Ryan Garcia and Oscar De La Hoya's relationship has hit another rough patch. The young boxer recently lashed out at his promoter on social media, demanding big money deals.

Garcia joined De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions in late 2016. But the last year and a half has been rocky for the partnership. Garcia failed a doping test before his April 2024 fight with Devin Haney, causing a stir in the boxing world.

On May 2, Garcia faced Rolando 'Rolly' Romero for the WBA 'regular' world welterweight champion title in Times Square, New York City. The fight ended in a unanimous decision defeat for Garcia.

Now, Garcia has taken to social media with a message for De La Hoya:

"Don't ever hit me up unless you have a $20 million deal for me. Okay, Oscar? Don't ever call me unless you have a $20 million fight. Do you understand? Get off my f**** phone, Oscar."

Garcia posted this after De La Hoya apparently disturbed him at a party. The boxer's contract with Golden Boy Promotions runs until 2026, which might make for an uncomfortable few years if things don't improve.

Garcia had surgery on his right hand at the end of May and is currently recovering. There were rumors of a rematch with Rolando Romero, but De La Hoya has squashed those, saying they're taking Garcia in a different direction.

The future of this once-promising partnership remains uncertain. Garcia's demands and De La Hoya's plans seem to be at odds, leaving fans wondering what's next for the young boxer.
