Ryan “Kingry” Garcia is the hottest prospect in boxing and he just sent out a message to the lightweight division with a stunning first round KO of former title challenger Francisco Fonseca at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California on Valentines Day.
Garcia (20-0, 17 KOs) of Victorville, California keeps getting better every single fight. The 21-year-old, who dedicated his fight to the late Los Angeles Laker Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna, wearing custom boxing shoes in the ring with the images of both, looked like a world beater tonight.
Under the guidance of Eddy Reynoso, the trainer of Canelo Alvarez, Garcia showed a relaxed and confident demeanor in the ring.
He looked like an old veteran in there throwing check hooks that sounded like shotgun blasts as they landed on the gloves of Fonseca.
The fight only lasted half a round and when the knockout left hook punch landed it put Fonseca out cold and lying on his back motionless.
It is an early candidate for “KO of the Year” and that type of power is something special.
