Rolly Romero drops Ryan Garcia with knockdown en route to upset decision win – Highlights

Former WBC interim lightweight champion, Ryan Garcia has come unstuck for the second time in his professional career tonight against Rolly Romero, suffering a unanimous decision loss to the Las Vegas puncher in a less than eventful headliner in Manhattan tonight.

Garcia, who returned to boxing tonight following a year-long suspension from the sport, most recently fought fellow card feature, Devin Haney in a grudge match in April of last year.

Initially turning in a decision win over Haney in a shocking upset of his own, Garcia would later test positive for the banned substance, Ostarine, seeing the result overturned to an official ‘No Contest.
