Ryan Garcia clearly wasn't sweating his flunked drug test in the hours before it became known to the public ... 'cause TMZ Sports has obtained video of him partying hard at an L.A. hotspot on Tuesday night -- seemingly without a care in the world.

Garcia hit up Bootsy Bellows in West Hollywood at around midnight -- roughly 20 hours before it was revealed he had Ostarine in his system the day before his huge upset win over Devin Haney -- and he danced at his table with no signs of worry.

We're told by one person in attendance that Garcia appeared to be in great spirits the entire time he was there -- sippin' on tequila ... and even taking selfies with other clubgoers.

12:15 PM PT -- Ryan Garcia is firing back ... saying he'll break Conor McGregor's "weak ass ankle" if the two ever cross paths -- which is a reference to an injury Conor suffered against Dustin Poirier in 2021.

"You ran from being tested bc you were on Roids," Garcia posted on X ... while also mocking his recent movie with Jake Gyllenhaal. "Roadhouse or ROIDRAGE."

"FUDGE CONNOR CACA BRAIN"

Ryan Garcia placed blame for his failed PED test squarely at the feet of Victor Conte ... but the former BALCO mastermind turned anti-doping advocate says that's pure BS, telling TMZ Sports he had absolutely nothing to do with the flunked test!

"His conspiracy theory is completely wrong and debunked. I have nothing to do with this. I'm completely independent of VADA," Conte told us on Thursday, addressing Garcia's allegation.

If you missed it, after news broke that King Ry flunked multiple tests for Ostarine, the 25-year-old fighter lodged this allegation.

3:07 PM PT -- Paige is now firing back at Danis ... unloading on the guy and claiming his whole Vegas affair story is complete B.S.

Former Bellator MMA star Austin Vanderford just publicly called out Dillon Danis for a fight ... telling Logan Paul's nemesis he's ready to throw hands for going after his wife, Paige VanZant.

The drama started earlier this week ... when PVZ claimed Danis is not a "real fighter" during an interview for her upcoming Misfits boxing match against Elle Brooke.

Danis got wind of Paige's comments ... and clapped back by threatening to air some dirty laundry that he claimed would ruin her marriage.

"How fast they forget!" Danis (2-0 in MMA) said on X. "Haha, relax, Paigey baby, just because I didn’t wife you doesn’t mean you have to be petty. Don’t make me bring up our two trips to Vegas and ruin your marriage."

Enter Vanderford (11-2) ... who came to his partner's defense on Thursday -- telling Danis he's willing to settle things in the cage or the ring.

"Dillon, guy ...," Vanderford said on Instagram. "Let's just fight. Paige's comments seemed to upset you. We are the same weight. We can box or do whatever you want."

Vanderford already predicted Danis' potential responses ... saying the guy will probably say he doesn't have enough of a following to make it worth his time.

Danis is known for being ruthless on social media -- as we previously reported, Paul's fiancée, Nina Agdal, sued him leading up to last year's fight ... saying the incessant trolling and posting about the Sports Illustrated model resulted in humiliation, emotional distress and reputational harm.

5/2 -- 6:00 AM PT -- Devin Haney addressed the reports of Ryan Garcia's test results ... saying it's "unfortunate Ryan cheated and disrespected both the fans and the sport of boxing by fighting dirty and breaking positive not once, but twice."

Haney -- who said he is "an advocate for clean fighting" -- added Garcia owes fans an apology ... as his recent posts suggest he finds it all to be funny.

"We put our lives on the line to entertain people for a living," Haney said. "You don't play boxing."

Canelo Álvarez pelea el sábado, pero tal vez habrá un cambio de oponente, porque Saúl recibió los insultos de Oscar De La Hoya, cuando el legendario luchador se sentó a pocos metros de distancia.

"Es un puto idiota. Eso es lo que digo. Es un maldito imbécil. Trata de llamar la atención por él, no por Munguía. Es un puto idiota. Le roba a sus luchadores. P*** p***y. Motherf****r", dijo Álvarez -de 33 años- arremetiendo en la conferencia de prensa de Las Vegas pocos días antes de su pelea con Jaime Munguía.

¿Qué enfadó a Canelo? Bueno, las dos leyendas del boxeo anteriormente trabajaron juntos durante años como promotor y peleador, pero obviamente las cosas terminaron mal.

Canelo Alvarez is fighting on Saturday, but perhaps an opponent change is in order ... 'cause Saul went scorched earth on Oscar De La Hoya, as the legendary fighter sat just feet away.

