Former two-division world champion Danny “Swift” García (36-2, 21 KOs) scored a one-sided twelve round unanimous decision over Ivan “El Terrible” Redkach (23-5-1, 18 KOs) in a WBC welterweight title eliminator on Saturday night at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY. Garcia progressively broke down and busted up the Redkach, but the game Redkach hung in until the end. Scores were 118-110, 117-111, 117-111. Redkach got away with biting Garcia in round eight.
WBC #2 rated Garcia said he chose Redkach, who is rated #25 in the WBC ratings, because Redkach is a southpaw, as are WBA champion Manny Pacquiao and WBC champion Errol Spence, either of whom Danny wants to fight next.
