Ryan Garcia to Forgo Tune-Up Fight in Preparation for Gervonta Davis

Ryan Garcia will not take a stay-busy fight in January and instead focus his training on a planned showdown with Gervonta “Tank” Davis. Garcia revealed his plans Friday in an interview with Sports Illustrated.

“I had time to think about if I really wanted to do this,” says Garcia. “Tank has always wanted to do things that are going to make him as comfortable as he could be and as ready as he could be going into a fight. I didn't need to tune up and I don't need to tune up. I want to put on the biggest fights for the fans.
