Cross-over trash talk: Topuria taunts Garcia over possible boxing clash
UFC star Ilia Topuria and boxing contender Ryan Garcia traded heated remarks about a hypothetical boxing bout. Topuria claimed he could beat Garcia in a boxing ring and even pursue boxing someday, while Garcia dismissed him as a hype MMA striker and warned he’d be stopped. The exchange referenced Garcia’s past Ostarine positive test and suspension. Real cross‑over talk remains unlikely while Topuria is under UFC contract, though Garcia has a September bout with Conor Benn scheduled.
