# Gervonta Davis Blasts Ryan Garcia After Injury Claims: “It’s Over For You”

Gervonta Davis beat Ryan Garcia conclusively earlier this year, but the latter says an injury played a big part.

[‘Tank’ Davis dropped and stopped Garcia in April at a catchweight of 136lbs](https://www.premierboxingchampions.com/video/davis-vs-garcia-highlights-april-22-2023-pbc-showtime-ppv). In the aftermath, [Garcia says he was weight drained and also hinted at an injury.](https://wp.boxing-social.com/news/ryan-garcia-gervtona-davis-injury/)

In an interview with [The Last Stand](https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/last-stand-podcast-with-brian-custer/id1511841694), he confirmed that theory, saying that ‘a separated rib’ from training camp affected his preparation.

> “I did go in the ring with a rib injury, a separated rib from sparring. was dehydrated and it was like one of the first shots of sparring. I didn’t even get hit hard. My rib just \[sunk\] in and I had to go to the hospital, spent there some time, and I couldn’t even run. I couldn’t do anything. It was about two weeks before the fight.
>
> “There was nothing that I could do. I decided that I wasn’t gonna pull out. Too much time \[had\] been put into this and too much things went into making this fight happen. I wasn’t gonna pull out.”

Davis caught wind of the comments and took to social media to say it was ‘over’ for his rival.

> “To be honest, I don’t know why this kid \[Garcia\] is talking. It’s over for this guy. Give him a year or two. \[He has\] no discipline, no dedication. He showed y’all on All Access, and it went right over y’all head.”

Garcia is angling for a rematch, but is one division up now, his maiden fight being a catchweight bout with Oscar Duarte.
