The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has become brutal ever since the Hamas attack on Israel. Many in the sporting community have sided with one or the other. Moreover, the ones who sided with either have even engaged in spats on social media. Recently, Ryan Garcia revealed his thoughts about the conflict.

Garcia has been open about the plight of the kids on either side due to the conflict. Therefore, he had recently pledged to donate $20 million to help the kids in the region. In his recent appearance on the PBD podcast, Garcia revealed the reason for his action.

I'm a Christian, of course, I'm going to love Israel and the Holy Land. But Palestine, people, I have a heart for them. Jesus had a heart for the Gentiles, which they say, you know, back in the day, 'Oh, those are basically non-Jews.' So for me, I love everybody, and I'll leave it at that.

Garcia allegedly pledged $15 million when he was in the act for promoting the fight against Haney. Therefore, he clarified that he had not decided how much he would donate. Nonetheless, ‘King Ry’ did promise that he would equally donate to both parties.

Garcia also revealed a conversation he had with Benjamin Netanyahu, and he would go to Gaza in two weeks. The boxer intends to find a solution to help kids from the region. Visits like these could have last-minute cancelations. As such, it remains to be seen if Garcia visits Israel.

Andrew Tate pledged to match Ryan Garcia’s donation

Ryan Garcia is cordial with Andrew Tate, the controversial kickboxer turned Red Pill influencer. Garcia has not met Tate in person but conversed on social media. Even though Tate and Garcia have different religious beliefs, they respect each other.

When Garcia pledged to donate $20 million to Gaza, Tate offered to match the donation. Garcia spoke of it on his recent appearance on the PBD Podcast. He spoke of Tate positively as he was a ‘Truth Seeker.’ Nonetheless, he disagreed with Tate’s criticism of Christianity. Tate was born into a Christian family but later became an atheist. A few years ago, he converted to Islam and has criticized Christians and Christianity.

Nevertheless, after his upset victory against Devin Haney, Garcia has big things lined up. A potential rematch with either Haney or Gervonta Davis is possible. A USA vs. UK matchup with Conor Benn is also in the rumor mills. For his recent fight, he has revealed his expected remuneration to be between $30 to $50 million. He had allegedly made a huge splash as he bet on himself. As such, his next fight would be even bigger and have a bigger remuneration.
