In the high-stakes world of professional boxing, fighters often have their own unique pre-fight routines. Some listen to intense music, others meditate, and a few even dance to shake off the nerves. But Ryan Garcia, the rising star in the lightweight division, took things to a whole new level before his bout with Devin Haney.

Ryan Garcia’s Unusual Request

Garcia’s girlfriend spilled the beans on his pre-fight preparation. Apparently, just 24 hours before stepping into the ring, Ryan made an unusual request: he wanted a string quartet to perform live classical music in his dressing room. Yes, you read that right. While most fighters are busy wrapping their hands or visualizing their victory, Garcia was immersing himself in the soothing melodies of violins and cellos.

Imagine the scene: a dimly lit dressing room, the air thick with anticipation, and four talented musicians tuning their instruments. As the quartet played, Garcia sat there, eyes closed, perhaps finding solace in the timeless compositions. The juxtaposition was striking – the raw intensity of boxing meeting the refined elegance of classical music.

Adding to the surreal atmosphere, Mike Tyson, the legendary former heavyweight champion, was also present. Tyson, known for his ferocity in the ring, watched as Garcia soaked in the harmonious notes. It was an unexpected blend of worlds – the brute force of boxing intersecting with the delicate artistry of Mozart or Beethoven.

When the bell rang, Ryan Garcia stepped out, his mind perhaps still echoing the quartet’s performance. And what followed was nothing short of dramatic. He floored Haney three times during the fight – in the seventh, 10th, and 11th rounds. The judges’ scorecards favored Ryan Garcia, and he secured a majority points win. However, due to missing weight for the contest, he couldn’t claim Haney’s WBC light-welterweight title.

Ryan Garcia’s girlfriend playfully remarked that arranging the string quartet was the “easiest” task during the fight promotion. Amidst all the chaos, weight cuts, and mental preparation, Garcia found solace in the music. Perhaps it was his way of centering himself, of finding calm before the storm.
