Panel: With Ryan Garcia set to return in 2022, who would you like to see him fight at lightweight?

Michael Conlan (Featherweight contender)

I’d love to see the Devin Haney fight. I think it’s a very good fight. Both have fast hands but Ryan is faster; both hit hard but Devin hits harder. It’s a 50/50 for me.

Jamie Moore (Former European super-welterweight champion)

I think Garcia’s a phenomenal talent but, at this moment in time, coming off a big layoff, and bearing in mind the reason for it, I feel he should wait a while before going in with the top guys. The most exciting fight for me, though, would be Garcia vs Gervonta Davis.

Wayne Alexander (Former European super-welterweight champion)

I would personally like him to have a decent test first before fighting one of the four very good world ‘champions’. He was on a roll but with the inactivity and personal issues it wouldn’t be a wise move. A fight with the unbeaten Devin Haney would be a massive superfight worldwide in the summer

Andy Clarke (boxing commentator)

Gervonta Davis. Garcia’s performance against Luke Campbell showed us he’s a world level fighter, whilst Davis has been one for a good while. Their styles and mentalities would combine to produce a terrific fight, I’m as sure as I can be about that.
