Ryan Garcia, the WBC welterweight world champion, criticized UFC for what he considers uninspiring fights.

“Ordinary MMA fans like me do not want to see what I just had to endure for 25 minutes straight. Now UFC is all about who is better at wrestling and controlling on the ground. It's boring.”

Let us recall, earlier Garcia heavily criticized the promotion's tournament card, which will take place at the White House.
