Ryan Garcia's recent online antics have taken a wild turn, with his latest homophobic tirade against Eminem being just one of his many controversies. 

The boxer recently expressed his disdain for "The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce)" on Sunday (July 14) with a series of inflammatory tweets. 

"Eminem is a satanist," Garcia tweeted after agreeing with Candace Owens' criticism of the Detroit rapper. 

"It’s not even debatable. I always thought he was overrated, but hey that’s just my opinion. Wait, Eminem is a homo? Eminem=Gay. For the record, I don’t care if Eminem is Gay. Nor do I care if he was straight. Just keep that devil shit he’s doing in his music videos away from kids."

Garcia then shared a picture of Eminem dressed as Britney Spears for the "Real Slim Shady" music video, captioning it "Feminem." 

He added, "You can’t pay me enough to wear a dress and heels. If I ever do, just remember I didn’t want to do it. I’d go down fighting before I start doing all that." 

The boxer also criticized Eminem's lyrics, stating that people let the rapper get away with controversial content, while he faces backlash for his opinions.

Despite this, Garcia's feud with Eminem is only a small part of his recent troubles. 

He has issued multiple apologies for his behavior, including to his ex-wife Andrea Celina for allegedly trashing her home and verbally abusing her. 

"I came on here just to say I'm sorry," Garcia stated. 

"Andrea, you're the mother of my children and somebody I'll always have love and respect for. I retract all my statements about her. She never stole money from me, she never did wrong by me, she never cheated on me. We weren't together, so right there, she's not a cheater. She's a great woman. In the next couple of months, you're gonna see a change."

Additionally, Garcia's previous Twitter rant included racial slurs, mockery of George Floyd, and offensive remarks against various groups. 

This led to his expulsion from the World Boxing Council amid his current PED suspension. 

"Exercising my authority as president of the WBC, I am hereby expelling Ryan Garcia from any activity with our organization," Mauricio Sulaiman stated. 

"We reject any form of discrimination. I fear for Ryan's well-being. He has declined multiple attempts for our help with mental health and substance abuse."
