The 22-year-old internet boxing sensation posted a video on his Instagram to show his progress. Garcia, who is undefeated, will fight Campbell on December 5 in a fight with high stakes. It will be a new test for the talented youngster. However, the recent reports may have shifted the focus away from the fight.

He looks sharp and ready for possibly the biggest test of his career. The two have been going back and forth at each other on social media.
