    The FaZe Clan is undergoing immense changes as multiple members of the content creator group have announced their exit. In the wake of the announcements, boxer Ryan Garcia is providing much-needed humor and amusement by announcing that he too has left FaZe Clan.

    Ryan Garcia has never been a FaZe Clan member. The boxer has, however, collaborated frequently with FaZe members. Garcia and FaZe Rug once faced off in a Super Smash Bros battle. Garcia was joking with fans and supporters of FaZe when he took to X to post that he left the group. The boxer mimicked the style of other former FaZe members who recently announced their exit from the organization.

    Right around Christmas time, creators JasonTheWeen, Adapt, Silky, Lacy and Stable Ronaldo announced their departure from FaZe Clan. The creators adopted a similar way of making the announcement, and all of them took to X to write,

    “Left @FaZeClan”

    Lacy and Adapt shared additional separate messages in which they promised to return with something new soon.

    Garcia added some much needed humor to the situation when he followed up the FaZe exits by writing on X,

    “I’m leaving faze as well been a hell of a ride guys!!!”

     

    Garcia’s reaction to the departures at FaZe Clan sparked funny reactions from netizens. A fan responded to Garcia’s post and wrote,

    “lol yea bro you left the ring fazed”

    Another person joined in, and posted in response to Garcia,

    “Same here, it’s been fun”

    One netizen pointed to the obvious, and remarked,

    “Didnt even know you was in Faze my boy lol”
