Midnight Mania! ‘King’ Of The Jungle?

Welcome to Midnight Mania!

Ryan Garcia isn’t pretending to be crazy anymore, but that doesn’t mean the monkeying around is through.

“King” shocked social media with a bizarre video (watch above) of the boxing star serenading an orangutang! Garcia can be seen rapping along to his own recent release — a song titled “Blessed, Highly Favored” — while the orangutan hangs out and eats grapes in the driver’s seat of a car (presumably Garcia’s?).

Reactions amongst fans were mixed. Quite a few fans admitted to finding the stunt funny, while many noted that the orangutan appeared unimpressed by his performance. He received several comparisons to other celebrities and their unusual animal pals, like Mike Tyson and his tiger.

Oddly enough, Garcia also ran into a UFC fighter while hanging out with orangutan. Lightweight talent Jared Gordon posted his own clip, showing both he and Garcia holding hands with the primate before shaking hands with each other.

In the ring, Garcia is just a couple weeks removed from handing Devin Haney the first loss of his professional career (watch it) and making an insane amount of money in the process. Unfortunately, Garcia also failed a drug test for multiple substances immediately after the victory. To his credit, however, Garcia has already been cleared on one substance, but he still has to prove his innocence in regards to Ostarine usage.
