Like many boxing stars, Ryan Garcia also has a dream fight. The silver lightweight champion opened up on the same and revealed that he would like to fight octuple world champion, Manny Pacquiao, somewhere down the line.

Aged 22, Garcia is already on the brink of a world title and has several lucrative fights in store. However, he seems to have an interest in having a legacy fight against ‘Pac-Man’. He has joined the likes of Errol Spence Jr and Terence Crawford to express an internet in fighting the veteran.

However, his dream fight has to be put on the back burner as ‘KingRy’ has an interim title fight against Luke Campbell.

Prior to his interim title fight, Garcia connected with DAZN to reveal his 2021 fight wish list. He envisions a fight with WBA titleholder Gervonta Davis next. But after that, ‘KingRy’ wants to dance against Pacquiao before turning towards the other lightweights.

Garcia said, “My dream is I beat ‘Tank’ Davis and then I end up getting a chance to fight Manny Pacquiao before he gets to go. Because he is one of my idols. He is one of those people, I look up to, and I think he is that last great legend that after Muhammad Ali and all the other legends, he is one of those. So, it will be an honor to be in the ring with him.”

Be it at 140 lbs or 147, the young Mexican seems ready to go to any extent if Pacquiao accepts an offer to fight him

Ryan Garcia vs Manny Pacquiao- Is it for the titles?

Pacquiao hasn’t fought in 2020 as he has had to balance his career with his role as a Senator.

However, he is still the WBA super welterweight champion and can return to defend his title soon. If there is a shortage of welterweight contenders Pacquiao can take up the lightweight Garcia on his proposed dream fight.
