Full serving of jabs for Duarte, followed by a jabs dessert and ending with faceburn and jabs reflux. PS If Barrios rids us of Garcia, boxing fans around the world will forgive him for being champion.
Ryan Garcia's last 4 fights:
L vs Rolando Romero UD 12 (both of their welterweight debuts)
NC vs Devin Haney 12 (popped for PEDs and missed weight by over 3 pounds)
W vs Oscar Duarte KO 8
L vs Gervonta Davis KO 7 (catchweight above the lightweight limit)
0-1 at welterweight, 1-1-0-1 at super lightweight
But sure, let's give this guy another welterweight title shot!
All of Hitchins opponents have been underwhelming and he doesn't seem interested in challenging himself. He's in one of the more competitive divisions and he should fight Ernesto Mercado, Jamaine Ortiz, Delgado or Keyshawn. I can tell he would rather fight someone who is tailor made for him. Such as Duarte who will walk straightforward, so he can jab him to death, then cruise to an easy UD.

duarte got that slot by default because he's with de la hoya. it's good that it's against hitchins instead of some no hoper. it wasn't richardson's decision (to pick an opponent FOR THIS card). this is 2nd ibf voluntary in a row. expect mandatory to be ordered next and no unification.
