Ever since Logan Paul decided to criticize Ryan Garcia’s erratic tweets before the Devin Haney fight, their bromance seems to have come to a screeching halt. So much so that in a recent podcast, Ryan Garcia had only five words to describe his disdain towards Logan Paul. However, the question is, what led up to all of this drama?

In the past, ‘King Ry’ has repeatedly attacked Logan and KSI’s sports hydration drink, ‘Prime.’During one of his podcast appearances, he even said that he would continue doing so until the brand fell apart. It was KSI’s statement on Ryan Garcia that prompted Logan Paul to become Garcia’s unwitting victim in the Fresh n Fit podcast on May 10.

On May 10, Happy Punch shared a clip of KSI speaking about Garcia during one of his YouTube videos. Highlighting Garcia’s failed drug test and missed weight before the Devin Haney fight, the YouTuber didn’t miss the opportunity to criticize the Victorville native. He said, “F**k Ryan Garcia. I mean. I never liked him anyway. You got to remember he was overweight, like there was a weight limit and he was over it.”

“Still, they fought, but it’s just shi**y behavior. Fair play, he won. There are rumors that he allegedly took steroids. F**k him and everything he stands for. He’s an absolute twat. I’d love to knock him out,” KSI continued. To this, Garcia initially responded on X, writing, “I will beat the leaving dog s**t outta you. You will never ever be the same if we fought. Keep your mouth quiet.”

This, of course, wasn’t enough! During his appearance in the Fresh and Fit podcast on the same day, the host brought up the same topic, probing Garcia for a spicy response. So, Garcia said, “Logan Paul is a b**ch…,” as he sang the phrase like an opera singer. Why Garcia chose to unload on Logan instead of KSI remains a mystery only he can unravel. That doesn’t mean Garcia’s attacks on KSI were over.

On the very next day after this situation unfolded, Garcia hopped on his Instagram profile to send a chilling warning to KSI. While sharing KSI’s statement about him, Garcia wrote, “I WILL END YOU IN EVERY WORST WAY POSSIBLE STOP PLAYING WITH ME. Seen you in public many times and no action was taken. @ksi btw PRIME SUCKS.”

A while later, Garcia came back to take yet another jab in the comment section of the post. He wrote, “I can’t miss that forehead, that’s all I’m saying.” In the meantime, ‘The Flash’ is awaiting his B-Sample test results on May 22, which will dictate his fate in the sport! Despite many branding Garcia the culprit, he has maintained his innocence. 

By the looks of things, beefing with KSI and Logan Paul has become a favorite pastime for Ryan Garcia. While it’s unlikely to produce a fight, this beef has proven to be free entertainment for the fans. What did you think of Garcia’s five-word take on Logan Paul?
