Danny Garcia will make his first defense of his WBC welterweight title on Nov. 12 on a PBC on Spike card at Temple University in his hometown of Philly against an opponent to be named, a source told ******.com on Wednesday.

The bout is viewed as a tune-up for Garcia’s eventual welterweight unification clash with fellow titleholder Keith Thurman that is targeted for the first quarter of 2017, a second source said.

Thurman hasn’t fought since he won an exciting unanimous decision against Shawn Porter in June but is not expected to fight again until his matchup with Garcia because of the taxing nature of the Thurman bout, a person close to Thurman told ******.com. The news of Garcia’s Nov. 12 fight at Temple was first reported by ESPN.com.

Garcia (32-0, 18 knockouts) last fought in January of 2016, winning a unanimous decision against Robert Guerrero to claim the vacant WBC strap. The bout next month will be Garcia’s third at welterweight and his second this year; Garcia has settled into a two-fight-a-year pattern since 2013.

There must be a reason he's waited this long to fight a nobody.

A wonder if he was told to wait out Floyd for them to say to him actually Danny I'm sorry to say the Floyd fight won't be happening.

If there is one guy who deserves a tuneup in boxing it's Garcia. Give the guy a break, finally.

good to hear wtf has he been doing lol

[mathed]

Man, this punk is going to fight some no name dishwasher and then hide out for another year or two trying to avoid Thurman.

[SkillspayBills]

Probably a bout to get him a TKO before the THurman bout. As long as Keith is next I'm ok with it.

[Fetta]

Sounds good to me. Bring on Thurman March of 2017

The old schoolers would be hated in today's age of social media.

Nice in Philly!
