Five of Ryan Garcia's quickest wins as American gets ready for major world title shot
Barrios vs Garcia only on DAZN PPV - Feb 21
Ryan Garcia will bid to thrill his fans when he takes on Mario Barrios for WBC welterweight glory in Las Vegas this month.
The star will bid to earn his first major world title in Sin City, with his bid for success exclusively live on DAZN Pay-Per-View.
Across a busy career so far, Garcia has made a name for highlight-reel finishes inside the ring - and fast ones at that too.
Here, DAZN News looks at some of the quickest wins of Garcia's career following a superb run through the sport's ranks.
The RingEdgar Meza — June 9, 2016
A teenage Garcia's pro debut was an eye-catching performance to flatten Meza. 'King Ry' would go 6-0 within three months before being picked up by Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions.
Francisco Fonseca — Feb. 14, 2020
His most recent outing was his fourth-fastest win to date. Garcia landed a total of seven punches before his eighth — a lethal left hook — finished off the Costa Rican for a resounding first defence of the WBC Silver lightweight title.
Mario Macias — July 15, 2017
Garcia capped an impressive rookie year in the pro ranks with his 10th win in his home state of California, on the undercard of WBC super featherweight champion Miguel 'El Alacran' Berchelt's unanimous decision title defence against Takashi Miura.
Hector Garcia — June 24, 2016
Garcia's second professional fight was more devastating than his first, requiring 22 less seconds to get Garcia out of the Tijuana ring than he did earlier that month vs. Meza.
Miguel Carrizoza — Sep. 15, 2017
And in his fastest showing so far, Garcia dropped Carrizoza with a right just 20 seconds into their bout for the vacant WBC-NABF Junior super featherweight title before putting the Mexican straight back down with a left when he answered the count to force an abrupt end to proceedings.
