What makes a grown man cry? Maybe a body shot from Ryan Garcia, which saw him seal his 18 KO victory and win the WBC Interim lightweight title on January 2.

Ryan Garcia outclassed Luke Campbell thoroughly, before closing the show with a vicious body shot that forced Campbell to take a knee in round seven.

Luke Campbell was literally in tears after he felt the shot. He failed to make it back to his feet in time, and Garcia was awarded the win via stoppage.

The bout brought Garcia’s heart and power to the spotlight. Despite falling in the second round, Garcia emerged stronger as the fight progressed. He planted sharp jabs throughout. Although Luke Campbell responded in kind, it wasn’t enough to stop the youngster.

Amid all the intense moments, Garcia’s body shot to Campbell seemingly stayed as the most memorable one. DAZN posted a clip to showcase the move from different angles.

Following a gruesome in-ring encounter, it was all respect between ‘KingRy’ and ‘Cool Hand’. After the fight, Garcia went towards Campbell’s corner and hailed him for the second-round knockdown. The pair also shared a moment whilst backstage where P4P King Canelo Alvarez joined them.

Campbell further turned to social media and apologized for not bagging the win. However, he applauded Garia for the performance and predicted a bright future for him.
