Ryan Garcia has compared himself to Britney Spears and Donald Trump, a day after being arrested in Los Angeles on allegations of vandalism.

Garcia, 25, was released on Sunday after police arrested him for felony vandalism at the Waldorf Astoria hotel in Beverly Hills. He was also reportedly taken to hospital for evaluation and treatment, with the incident the latest worrying episode in a tumultuous year for the boxer.

He took to X on Sunday afternoon saying: 'Kinda funny both trump and I are in jail. I don’t know if he is in jail but I know he got convicted. This sucks, But I love Jesus I will be okay.'

In a separate post, he wrote: 'I feel like I’m Ryan Spears. Aka Britney Spears. This sucks. I never hurt anyone I’ve only ever loved everyone prayed for people. And try to make a change in this cruel world. I love you Christ Jesus Amen.'

Before those posts, Garcia appeared to tweet while being evaluated, writing: I’m worried. have to be at this weird hospital and they are trying to give me medicine and they have me on a hold for who knows how long, they will determine Pray for me God help me.'

He also released a statement through his representatives that said: 'It’s always love. 

'Thanks to my fans for always supporting me. Ya’ll know I’ve been dealing with incredible stress, pressure and now the devastating news of my mom’s health. Love and compassion wins. Always.'

Earlier this week, Garcia said his mother has been diagnosed with breast cancer.

TMZ claims that Garcia was 'seemingly under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs' but add that he cooperated with authorities during his arrest. The publication has video of him being arrested, where he is shirtless and wearing a helmet.

The 25-year-old beat Devin Haney earlier this year but his erratic conduct in the buildup led many  to question if he was mentally stable enough to fight. He failed a doping test after his surprise victory.

TMZ reported earlier this week that Garcia was subject to a welfare check by police at the same hotel after a call from a concerned family member. Officers apparently determined that he was fine and it was the end of the matter.

But his arrest on Saturday in California is the latest concerning instalment for Garcia in tumultuous few months.

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

Then, heading into his much-anticipated clash with Haney in April, he sparked major fears over the state of his mental health with a series of disturbing and bizarre online tirades, including one in which he alleged that his throat had been slit.

Garcia also claimed to have been raped at an early age by a family member, while alleging that he was tied up in the woods by 'the elites' and forced to watch child rape.

Amid concerns over his state of mind, he came in almost four pounds overweight for his grudge match against WBC super-lightweight champion Haney, meaning he did not collect that title despite his victory on the night.

And following his points triumph in Brooklyn, it later emerged Garcia had tested positive for banned substance Ostarine the day before and the day of the fight, before his B-sample tests provided the same result.

However, his team claim the B-sample results prove their man is innocent, insisting he is simply the victim of supplement contamination.
