Ryan Garcia faces Rolando “Rolly” Romero in the main event, live on PPV from Times Square in New York City, on Friday, May 2. The pair battle it out at welterweight. The 12-round contest headlines the fight card billed as “Fatal Fury.”
Garcia (24-1, 1 NC) of Victorville, CA, steps through the ropes for the first time since facing Devin Haney last April in Brooklyn. The 26-year-old’s victory that night was overturned to a No Contest due to a failed drug test.
Former champion “Rolly” Romero (16-2, 13 KOs) aims for his second straight victory since dropping his WBA super lightweight title by TKO in the eighth round against Isaac Cruz last March. In his previous bout last September, the 29-year-old Las Vegas native scored a unanimous decision against Manuel Jaimes.
In the co-feature, Bay Area’s former two-division champion Devin Haney (31-0, 15 KOs, 1 NC) returns against former unified super lightweight champion Jose Ramirez (29-2, 18 KOs) of Hanford, CA. The bout is also scheduled for 12 rounds at welterweight.
Among the Garcia vs Romero undercard bouts, Brooklyn’s two-weight champion Teofimo Lopez (21-1, 13 KOs) takes on unbeaten Arnold Barboza Jr. (32-0, 11 KOs) of Long Beach, CA. Lopez defends his WBO super lightweight title, while interim champion Barboza looks to claim the full belt.
