Mini bio
How it started.
Ryan grew up in Victorville, California, and began training with his father, Henry, at seven. He turned professional at 17 and made his Golden Boy debut in December 2016, on the undercard of Bernard Hopkins’ final fight.
From clips to championship fights.
His online audience follows boxing alongside the personality around it. In a BoxingScene interview, Ryan described posting speed drills and body-shot challenges designed to travel across social media. His breakthrough title came in January 2021, when he recovered from a knockdown to stop Luke Campbell in round seven and win the WBC interim lightweight belt.
A career with turns.
Ryan faced Gervonta Davis in 2023 and lost by seventh-round knockout. His April 2024 bout with Devin Haney was ultimately recorded as a no-contest after a failed drug test and a one-year suspension. He returned against Rolando Romero in May 2025, losing a unanimous decision.
The next chapter.
In February 2026 he beat Mario Barrios to become WBC welterweight champion, then stopped Conor Benn in September for his first defense. Away from the ring, his own channel also features music, including the 2024 video “Blessed, Highly Favored” with Fooly Faime and Gaiinz.
