The Garcia vs Benn possible 2026 unfolding situation continues at the moment and it is looking possible it will happen.
There are so many fights happening in so many countries, so regularly at the moment, even the most dedicated of boxing fans are struggling to keep up with all the high level action and knockouts around the world.
The Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn fight is not as good as the Ryan Garcia vs Devin Haney rematch which is maybe 10 times a bigger fight and the ones all boxing fans want to see.
But Garcia vs Benn is still a good little scrap.
The clash of styles and personalities has lead the two to build up a strong disdain and genuine malice and ill will for one another already.
It appears on surface level however the Conor Benn wants the fight much more than Garcia does. Only this week Benn has said to Garcia to ‘sign the contract’ and he is clearly the win chasing the fight more than Garcia.
Surely Garcia has his eyes on the much bigger Devin Haney rematch in his sights.
If the Garcia vs Benn possible 2026 fight does happen you’d have to think Paramount Plus will look to show it in the US now that Benn is up and running in the US with his recent win over Regis Prograis.
Not a spectacular victory but he got the job done on his US debut nonetheless.
As we’ve said the Garcia fight for him offers the whole US vs UK rivalry story line but more than anything both can punch a bit at welterweight when they are on form and both can be explosive fighters.
At times.
Garcia you’d possibly have to say is the slightly more technically competent boxer and he’s mixed at a much higher level as well in terms of the competition he’s faced in recent years.
Benn would be an underdog but this is something that he maybe thrives on at times.
Garcia has repeatedly referred to Benn as a bum but rest assured, he will take the fight serious if it happens and look to bust him up right in round one.
Garcia might have a slight edge in power but he has been on decline in recent years outside of the Barrios win, Barrios was very under par on the night and that was far from the Ryan Garcia of old.
Let’s see what happens Ryan Garcia and Benn next.
