Ryan Garcia Targets Pitbull Cruz and Sebastian Fundora for Next Fights
After his stunning victory over Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia has set his sights on two potential opponents for his next fight: Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz and Sebastian Fundora.
A fight against WBA light welterweight champion Pitbull Cruz would be the easier and more logical option for Garcia. The two could easily agree on a weight and make the fight happen, providing an exciting matchup for fans.
Meanwhile, Fundora, the 6’5 1/2″ WBO junior middleweight champion, is currently out of action due to a nose injury. When he does return to the ring, he is expected to face either Errol Spence or a rematch with Tim Tszyu.
However, Garcia is reportedly taking a break from boxing and may not return to the ring until 2025. He recently revealed on social media that he made around $50 million from his fight against Haney, including a $12 million bet on himself. With his net worth now close to $100 million, Garcia has solidified himself as the new ‘Face of Boxing’ at just 25 years old.
But with such a lucrative career ahead of him, Garcia is not taking any easy fights. Pitbull Cruz, although smaller in size, is a formidable opponent with an impressive record. In his last fight, he stopped WBA light welterweight champion Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero in the eighth round, proving himself as a force to be reckoned with.
On the other hand, Fundora presents a unique challenge for Garcia with his height, reach, and high work rate. The ‘Towering Inferno’ throws an average of 80 to 100 punches per round, which could prove difficult for Garcia to handle without the rest breaks he had during his fight with Haney.
