Stevenson, who's unbeaten and only 27 years old, recently stopped Josh Padley in the ninth round. Padley stepped in at the last minute after Floyd Schofield got sick and couldn't fight. Now, Stevenson's looking at what's next, with talk of a possible fight against Gervonta Davis, who holds the WBA world title at 135lbs.
Garcia, known as "King Ry," is getting back in the ring after a year out. He failed a drug test before his planned fight with Devin Haney, which led to a suspension. The 26-year-old from California will face Romero at welterweight.
In an interview with K.O. Artist Sports, Stevenson picked Garcia to win. He said:
"Ryan. Rolly is not that good, Ryan is a better boxer. I don't look at Ryan the way other people look at him."
Stevenson didn't stop there. He added:
"I can see a knockout."
The same night Garcia and Romero fight, two-weight world champion Devin Haney will take on Jose Ramirez. It's a busy night for boxing in Times Square.
After this fight, people expect Garcia to have a rematch with Haney later in the year. Meanwhile, Stevenson's recent win over Padley has fans calling for him to face Gervonta Davis next. It's an exciting time in the lightweight division, with lots of potential big fights on the horizon.
