While Garcia remains a star in the making the 22-year-old lightweight is about to start 2021 off with a major bang. After coming off a first-round knockout finish over Francisco Fonseca last February Garcia is hoping to keep things rolling against his stiffest test to date and prove he’s ready to take the next step in his boxing career.
Standing in his way will be Campbell, who is a former Olympic gold medalist and lightweight title challenger. Campbell is coming off a lopsided loss to Vasyl Lomachenko back in August of 2019 and is eager to prove he’s still a top contender at 33 years of age. He’ll have to be on top of his game if he wants to stop the quicker and more powerful Garcia.
