Mikey Garcia, Signs With Matchroom, Next Fight February 29th
Matchroom Boxing makes a huge signing as four weight world champion, Mikey Garcia, has signed with the promotion. Garcia’s next fight will be in February 29th on DAZN.
After Garcia suffered his first career loss to Errol Spence JR., Garcia is getting back to action in February 2020.
“I am happy to announce my return to the ring for February 29,” said Garcia. “I am eager to make my return and grow my legacy. I look forward to working with Matchroom Boxing USA and DAZN and I want to thank all my fans for the continued support. Fight details will be announced soon and I can’t wait to be back in the ring.”
Boxing promoter mogul, Eddie Hearn, has pulled off another magic trick signing Garcia. Garcia is a fan favorite, especially in Mexico, and with a 39-1 record with 30 knockouts, provides fans with a show every time he steps in the ring.
