    Apparently it's in the works. Might put some money on it. He has an iron chin i think he's gonna run straight through Garcia

    That’s a fun fight! Garcia is no punk even though he acts like a prima donna most of the time, hope he wins but I favor Pitbull to win. 70/30 - Pitbull

    So Ryan is not fighting Teo after all and fighting Pitbull instead?

    Jeez, what's one to believe nowadays?? Last thing I heard was that Turki was implying on his social media account that Ryan was fighting Teo, oh well.....

    Ryan isn't an intelligent mover in the ring, Pitbull is gonna force a shootout (that's his whole style), this is honestly a 50/50 maybe 55/45 fight either way and a very dangerous fight to take on a showcase card to build up a rematch between him and Haney.

    And Haney being as fragile as he is, him fighting Jose Ramirez is kinda an odd pick, someone he has no chance at beating up and definitely has the power to knock him out.

    Both guys that are the draws actually could lose.................and that would be hilarious

    This is a terrible fight for Ryan with a big money fight up next.

    Pitbull can win that. No doubt at all.

    I would bet the house on Cruz, Ryan doesn’t have the skills to neutralise that little brute. Rayo’s defense is probably his biggest weakness and he’s practically Mayweather compared to Ryan.

    That is a dangerous opponent. Cruz has a solid chin, tight guard , and non stop pressure. Cruz weakness is a smart boxer that can stick and move. Smart boxer isnt what I would call Garcia.

    Garcia has power , if he lands that it is a game changer.

    The end result of Garcia-Pitbull wouldn't effect a Haney rematch. There's no belt involved. Money and vengeance are compelling motivators.

    While I largely agree with your Garcia-Pit Bull analysis, NP, if it devolves into a firefight, I favor Garcia because I believe he has more firepower and will find a home for that lightening fast hook.

    Garcia had problems when a boxer with less punch, less chin and less explosive like Duarte pressured him. The pitbull is much more dangerous than Oscar Duarte. It would be a dangerous fight for Ryan because there is a good chance he would lose. However, he has a decent chance of landing a good punch and making it a tough fight. I don't know what will happen, but I will be watching that fight.

    Tough fight for Garcia stylistically. A very risky fight indeed especially with Haney afterwards. I'd probably rather watch this fight than Garcia V Haney rematch.

    Looking forward to this, could be a total shootout.
