The Californian star is back in the ring and he’s aiming to get his sole loss out of his system after being stopped by Gervonta Davis earlier this year in what was one of 2023’s biggest boxing events. 

Garcia was stopped with a sickening body in the fight’s seventh round, but the defeat hasn’t dampened his confidence and he’s ready to prove himself once again.  

If successful against Duarte, Garcia will once again target the sport’s most glamorous names and he’s had his say on how a potential sequel against "Tank" could look. 

“I feel I’m the better fighter. I don’t care what anybody says,” said Garcia when appearing on The Last Stand podcast. 

“I know I’m the better fighter, and if I get my rematch, I’m gonna beat him. And, you know, regardless of the outcome of the first fight, I know I could come back, and I could beat him.”
