🚨BREAKING: Ryan Garcia vs. Floyd Mayweather verbally AGREED 🥊 Garcia says both sides have agreed to a REAL professional fight at 147 pounds for his WBC welterweight championship with Floyd’s legendary 50-0 record on the line. Nothing is signed yet, but this would be absolutely MASSIVE 🔥 [ via @kingryan ]
Ryan Garcia says he and Floyd Mayweather have verbally agreed to a professional fight at 147 pounds, though nothing has been signed. Garcia made the claim in a post on his own social media account, and Mayweather's side had not been reported as commenting on it.
According to Garcia, the bout would be a genuine pro contest rather than an exhibition. He says it would be fought at welterweight with his WBC welterweight championship at stake and with Mayweather's unbeaten 50-0 record on the line. Garcia framed the agreement as settled between both camps, but he was clear that no contract exists yet.
That distinction matters. A verbal agreement in boxing is the earliest stage of a negotiation, and it can fall apart over money, venue, broadcast partners or terms. Until paperwork is signed and a date is set, the matchup remains Garcia's account of where talks stand rather than a finalized fight.
What stands out
- Weight and belt: Garcia describes the fight as taking place at 147 pounds with his WBC welterweight title involved, which would make it a championship bout rather than a showcase.
- The record: Mayweather's 50-0 mark is the centerpiece of the pitch. Garcia says it would be at risk in a real professional fight, the kind of stakes that separate this from the exhibition-style events that have marked recent boxing crossovers.
- Status: Garcia confirms nothing is signed, so the claim should be read as one fighter's description of an informal understanding.
Mayweather has long been tied to talk of comebacks and special attractions, and any official word would have to come from his camp or from the promoters and sanctioning body involved. Neither has been cited in connection with this claim.
For now, the story rests entirely on what Garcia says was agreed. Whether it becomes a signed contract, and whether the WBC title, the weight and the professional status all hold up in a final deal, are details that remain to be confirmed by the parties involved.
