Garcia, this year, was in contention to fight twice after his win over Luke Campbell. However, he had to withdraw due to personal reasons. In the latter half of the year, his return got derailed yet again as he broke his hand and couldn’t compete.
Despite all the adversities, the young boxing gun is keen to move ahead to bag a win and advance his chances towards a title shot. However, it is safe to say that Ellerbe isn’t impressed.
