    Ryan Garcia returns to gym and break to help with mental health as future star reveals ‘depression hit me like a truck’

    RYAN GARCIA has returned to the gym having taken a break following a battle with mental health as he admitted: ‘Depression hit me like a truck’. The lightweight sensation has been open about his brave fight with personal demons and showed support for others in the same situation.
    Ryan Garcia returned to the gym having taken a break following a battle with mental health
    Ryan Garcia was forced to pull out of facing Javier Fortuna
    His struggles were so bad recently, he was forced to pull out of facing Javier Fortuna, which was initially scheduled for July 9.
    But almost three weeks after withdrawing from the fight, Garcia posted a video training again and provided a positive yet honest message.
    He captioned on Instagram: “Thank you to everyone showing there (sic) support!
    “With the help of my support team and my family, I’m making steps forward.
    “Why anxiety and depression hit me like a truck and why I’m still recovering I’ll never know.
    “But I’m trying to cope with the issues I’m having! This bag is my anxiety and I’m swinging with my full intent to destroy it!!”
    Garcia, 22, was last in the ring in January as he stopped Luke Campbell, 33, in round seven with a perfect left hook to the body.
    The two have since recorded a podcast together and Campbell was on hand to offer his former opponent support in dealing with his anxiety.

    He told talkSPORT: “As a man, you’re supposed to be the dominant strong alpha and it’s hard for guys to talk about your feelings.
    “The likes of Ryan opening up and saying he’s got to work on himself and things like that, it takes a hell of a lot of balls to come out and say that. 
    “I’ve made comments in the media that he’s seen. I’ve shared his post of what’s he’s put up.
    “I hope he’s alright and comes back feeling better in himself. I’ve done that and he’s seen it. He knows he’s got support there.
    “People could have everything, but still have mental health problems.
    “They could have enough money in the bank to have no problems, good family and all that, but people still go through phases of mental health problems.”

    The Hertfordshire-born fighter has been in big domestic bouts with the likes of Andy Lee, John Ryder, Chris Eubank Jr and Martin Murray.
    Saunders also beat fearsome middleweight puncher David Lemieux out in Canada back in 2017.

    He was reportedly paid £715,000 for his efforts against Lemueux, who he ousted on points.
    What is his purse for fighting Canelo Alvarez?
    Saunders will receive a career-high pay day for his fight with Canelo Alvarez, who will rake in around £25m for the fight.
    And will make £3.8m all in all for his fight with Alvarez, meaning he is set to triple his net worth in one night.
    Alvarez is boxing’s top attraction and the highest-paid fighter in the world.
    Before moving to sports streaming service DAZN, the four-division king was a pay-per-view headliner.
    His nine box office fights, including against Floyd Mayweather, Amir Khan and Gennady Golovkin, saw him pocket around £80m. More
