Conor Benn Sets Sights on Ryan Garcia for World Title

Following his unanimous decision victory over Regis Prograis, Conor Benn expressed his eagerness to face WBC welterweight champion Ryan Garcia in his next bout. Benn, who ground out a hard-fought win despite several head clashes and cuts above his eye, immediately turned his focus to Garcia after the fight. In a social media video, Benn declared, 'Garcia, keep my belt warm! I want my belt, and I'm ready for you in September.' Garcia, who won the WBC title in February by defeating Mario Barrios, responded positively to the challenge, saying, 'I'm down, let's do it.' Benn's win over Prograis, which improved his record to 25-1, took place at a catchweight 3lb above the welterweight limit. With his sights set on Garcia, Benn is now preparing to move down to 147lb for the title shot. The potential matchup between Benn and Garcia is generating significant interest, with both fighters appearing confident and ready for the challenge.
