Danny Garc\u00eda Says Goodbye to Brooklyn with a Spectacular KO<\/h2>\n\nThe former two-division world champion, Danny Garcia, closed out his “Farewell to Brooklyn” event with an impressive fourth-round knockout over Danny Gonzalez at the Barclays Center in New York.\nGarc\u00eda (38-4, 22 KOs) connected his characteristic left hook to finish a surpassed Gonz\u00e1lez (22-5-1, 7 KOs) at 45 seconds of the fourth round, in a fight scheduled for 10 rounds at 154 pounds. Gonz\u00e1lez fell to the canvas with his ankle bending unnaturally. He tried to get up before the count, but fell again, which led referee Harvey Dock to stop the fight.\nGarcia, 37, was the first boxer to headline a boxing 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 with the same punch in the same round against a different Mexican opponent, in the main event of his “Goodbye to Brooklyn” card, which he promoted under his Swift Promotions brand.\nHis record at the Barclays Center improves to 8-2, and although this was his last fight in Brooklyn, Garcia stated that there is a “high probability” that his boxing career will continue.\nGarc\u00eda set the pace from the start, hurting Gonz\u00e1lez in the first minute of the fight. Garc\u00eda’s activity forced Gonz\u00e1lez onto the defensive, trying to avoid the blows.\n\n

I noticed that I hurt him, but for some reason, my timing got a little off. So I thought, ‘OK, let me calm down a bit in the next rounds and work with my jab, and then, when he stops moving his feet, I can try to catch him’.<\/p>Danny Garcia<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\nGonz\u00e1lez, who fought for the first time above welterweight, had no answers for Garc\u00eda and was hit squarely when Garc\u00eda stood his ground and threw a left hook that landed directly on his chin, ending the fight.\n\n

I already knew what he was trying to do. Everyone thinks I’m flat-footed. They could box around me like it’s easy. But when you’re in there with me, it’s a whole different game.<\/p>Danny Garcia<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nGarc\u00eda recovered after suffering a stoppage loss to the current WBA middleweight champion, Erislandy Lara, in September 2024.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
