Floyd Mayweather Beats Ryan Garcia, Eddie Hearn Believes

Promoter Eddie Hearn stated that he believes 49-year-old Floyd Mayweather would defeat Ryan Garcia in a proposed welterweight bout. Hearn praised Mayweather for potentially attempting a legitimate championship comeback against the reigning WBC welterweight titleholder rather than another exhibition. Although Hearn claimed the contest is agreed to behind the scenes, neither fighter's team has released an official date or a signed contract.

Boxing 24/7 Wire argues that despite Garcia's youth, his reliance on a primary left hook makes him vulnerable against Mayweather's defensive mastery and ring IQ. The outlet also asserts that losing to an aging Mayweather would severely damage Garcia's credibility as an elite fighter.
