His name, popularity and career are greatly influenced in this fight so Garcia must really be able to survive to win no matter what, I sure his new trainer has prepared Garcia to face Duarte.
It just what the fight will be like because if Garcia can't finish with knockout victory and it ends in the 12th round then there is also chance that Duarte will win.
But let just wait, we'll really see how it goes and can see whether Garcia will be what we expect or not.

Indeed, there are rumors that Garcia could have rematch with Davis, but yes, it is also true that there are weight issues between the two that make it possible that they will never be the same.
But if there is rematch, it will be quite dangerous for Garcia because if he loses again to Davis, you can be sure that Garcia name will decline drastically.

But the odds shows that Garcia is the favorite, Duarte is a long shot, a huge 4:1 underdog in this fight. So I don't see this going into full 12 rounds, and it could end in a knockout win by Ryan Garcia. Even the over and under, it's listed at 8.5 rounds.

Which means sport bookies knows that again, this fight is not going to last, the judges scorecard won't dictate who will win. And Ryan Garcia is the clear favorite and so with that, this is a comeback fight for him to show that he still be a great fighter at this new weight class and will be announcing his arrival with a great victory against Duarte.

Soon, in just matter of hours we will see the battle between the two knockout kings meeting and it is clear that Garcia is increasingly the favorite in this fight to win, but worthy victory is knockout.
As I said before, it could end in 12 rounds so Duarte has chance to win because he has fighting style with almost perfect punches or you could say they always go in.
For now, I actually feel doubtful about choosing one of them as favorite and indeed this is fight that is difficult to predict, especially since Duarte also looks quite confident in facing Garcia.
But if you are brave enough to take risks, Garcia can be viable option and he still has decent Odds.

Yes, that absolutely true and it's clear that anyone will make Garcia their favorite because this is very important fight and Garcia must be able to win.
The deciding factor for Garcia in the WBA super light class is this fight because if he loses then what Garcia has achieved during his career as boxer with the undisputed knockout king will be lost.
The bookie will always favor whoever has greater chance of winning, like Garcia.
But honestly, now I have doubts.
