The atmosphere is building in Houston, Texas, for one of the fight cards of the year and the undercard will begin in a couple of hours. Garcia again criticized his own promoters at the weigh-in, calling out Bernard Hopkins for suggesting only Golden Boy Promotions knows whether he'll continue after this fight. 

"My coach [Derrick James] and my team do," he said. "Everybody that grinds with me, day in and day out, are the ones who decide. Ultimately, God decides, not him." Oscar de la Hoya had his head in his heads at that suggestion, but it's only served to increase the interest in KingRy's return to the ring. 

Garcia vs Duarte: preview

The big fight between Ryan Garcia vs Oscar Duarte is a fascinating contest. KingRy is fighting at light welterweight for the first time following his first professional defeat to Gervonta Davis last time out and Duarte – nicknamed la Migraña, the Migraine – will be hoping to cause another headache for the social media star as he seeks a 12th straight stoppage. Don't miss the action this evening.

The fallout from Garcia's defeat to Davis at a catchweight continues, more than six months on from their bout. The question over whether Garcia 'quit' or not after failing to rise from a body shot on the referee's count of 10 has raged, while he is in a legal dispute with his own promoters – Oscar de la Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions – over whether he can end their agreement.

Taking umbrage with something Golden Boy chief Bernard Hopkins said recently, Garcia spat back: "I'm just tired, like, how does your own team talk s**t about you?" For all the commercial appeal and social media followers Garcia has, he needs to focus on the task in hand and get back to winning ways against a tricky opponent, especially as he moves up to 140lbs for the the first time.

Duarte may not be the biggest name, but the Mexican-born American is battle-hardened and has fought twice this year already. The 27-year-old has stopped his last 11 opponents and has only one defeat on his resumé, a 2019 loss to Adrian Estrella for the vacant WBC Continental Americas lightweight.

Duarte has heavy hands and will look to get on the inside and target the Garcia body where there is a perceived weakness after that Tank Davis defeat. If he can avoid Garcia's lightning speed, then he has a puncher's chance, but KingRy still remains the favorite.
