Boxing promoter Frank Warren has said that super-featherweight Ryan Garner is “on the verge” of fighting for a world title.<\/p>\n
‘The Piranha’ eased past Cristian Bielma on Saturday night, stopping his Mexican opponent in the third round of their contest at Dublin’s 3Arena. <\/p>\n
After the fight, Warren shared how impressed he was with Garner’s performance and what could come next. <\/p>\n
“He did everything that was asked of him tonight,” Warren said.<\/p>\n
“He was right on point and when he had to step it up \u2013 which is what he did \u2013 he did it in great style.<\/p>\n
“He’s there now, he’s on the verge of having a world title fight and he’s very capable of winning one.”<\/p>\n
Bielma struggled to cause any problems for Southampton’s Garner during the bout and quickly had marks on his face after taking some punishing shots. <\/p>\n
In the third round, the Mexican was backed into a corner where Garner let off a barrage of accurate shots to no reply which forced the referee to step in and end the fight. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Boxing promoter Frank Warren has said that super-featherweight Ryan Garner is “on the verge” of fighting for a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":479162,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-479161","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479161","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=479161"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479161\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/479162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=479161"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=479161"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=479161"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
