Ryan Garcia Calls Out Rolly Romero’s Chin and Blames PBC Politics for Blocking Fights
It’s no secret that the world of boxing is filled with politics and maneuvering behind the scenes. But when it comes to the career of Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero, it seems like his own decisions have led to his downfall.
Last Saturday night, Romero lost his WBA light welterweight title to Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz by an eighth-round TKO. And Ryan Garcia, who has been vocal about wanting to fight Romero in the past, wasted no time in calling out his chin and blaming PBC politics for blocking potential fights.
Garcia took to social media to roast Romero, stating that his chin is “toast” and he can no longer take a punch. This comes after Romero’s sixth-round knockout loss to Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis in 2022 and a leaked video of him being knocked out by a sparring partner.
But what’s even more frustrating for Garcia is that Romero walked away from negotiations to fight him, opting instead to defend his title against Pitbull Cruz on the undercard of Tim Tszyu vs. Sebastian Fundora. Garcia believes this was a bone-headed move and that Romero should be angry with whoever talked him into it.
But it’s not just Romero’s chin that Garcia is questioning. He also believes that Romero was never a good fighter to begin with and that his promoters at Mayweather Promotions have carefully maneuvered his career to get him this far.
Garcia has been trying to line up a fight against Romero for a while now, even when he was making his comeback after a year and a half layoff. But Romero continuously turned down the opportunity, even when it was ordered by the WBC.
When asked why he thinks the fight hasn’t happened yet, Garcia points to PBC politics. He claims that they won’t let anyone fight him unless he’s fighting with them, and that they have no interest in making a fight between him and Romero happen.
But with Pitbull Cruz mentioning after his win that he’d like to fight Garcia, it’s possible that PBC may give the greenlight for that fight. And if they do, it would make sense for them to also agree to a fight with Garcia.
It’s a frustrating situation for Garcia, who just wants to prove himself against the best in the division. But with politics and personal decisions getting in the way, it seems like the fight between him and Romero may never happen.
