The punches just keep coming for Ryan Garcia.
Months after it was reported that the professional boxer tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs, he was expelled from the WBC over racial slurs, Mauricio Sulaiman announced via X on July 4, 2024. His dating life has been another source of controversy.
He has been linked to several women since his divorce from Andrea Celina, the mother of his two children, Bela and Henry Leo.

Who is Ryan Garcia dating?
The boxing star has been photographed with several beautiful women following his win against Haney. Among them is Grace Boor, a model and a regular on the pageant circuit.
She is also a social media influencer — she has nearly 3 million followers on Instagram alone.
The pair were photographed together around May 2024 holding hands as they hung out on a beach in Miami. However, let's be clear — dating and being in a relationship are two very different things.
After Ryan and Grace hung out, TMZ got the scoop on their status.
"This was our first time seeing each other in person and we just hit it off," Boor said. "It was just like an instant click." But intense chemistry wasn't enough for Grace to consider him as boyfriend material.
She explained that she turned Ryan down after he asked her out.
"I said, 'I can't do that,'" Boor added. "Because he has, like, all these girls and stuff and I'm not about it."
Grace continued, "So, maybe if he changed, maybe the answer would change. But, I don't know what's going on and that's his business."
Ryan Garcia announced in July 2024 that he is dating singer Malu Trevejo.
It appears things didn't work out between Ryan and Grace, as the boxer took to Instagram on July 4, 2024, to announce that that he has snagged himself a girlfriend. "Ladies and Gentlemen man my Girlfriend," the boxer wrote alongside a photo of him and Malu Trevejo, 21, whom he also tagged in the post.
Malu is a Cuban-American media personality and singer who has amassed a major following on social media, with over 11 million followers on Instagram alone.
To his surprise, fans weren't exactly celebrating the news. One person commented "Shes Everyones Girlfriend," while another chimed in, "this makes him instantly unattractive." Either way, Ryan and Malu seem pretty excited about their newfound romance.
As a quick refresher, Ryan tested positive for the performance-enhancing drug ostarine on the day before and after his fight with Haney.
"Everybody knows that I don't cheat," Ryan said in a video posted on Twitter.
"Never taken a steroid. ... I don't even know where to get steroids. ... I barely take supplements. Big lies, I beat his a--."
Grace defended Ryan by captioning a photo of them in Miami with, “@kingryan DID NOT CHEAT.”
Ryan Garcia has been linked to numerous other women.
Ryan may have a few other women on his roster. And no surprise here: they’re all knockouts. He reportedly proposed to Australian adult film worker, Savannah Bond, before his recent fight.
“SHE SAID YESS!!!!!!. I'M SO HAPPY AND MOTIVATED GOING INTO MY FIGHT NOW,” he wrote on Twitter.
However, Ryan admitted to TMZ that it was all fake and he was just caught up in the moment.
He has also been linked to Alexa Dellanos, the daughter of TV host, Myrka Dellanos.
Needless to say, Ryan doesn't seem to have trouble attracting women, but he does seem to struggle with keeping them. In fact, a few fans suggested in the comments section of his Instagram post debuting Malu as his girlfriend that this relationship will only last "5 weeks." Only time will tell!
