Garcia vs Teofimo Lopez next??

Teofimo Lopez tries to get in the ring to face off with Garcia. That would be a fun option next.

Lopez just won the WBA belt by outpointing Rolly Romero, who dropped and outpointed Garcia last May.

A rematch with Devin Haney, who holds the WBO belt, would also be a big fight for Garcia.

More from Garcia

Garcia tells DAZN: “I was just so prepared, I was so focused. I was more than focused, I was ready to go. What a performance, bro, what a performance.

“I mean, look: the first round, I knew he was gonna put mad pressure [on]. I caught him with a couple of shots, but I thought: ‘Alright, I’m gonna let him have his way here.’

“The next round, I stood my ground a little bit, and I knew… He was coming in reckless. I already watched all his fights. You can’t come in there like that with me; he was better off running around the first few rounds.

“I’ve got thunder in both hands, man. They’re both ready to go now.

“I’m here, you can trust me as champion. I’m not gonna f*** around.”

An early stoppage? Bellew and Catterall discuss

Former world champion Tony Bellew, via DAZN: “You can’t jump up the levels as quickly as that [to a world-title fight].

“You’ve got to go up bit by bit. You fight fringe contenders for a reason.”

Current world champion Jack Catterall: “I think it was a little bit premature, [Benn] was still ducking and diving.

“I think most of those last punches he blocked a little bit, but I think the writing was on the wall after that first round.”
