Garcia himself knows the difficulty of facing Davis as his only career loss came against 'Tank' in 2023 via a seventh-round stoppage.

Recently, all the fighters from the May 2 card, Teofimo Lopez, Ryan Garcia, Jose Ramirez, Devin Haney, Arnold Barboza Jr, and Rolly Romero sat down for a round table. Speaking during the event, 'KingRy' said about his next opponent Romero:

You know, he has power in his hands, so I gotta be sharp the whole way through. And, you know, you can’t take nobody lightly. I don’t. I think that his fights after Tank, I kinda see, you know, he doesn’t seem the same to me, like I told him in the face off. But he’s gonna have to prove me different. And we’ll see.

Romero can be reckless at times, but what he brings to the table is excitement and raw power. Ryan Garcia also has all those tricks up in his sleeves and the consensus is that he's technically superior. Fans will soon find out who will emerge victorious.
