"You're going to regret saying that": Sneako snaps back after Ryan Garcia goes on a tirade on X Space
Boxer and internet celebrity Ryan Garcia is known for his outspoken personality, which often leads to him expressing controversial opinions that divide netizens. Many speculated that Ryan Garcia may have been intoxicated when he made his comments on the X space specifically after a recent public statement made by his father regarding the boxer's drinking issues. His father had suggested that Garcia seek "therapy".
After Ryan's polarizing comments, Sneako reverted to him, stating he would regret making such a statement on the public platform later on. Sneako said:
"You're going to regret saying all of this..."
To this, Ryan replied:
"Guess what, guess what, I will never be touched because I'm a God, I'm a genius... I won't. I'm not regretting it, I swear to God I'm not. I've never been touched in my life."
These comments by Ryan Garcia come after he condemned a contentious statement by Mohammed Hijab, an Islamic debater and public speaker. The latter, in a conversation with Sneako, shared his opinion on pedophilia.
Further, this isn't the first time Sneako and Garcia have been in a feud with each other. The pair locked horns earlier when Garcia slammed Sneako after the latter poked fun at the idea of a Christian communion. Garcia had stated his belief that making fun of Christianity is generally thought to be okay, but the same did not apply to Islam.
