CONOR MCGREGOR has called for Ryan Garcia to be given a lifetime ban following his failed drug tests.
The former interim WBC lightweight champion tested positive for the banned performance-enhancing drug Ostarine before and after his shock win over Devin Haney last month.
Traces of the SARM (selective androgen receptive modulator) – which can build lean muscle mass – were discovered in Garcia’s final pre-fight tests.
Garcia, 25, has denied intentionally ingesting the substance, the discovery of which will likely see his win overturned to a No Contest.
But that hasn’t stopped McGregor from seemingly ending their friendship by calling for him to never be allowed to box again.
In a now-deleted X post, the UFC superstar wrote: “Cheated the weight and was juiced, lifetime ban. Sad to see, sad to say. Sad and a bit sick.”
McGregor offered Garcia words of support after his defeat to Gervonta Davis last April but wants nothing more to do with ‘King’ following his positive tests.
He roared: “Don’t come near me if I see you ever Ryan Garcia. I am actually disgusted.”
The Notorious then lumped UFC men’s bantamweight champion Sean O’Malley into his rant as he’d also tested positive for Ostarine in 2018.
He added: “This Ostarine it reminds me of Sean O’Malley was on that as well.
“I don’t like this, I’ll bust yous both up, do yous want a spar? I will set flights right now for you both for a full on spar each.
“Hotel, Black Forge Inn the lot. #letssparomalley and #garcia two little Ostarine heads l’ll ride you both like yous are ostriches.”
WBC super-lightweight champ Haney believes Garcia “cheated and disrespected” the sport of boxing with his failed tests.
And the American’s efforts that fateful night in Brooklyn have garnered the full respect of McGregor.
“Wtf is up,” McGregor said of Garcia. “What do you think you are at?
“If I was Haney’s dad, you’re dead no matter what for doing that. Crazy.
“What the f**k happened to you, you little fool.
“Get your head together cos I gonna smash it in with elbows if you don’t.
“Fair play Devin well done. Your performance has just become even more heroic! Bravo.”
The New York State Athletic Commission will await the result of Garcia’s B samples before beginning a disciplinary process.
He’ll likely face a lengthy ban if the NYSAC deem him to have intentionally ingested the PED, a suggestion he’s vehemently denied.
In a clip captioned, “Fake news like if I was Donald Trump,” Garcia insisted he’s ever cheated.
“I came on here to address this bull f*****g s**t claim that I cheated,” he said.
“Everybody knows that I don’t cheat.”
