Ryan Garciamay be the biggest fan Gervonts Davis January 7, when he will fight with Hector Luis Garcia in Washington as part of a boxing evening on Showtime. If Davis (27-0, 25 KOs) beats Garcia (16-0, 10 KOs), another Garcia, Ryan (23-0, 19 KOs) will be waiting for his chance for a 136 lb catchweight bout tentatively scheduled for April 15 .

"Hector Luis Garcia is just way below the Tank class," Garcia told Sports Illustrated. — I want Tank to knock him out. This will make our meeting even more interesting.”

On December 16, Garcia announced that he was pulling out of the January interim fight with Mercito Gesta, focusing solely on the next fight with Davis.

“To hell with it,” Garcia said. - I'm ready to go straight to Tank. For me, it's not about money. I'm just not interested in easy fights. I could fight anyone and earn a decent amount of money, win and support all the hype. But for me, this is really a fight for greatness. I have worked so hard for this. All of my life. I promoted myself very well and did everything I could to get to the point where I get my mega fight."
