Ryan Garcia is spotted for first time since his Beverley Hills arrest as troubled boxer heads to Las Vegas nightclub with new mystery woman

Ryan Garcia has been spotted for the first time since his arrest last week when the boxer went to a Las Vegas nightclub with a mystery woman.

Garcia, who failed a drug test after his surprise victory over Devin Haney, was seen walking hand-in-hand with the woman through a casino at the Fountainbleau hotel.

He wore a partially unbuttoned white shirt as he smiled next to his companion.

According to TMZthe boxer was previously arrested for misdemeanor vandalism at the Waldorf Astoria hotel in Beverly Hills his lawyer confirmed he was later released.

He was taken into custody last Saturday afternoon after apparently damaging hotel property, including the room he was staying in and the hallway. It is claimed the damage was worth $15,000.

TMZ claimed that Garcia was “apparently under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs,” but added that he was cooperating with authorities during his arrest. The publication includes a video of him being arrested, shirtless and wearing a helmet.

TMZ also reported earlier last week that Garcia was subjected to a welfare check by police at the same hotel after receiving a call from a concerned family member.

Officers apparently determined that he was doing well and that was the end of the case.

Garcia’s outing with the mystery woman in Vegas comes amid tumult in his personal and professional life.

In December 2023, he divorced his wife Andrea Celina immediately after the birth of their second child.

He was linked to several women soon after and even appeared to propose to porn star Savannah Bond before his fight with Haney.

However, he was spotted with model Grace Boor immediately after his surprise win in Miami.

More worrying was when a social media post appeared in March claiming he was dead on his X account.

The boxer produced several disturbing online rants ahead of his fight in April, at one point claiming to have been raped by a family member at a young age.

He also claimed that he was tied up in the forest by “the elites” and forced to witness child rape.

At the professional level, he was almost four pounds overweight for his match against WBC super lightweight champion Haney, meaning he did not win that title despite his victory that night.

It later emerged that Garcia had tested positive for the banned substance Ostarine the day before and the day of the fight, before his B sample tests returned the same result.

Haney has called for the outcome to be overturned as a disqualification victory for him, while Garcia and his team have maintained his innocence.

Garcia also asked for prayers on Wednesday as he revealed that his mother, Lisa, was battling breast cancer.
