Super featherweight Ryan Garner has admitted that he has his eye on the winner of Saturday night’s world title bout between James Dickens and Anthony Cacace. <\/p>\n

“The Piranha” fights in Dublin this weekend for what is planned to be a tune-up before a big headline show in Southampton this summer at St Mary’s Stadium. <\/p>\n

Garner will be looking to make it 19 wins without loss when he fights Mexican Cristian Bielma at the 3 Arena, seven-and-a-half months on since his British title triumph over Reece Bellotti. <\/a><\/p>\n

The Southampton man was a late addition to the card in Ireland when he was announced as part of the bill in mid-February.<\/p>\n

“It’s a big show in Dublin and I’ve got my eye on the main event,” Garner told BBC Sport.<\/p>\n

“I want to get the winner of that fight, this will be a decent little eight rounder for me on Saturday and I’ve been putting the work in this camp, leaving no stone unturned.<\/p>\n

“I don’t want to mess it up at the last hurdle so once I get through this one hopefully some big things can happen for me.<\/p>\n

“The main thing on Saturday is looking good, coming out unscathed and then looking forward to a big one at St Mary’s.”<\/p>\n

Garner was initially added to the bill alongside fellow Hampshire boxer Mark Chamberlain who was set to face Dublin’s Pierce O’Leary, but the 27-year-old super lightweight was forced to withdraw from his bout because of illness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Super featherweight Ryan Garner has admitted that he has his eye on the winner of Saturday night’s world…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":533629,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[447],"tags":[703,49,48,82],"class_list":["post-533628","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/533628","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=533628"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/533628\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/533629"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=533628"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=533628"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=533628"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
