The 12-round headliner will see Garcia, the World Boxing Council
welterweight champion, look to defend against Benn. Both men made
weight without issue despite speculation that Benn would struggle
to hit his mark. All other fighters on the card also made weight,
including Zuffa cruiserweight champion Jai Opetaia, who will take
on Noel Mikaelian.

Garcia (25-2) enters the fight having defeated Mario Barrios to
claim the WBC title. This bounceback performance came after „King
Ry“ failed to dethrone Rolando Romero for the WBA belt last year.
Garcia officially weighed 145.5 pounds for the title defense.

Looking to cause an upset is Benn (26-1), whose only career defeat
came to Chris Eubank Jr. last year. However, the British superstar
won the rematch and then defeated Regis Prograis in his latest
outing. Benn weighed 146 pounds on the dot.

The Zuffa Boxing Benn vs. Garcia event will stream live on
Paramount+. The main card starts at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
