Ryan has often referenced God when discussing each his personal struggles and his profession ambitions, leading some fans to embrace what they call his \u201cFear the Lord\u201d mindset.<\/p>\n<p>To Ryan, Benn\u2019s use of the devil emoji wasn\u2019t just bizarre trash talk.<\/p>\n<p>Boxing has seen several fighters openly discuss the role faith has played of their lives and careers. George Foreman became a minister after retiring, before eventually returning to reclaim the heavyweight title. Manny Pacquiao has regularly spoken about Christianity, while Tyson Fury has credited his faith with helping him through personal struggles outside the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan didn\u2019t treat Benn\u2019s post as bizarre trash talk.<\/p>\n<p>As Ryan has turn into more vocal about his beliefs, he viewed Benn\u2019s use of the devil emoji in a different way than many fighters may need. As an alternative of simply talking in regards to the fight, Ryan suggested Benn had chosen the unsuitable side.<\/p>\n<p>If Ryan and Benn eventually meet within the ring, their rivalry may involve greater than the same old exchanges about titles, money, and national pride.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan has already made it clear how he sees it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou tousled using the devil emoji fam ima remind you to not use a demon against me after you might be out cold WATCH \ud83e\udd2b,\u201d Ryan wrote.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sabox-authors\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-wrap\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"author\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-tab saboxplugin-tab-about\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-desc\">\n<div itemprop=\"description\">\n<p data-start=\"182\" data-end=\"497\">Dan Ambrose is a boxing journalist at Boxing News 24, recognized for his direct evaluation and extensive coverage of the worldwide fight landscape.
