The lightweight boxing champion Ryan Garcia (21-0, 18KO), the comeback opponent has been basically determined, according to relevant reports, he will appear in Las Vegas on April 2, the opponent is the former IBF super featherweight boxing champion Twen Farmer (30-5-1, 6KO), when the match will be broadcast live by DAZN.
Playing against Famo is not just Garcia's comeback battle, but also the other side's comeback battle, because the 31-year-old Farmer has not played in the stage for more than two years since the point loss to Joseph Diaz in January 2020.
For many boxing fans, Garcia's choice of Famo is somewhat disappointing, because from a state point of view, Famo is difficult to pose a threat to Garcia, but considering Garcia's actual situation, it is a good choice to fight with Famo, after all, Garcia is not short away from the field, and there are problems in terms of mental health, so he needs an opponent like Famo.
The only factor of instability is that even if the game is finalized, will Garcia still give up halfway? It should be known that in November last year, Garcia finalized the battle with Joseph Diaz, but as the confrontation approached, he suddenly withdrew from the game due to an accidental injury during training, but according to people familiar with the matter, Garcia was still unable to concentrate on preparing for the battle due to psychological problems. Garcia's last match was last January, after being knocked down by British star Luke Campbell.
Officials have not yet finalized the battle between Garcia and Farmo, but Farmer has leaked relevant secrets in the information released this week. In a tweeted news about the match against Garcia, Farmer replied: This time, I'm not going to drain myself of my strength by controlling my weight, I'm going to use the right method, most people don't know the story behind the scenes, they only see the night of the battle, and then there will be a better Fammer.
Shortly thereafter, Farmer posted a separate message suggesting that his battle with Garcia had been finalized: Famo vs Garcia, I like it!
Is there any suspense in the battle between Farmer vs Garcia? I'm afraid the suspense is not big! In addition to Farmer's long-term failure to compete, he needs to be upgraded to compete with Garcia, which makes Farmer more disadvantaged in hardness, and Farmer is 1.68 meters tall and has an arm span of 1.70 meters, while Garcia's height and arm span are 1.78 meters, and the gap is still quite obvious.
Objectively speaking, Farmer's technique is still good, and he is a left-handed, but he also has a disadvantage, that is, his strength is too poor. Farmer's knockdown rate is only 16%, and given the situation, it is difficult for him to pose a threat to Garcia. If Famo wants to create miracles, he must use his experience and skills to maneuver around, but Garcia is not an idle person, his speed is extremely fast, his talent and technology are underestimated to a certain extent, and the attack power is needless to say, personally predicting that Garcia will have a 90% chance of winning the victory, the only point to see is whether he can win the game by knocking down.
