Conor Benn: Ryan Garcia throws tantrums on social media
Conor Benn has accused Ryan Garcia of throwing tantrums on social media as talk of a potential welterweight clash continues. The British fighter took aim at Garcia's online behaviour in a recent interview.
“He throws his toys out of the pram on social media, throwing little tantrums”

What Conor Benn said
Benn has been calling for high-profile fights since returning to the ring following a lengthy absence. Garcia, meanwhile, has competed primarily at lightweight and super lightweight, though he has hinted at moving up in weight. Both fighters have used social media to target opponents and build momentum for future bouts.
What it moves
The comments suggest Benn is positioning himself as the composed party in any potential negotiation with Garcia. Whether the American responds to the jab or ignores it could shape how quickly talks progress. For now, no fight between the two has been announced.
