the community and people…
