Ryan Garcia is committed to clean living and fair competition and has never deliberately used any illegal substance. Shortly after being notified of his positive test, Ryan voluntarily cut his hair up and sent it to Dr. Pascal Kintz, the leading expert in toxicology and hair analysis samples. The outcomes of Ryan Garcia’s hair sample came back negative. “This is consistent with contamination and clearly demonstrates that Ryan had not ingested Ostarine for a period of time, the only way he would have had any advantage anywhere in the ring,” he stated.
“Ryan has voluntarily submitted to testing throughout his career and has always returned negative results. He also tested negative several times before the Haney fight. All of these factors, combined with his ultra-low levels from samples taken on April 19 and 20 (in the billionth of a gram range), point to Ryan being the victim of a tainted supplement and never receiving any performance-enhancing benefits. the microscopic quantities in your system. “We are certain that one of the natural supplements that Ryan used in the lead-up to the fight will turn out to be diluted and we are in the process of testing the supplements to determine the exact source,” he concluded.
Ryan Garcia, who has not commented on the matter, previously stated that everything is a conspiracy against him and made it clear that he is not a cheater. With the confirmation of the positive PED test, the New York State Athletic Commission must schedule a hearing for King Ry and, according to Dan Rafael, this will take place in the summer.

After hearing the news, Haney asked the New York State Athletic Commission to change the result of the fight to a victory and thus regain his undefeated record. Likewise, The Dream made it clear that he did not want any revenge on the Californian after what happened.
