American boxer Ryan Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs) has addressed the rumors about his fight with former world champion Isaac Cruz (26-3-1, 18 KOs) from Mexico.
"Yes, Isaac in May. That’s great, man. I’m ready to make it happen.
Fans love him. It’s a big fight," Ryan said.
In his previous bout, Garcia defeated Devin Haney. However, traces of banned substances were later found in his system, and the result of the fight was overturned. Cruz, on the other hand, lost his last fight to José Valenzuela by decision.
As reported earlier, Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia are expected to fight on the same card but against different opponents. A rematch between them could potentially follow.
