Ryan Garcia turned the boxing world upside down after he made quick work of what was supposedly the toughest challenge of his career, Javier Fortuna, knocking him out in the 6th round. After the fight, Garcia stated his intentiona to stay at 140 pounds and also offered to fight Gervonta Davis at the same weight.

This was one of the many callouts by Garcia, who is eager to face Tank next. However, Top Rank CEO Bob Arum thinks that this might not be as easy to pull off as he revealed the problem preventing the fight from taking place.

“You gotta understand what the real problem is we know that the Garcia fight with Tank Davis, that is a very interesting fight that’ll do really well. What does really well mean anymore? Where the results on PPV are abysmal, whether it’s because the prices are too high or more than likely because of the piracy,” he said, claiming that piracy was the real issue and that the PPV prices would be too high for people to buy the fight.

Moreover, he also stated that these fights would do considerably well in the past when there was no internet and that even teenagers could now stream fights for free.”A fight like that in the old days would do maybe 700,000 to a million buys, now you’re lucky if it does 250,000… a teenager knows how to get a stream without buying the fight you know. I see it all the time with friends who have teenage kids who can get the stream easier than buying,” he added.

Willing to ‘Sacrifice,’ Boxing Sensation Ryan Garcia Cautions Floyd Mayweather

Oscar De La Hoya claims he can make Ryan Garcia vs Gervonta Davis happen

In a previous interview, Garcia’s promoter Oscar De La Hoya claimed that he can make the fight between Davis and Garcia by the end of the year happen, after Floyd Mayweather dismissed Tank moving up to 140 pounds to face The Flash. “Ryan Garcia, Tank Davis, end of the year. I will make it happen all right, just me. I will make it happen, nobody else can make it happen,” he said in the interview.

If De La Hoya can somehow pull this off, it would certainly be a throwback to his fight with Mayweather which was the biggest fight of that time; however, there are certain challenges they will have to face that they wouldn’t have had to back in the day.
