Ryan Garcia Tells All: Childhood Fights, Tank Loss & Building a Global Brand

Ryan Garcia Tells All: Childhood Fights, Tank Loss & Building a Global Brand.

In this exclusive sit-down, we go over Ryan Garcia Tells All: Childhood Fights, Tank Loss & Building a Global Brand.

Ryan Garcia joins Señor Tilt back in late 2024 for an unfiltered, no-holds-barred conversation covering everything from childhood grind to viral fame. Ryan opens up about growing up in Victorville, California, discovering boxing at just seven years old, and training in a garage with nothing but grit, his dad, and his uncle guiding him.

The conversation dives deep into Ryan's early rise through the amateur boxing world, winning over 15 national titles, and turning pro at just 17 years old. He shares how he balanced the struggle of low-paying early fights in Mexico with his bigger vision of building a personal brand that transcends the ring. Ryan also reveals the moment his social media went viral—thanks to a fan-posted video of his lightning-fast hands on a Cobra bag—and how he leveraged that moment into becoming one of the most followed boxers in the world.

Señor Tilt and Ryan talk about personal brand building, the power of social media, and the lack of a marketing team behind Ryan’s rise. From fashion to fatherhood, from managing fame to staying grounded, Ryan gives rare insight into the mindset that sets him apart in today’s fight game. They also explore the aftermath of Ryan’s loss to Gervonta “Tank” Davis, how it reshaped his career decisions, and what it taught him about contracts, health, and self-worth.

The episode also touches on fashion, business, and future ventures—including Ryan’s upcoming cologne launch and his desire to design something truly iconic with Monkey Tilt. This conversation is raw, real, and filled with gems about life, risk-taking, and what it means to stay authentic in an industry built on appearances.
