Ryan Garcia Eyes Redemption in Power-Packed Clash With Rolly Romero
Ryan Garcia is back—and he’s not easing into anything. After a whirlwind year that included a controversial no-contest against Devin Haney and a subsequent suspension for testing positive for Ostarine, Garcia is stepping into the ring once again. And he’s not just facing any opponent—he’s taking on fellow knockout artist Rolly Romero in a high-voltage welterweight showdown titled Fatal Fury: Times Square on May 2.

Now, here’s the real kicker. Gervonta “Tank” Davis, who has faced both fighters, was recently asked who hits harder. And he didn’t hesitate—he gave the edge to Romero. “I can’t lie,” Davis admitted. “Rolly hit harder. People sleep on him. He might not have a chin, but man, he can swing like he’s packing bricks.” That’s coming from a guy who stopped both Garcia and Romero in the past—Romero in six rounds, Garcia in seven.
But just because Romero hits hard doesn’t mean Garcia’s in trouble. Quite the opposite, actually. Garcia has shown resilience and fight IQ, not just raw power. He dropped Haney three times in their last meeting before the result was overturned. He’s fast—blindingly fast—and when he connects, it’s lights out. Romero, though powerful, has a chin that’s been questioned. If Garcia can weather the early storm, he might be able to break Romero down and finish strong.
And there’s more riding on this than just a belt. If Garcia wins and Devin Haney defeats Jose Ramirez on the same night, we could be heading toward a blockbuster rematch between the two—unfinished business with high emotional stakes. That storyline alone makes this event worth the PPV.
So, whether you’re a Garcia loyalist, a Romero believer, or just a fan of pure boxing fireworks, Fatal Fury: Times Square promises to deliver. No gimmicks. Just two explosive fighters, one epic stage, and a shot at redemption and supremacy. May 2 can’t come soon enough.
