The anticipation for the upcoming bout between two rising stars is quite high. A promising clash is in order for the established champion Devin Haney and the charismatic contender Ryan Garcia. While both are young, their journeys in the sport paint contrasting pictures, setting the stage for a fascinating clash of styles and aspirations. Undisputed champion Haney has already earned his pound-for-pound stripes.

He dominated the lightweight division and recently made a successful debut at super-lightweight. Garcia, on the other hand, is the embodiment of a rising star in boxing. However, he faces the daunting task of knocking a former undisputed champion off his perch. The Victorville native’s last fight would indicate that he hasn’t lost his magic and is still one of the biggest draws in the sport who can demand a hefty fight purse.
