Conor Benn Sets Sights on Ryan Garcia for World Title Fight

Following his hard-fought victory over Regis Prograis, Conor Benn has made it clear that he is eager to face WBC welterweight champion Ryan Garcia in his next bout. Benn's unanimous decision win over Prograis at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium marked his first fight of the year, and despite suffering cuts from several head clashes, he immediately turned his attention to Garcia. In a social media video, Benn issued a challenge to Garcia, saying, 'Keep my belt warm, I want my belt.' Garcia responded by expressing his willingness to face Benn, saying, 'I'm down, let's do it.' The potential matchup would be a significant one, with Benn seeking to claim the WBC welterweight title after moving his fight record to 25-1 with the win over Prograis. Benn's victory came at a catchweight of 3lb above the welterweight limit, but he has stated that he is now ready to move down to 147lb to face Garcia. With his greater speed and energy proving to be the decisive factors in his win over Prograis, Benn is confident in his ability to take on Garcia and come out on top.
