Ryan Garcia Disrespectfully Eats An Egg During Press Conference To Mock Conor Benn

Zuffa Boxing

Ryan Garcia poked a bit of fun at Conor Benn at their press conference.

On Thursday, Garcia and Benn faced off in front of media and fans for the first time to promote their upcoming fight.

During the press conference, Garcia bizarrely pulled out an egg and began eating in front of Benn’s face.

“He has some familiarity with eggs, I thought it was fair that I would eat some today.”

Garcia was referring to Benn claiming he ate too many eggs as the reason why he tested positive for Clomiphene.

Conor Benn has been cleared of a failed drugs test because he ate too many eggs. The World Boxing Council absolved the British fighter of an intentional doping offence after ruling a “highly-elevated consumption of eggs” was considered a “reasonable explanation” for his adverse finding.

The catchweight bout with Chris Eubank Jr scheduled for October 2022 was cancelled after trace amounts of a fertility drug, Clomiphene – which is known to elevate testosterone levels in men – were found in Benn’s urine.

UFC security eventually took another egg from Garcia so that he wouldn’t use it as a weapon during his faceoff against Benn,
