Ryan Garcia has been making waves in the boxing world with his lightning-fast punches and impressive knockout record. With a massive social media following and a string of victories, Garcia has become a household name in the sport. Fans have been eagerly following his journey, both inside and outside the ring. Subsequently, the rising boxing star recently showed his soccer skills on social media during his family’s second annual Christmas game.
Every year, the Garcia family gathers for a friendly soccer match during the holiday season. It’s a tradition that brings the family together and allows them to showcase their skills in a different sport. This year, Ryan Garcia decided to join in on the fun and demonstrate his soccer prowess. Subsequently, Garcia suggested that he could have made it big as a football player if he didn’t have a boxing career.
Garcia posted the video with the caption:
As requested some highlights from the annual family Christmas game. Please be easy on me haha my third time ever playing or touching a soccer ball, most likely will delete.Ryan Garcia via X
Garcia can be seen playing quite well and seems to be handling himself with the ball. In addition, this was an interesting video because three years ago he talked about how he wanted to play football. However, in the video, Garcia bragged about only playing football three times his whole life.
This shows the fans that he never cared about football but always wanted to play. Hence, it can be interpreted that his family made a tradition of playing football every Christmas because of this. Fans reacted to the young boxing star’s clip with several mixed reactions.
