Golden Boy promotions head Oscar De La Hoya believes his charge, former WBC interim champion Ryan Garcia, will be able to defeat WBA regular lightweight champion Gervonta Davis.
My brother Ryan Garcia will not only shock the world, but he will make it look easy. He will start his legacy in this fight. Let's go!
Oscar De La Hoya, quoted by Boxing Scene
