Ryan Garcia Eyes Crawford, Lopez After Dominating Conor Benn

Following his decisive victory over Conor Benn, Ryan Garcia has intensified his calls for a major title unification bout, specifically targeting Teofimo Lopez.

Garcia expressed his desire to face Lopez for the WBA welterweight title, stating "That's the move." This comes after Garcia's impressive TKO win against Benn, which has positioned him for significant future matchups. Garcia has also reignited his public feud with Terence Crawford, issuing a "brutal warning" and mocking Crawford's star power, suggesting a fight to "avenge Canelo's loss."

Meanwhile, Conor Benn is left contemplating his future after the crushing defeat to Garcia. The boxing schedule for the remainder of 2026 is beginning to take shape, with potential returns for fighters like Canelo Alvarez and Isaac Cruz. In other news, legendary Canadian heavyweight George Chuvalo has passed away at the age of 89, remembered for his resilience against boxing greats.
