Garcia Eyes Unification After Benn | Boxing News
Description
Welterweight boxing is heating up with two blockbuster title fights on the horizon: Rolando “Rolly” Romero defends his WBA belt against Teofimo Lopez on August 22, followed by Ryan Garcia’s WBC title showdown with Conor Benn just weeks later on September 12. Garcia sees beating Benn as his golden ticket—potentially setting up a unification bout with Lopez, whom he believes has the edge over Romero. With a history of sparring between Romero and Lopez, Garcia thinks their hesitancy could play into his hands. He also hinted at a possible rematch with Romero if he wins, but for now, his sights are set on dominating Benn during Mexican Independence Weekend—a fight he believes could redefine his career and cement his legacy in the sport.