"He's a f***ing asshole. That's what I say. He's a f***ing asshole. He tries to get attention for him, not Munguia. He's a f***ing asshole. He steals [from his] fighters. F***ing p***y. Motherf****r," 33-year-old Alvarez said, lashing out at the Las Vegas press conference just days before his fight with Jaime Munguia.

What pissed Canelo off? Well, the two boxing legends previously worked together for years as promoter and fighter ... but things ended poorly, and there's obviously no love lost.

The fighting world is rallying around Francis Ngannou following the death of his son ... with many combat sports stars -- including Manny Pacquiao and Anthony Joshua -- sending their prayers and condolences his way on Monday.

The heartfelt notes were left on Ngannou's Instagram page ... in the comment section of a post where the former UFC champ mourned the loss of Kobe, his 15-month-old son.

"How do you deal with such a thing?" Ngannou said in the post. "How can you live with it?"

Jake Paul's fighting Mike Tyson in July, and many people are worried about The Problem Child's safety. But, it's Iron Mike who should actually be concerned, according to the legendary Oscar De la Hoya.

TMZ Sports ran into the Hall of Fame boxer in New York City last week, and we asked ODLH about the upcoming scrap between 57-year-old Tyson and 27-year-old Paul.

"I'm gonna pray for Mike Tyson, 'cause I love Mike Tyson. I think Jake Paul, look, he's a real fighter. He really is. It's a dangerous fight. Mike Tyson, be careful, please," De La Hoya told us.

Jake Paul's boxing match against Mike Tyson will be the real deal -- the two sides just announced their upcoming fight is a sanctioned professional bout.

Paul's Most Valuable Promotions shared the news on Monday ... saying the big event will count on their official career records.

The heavyweight fight will consist of 8 2-minute rounds ... and they'll wear 14-oz. gloves (instead of the typical 10-oz. mitts).

Lil Pump está eligiendo un bando para la gran pelea entre Jake Paul y Mike Tyson y le dijo a TMZ Sports que piensa que el Niño Problema, ¡¡¡va a vencer a la leyenda del boxeo!!!

"Siento que Jake es más rápido, es más joven", dijo Pump sobre el evento del 20 de julio, mientras estaba en LAX. "Obviamente, Mike tiene experiencia, pero Jake va a hacer lo suyo. Va a ser una pelea muy interesante, pero esta es de Jake".

El rapero de "Gucci Gang" sabe de primera mano de lo que es capaz la ex estrella de Disney, de 27 años. Después de todo, recibió un golpe en el hígado después de grabar un episodio del podcast "BS w / Jake Paul", a principios de este mes.

Lil Pump is picking a side ahead of the big Jake Paul and Mike Tyson fight ... telling TMZ Sports he thinks the Problem Child is gonna beat the boxing legend!!

"I feel like Jake is just faster, he's younger," Pump said of the July 20 event while at LAX. "Obviously, Mike's got experience, but Jake's gonna do what Jake's gonna do. It's gonna be a very interesting fight ... but Jake got this one."

The "Gucci Gang" rapper knows firsthand what the 27-year-old former Disney star is capable of -- after all, he took a vicious liver shot after recording an episode of the "BS w/ Jake Paul" podcast earlier this month.

Le'Veon Bell hasn't fought in a year, but the former NFL superstar has been in the lab ... and with a big fight scheduled for next month, the 3x Pro Bowler says he's pumped to show he's an "elite" boxer!

32-year-old Bell joined Michael Babcock on the "TMZ Sports" TV show (airs nightly on FS1) ... and previewed next month's scrap against influencer/boxer Tristan Hamm (1-0, 1 KO) in Houston, Texas, and Le'Veon's ready to rock.

"He's just the opponent they put in front me," the former running back said, adding, "I gotta go out here showcase my skills on this opponent."

Eddie Hearn isn't blaming Devin Haney's footwear choice for his loss to Ryan Garcia ... but he does seem to regret the move just a little bit -- telling TMZ Sports it was "maybe" not a good idea for "The Dream" to rock Fear of God boots for the fight.

Many boxing fans took notice of Haney's Ugg boot-esque kicks for last Saturday's bout ... speculating whether he had enough support to compete against Garcia.

Hearn shuts down all that talk ... saying Haney was well-equipped in the ring.

Ryan Garcia might act unhinged on social media, but the boxing superstar couldn't be further from that in real life ... so says model Grace Boor, who tells TMZ Sports "King Ry" was the ultimate gentleman throughout their time together this week.

As we previously reported, the 25-1 fighter was spotted with several gorgeous women in Florida following his massive win over Devin Haney on Saturday ... one of them being Boor, a social media superstar with millions of followers.

We spoke with Boor after Ryan flew to Miami to be with her ... and she's glad he made the trip -- 'cause they had a ton of fun.
