Ryan Garcia and Rolando Romero will compete for the WBA regular world championship title in the welterweight division in a match scheduled for May in the USA, as reported by The Ring, citing sources.
Garcia last fought Devin Haney in April 2024, where he initially won by a majority decision but was later disqualified for a failed doping test, resulting in the cancelling of that fight's outcome. His current record includes 24 wins (20 by knockout) and one loss.
Romero’s most recent fight was against Manuel Jaimes in September 2024, which went the distance and ended in his favor with a unanimous decision. He currently holds 16 wins (13 by knockout) and two losses.
