Gonzalez fell to the canvas with his ankle bent unnaturally. Although he tried to get up before the count, he collapsed again, which led referee Harvey Dock to stop the fight.\n\nAt 37 years old, Garcia was the first boxer to headline an event at the Barclays Center in 2012, when he knocked out Mexican legend Erik Morales with a left hook in the fourth round. Thirteen years later, Garcia repeated the feat, connecting the same punch in the same round against another Mexican opponent in the main event of his &#8220;Farewell to Brooklyn&#8221; evening, which he promoted under his Swift Promotions brand.\n\nWith this victory, Garcia improves his record to 8-2 at the Barclays Center. Despite having fought his last fight in Brooklyn, Garcia mentioned that there is a &#8220;high probability&#8221; that his boxing career will continue.\n\nGarcia set the pace from the start, hurting Gonzalez in the first minute of the fight. Garcia&#8217;s aggressiveness forced Gonzalez onto the defensive, trying to avoid the blows.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a2.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F1019%2Fr1562364_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Danny Garcia celebrates after achieving the knockout in the fourth round.
