Recent York, Recent York-Ryan Garcia (24-2, 20 KO) returned to the ring after a year’s suspension against Rolando “Rolly” Romero (17-2, 13 KO), his return did not go as expected. Ryan demonstrated rust and seemed unprepared by the plane.
Romero’s additional strength increased Romero, dropping Garcia in the second round with a double left hook. Ryan started an offensive attack in the match, gradually increasing his production from the first to the second round, throwing 28 blows in this round. When he suffered a knocking out, he seemed shocked, and then changed his approach, limiting the exchange, significantly reducing his production for the next ten rounds.
“Rolly fought for a good fight. He caught me early, without excuses. Congratulations to him. He did a great job and all this,” said Garcia. Romero overtook Garcia, being the most energetic of them, throwing 215 stabs, connecting 39 of them (Compubox). The combined 490 strokes thrown by both warriors are the third lowest blows thrown by Compubox in their 40-year history.
After a unanimous decision victory, Rolly won the WBA welterweight title, placing herself on the winning path. Defeating a celebrated star, such as Ryan, only increases his profile and gives him many fitting options. “They always support. Ryan is a warrior. He got up and ended the fight. I am grateful for this occasion,” said Romero. Transfer to 147 helped him and showed himself in the ring. Ryan hesitated before he felt the power of Rolly. Going forward, we could see the ancient power that he threw his opponents.
In the co–Main Devin party, Haney received Jose Ramirez and, like Garcia-Romero, it was a match of a circumscribed exchange, in which we saw Haney took a very sheltered approach, boxing outside to a full 36-minute match. Connected 503 stamps thrown by both warriors won the fourth place in the Compubox rankings for the smallest blows, just under Garcia-Romero. Registration, fatal organizers of fury did not strive when the event was created. Haney landed Ramirez 70 to 40, landed, giving him a unanimous victory of the decision. It was a very technical match of Haney, which seemed ecstatic to do a minimal job to win the victory. “I felt good in the fight, and the game plan I was working on definitely showed him. I imposed him. He couldn’t do anything there,” said Haney. Earlier he stated that he was going to improve the errors of the fight in Garcia and return to what he is doing best, i.e. the box. This strategy reduces the possibilities of opponents, which hinders landing.
In the triple opener, Teofimo Lopez defeated Arnold Barboza Jr. using a unanimous decision. Lopez demonstrated his agility and elusiveness, remaining beyond the reach of barbose blows. The speed and work of the legs turned out to be tough for Barbozy. “We did our best, but this time we started briefly. Congratulations to Teofimo for a hard-fighting victory. We will take advantage of this experience, learn from it and come back more. The work continues. Maybe we can fight the next Ryan, Haney or anyone who gives us the opportunity,” Barboza said. As for Lopez, in the future there may be a movement to a welterweight, stating that the time has come to make this move. It seems that his view is Jaron Ennis, calling him: “I am an explorer and I am looking for shoes.”
