MAGA Boxer Ryan Garcia Says He’s Done With Donald Trump For 1 Reason

MAGA boxer Ryan Garcia pulled no punches with a very public ditching of Donald Trump this weekend.

Garcia, who has previously declared his love for the president and even shadowboxed to him, wrote on X, formerly Twitter, that he was “reclining my past support for Donald Trump.”

The pugilist, expelled from the World Boxing Council in 2024 for using racial slurs during a livestream and who has come under fire for anti-LGBTQ comments, suggested any association with the late, convicted *** offender Jeffrey Epstein was unacceptable following the latest release of documents related to the financier, records that critics say Trump’s Justice Department has slow-walked.

This is my public declaration and announcement, I’m reclining my past support for Donald Trump.

Anyone that was involved in any thing to do with that island and what they were doing, I just can’t support in anyway.

Children need to be protected, everyone knew better ****…

Trump was a longtime acquaintance of Epstein and has denied any wrongdoing.

Garcia had previously criticized the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in Los Angeles in June 2025, but stopped short at the time of fully withdrawing his support.

“I may have voted for Trump, but I can’t stay silent about what’s happening with ICE in LA,” Garcia wrote. “These aren’t just ‘illegals’ or statistics — they’re people.” Garcia was born and raised in Victorville, California. His grandparents were born in Mexico.
