Danny Garcia Says Goodbye to Brooklyn with a Spectacular KO<\/h2>\n\nThe former two-division world champion, Danny Garcia, capped off his “Farewell to Brooklyn” event with an impressive fourth-round knockout over Danny Gonzalez on Saturday at the Barclays Center in New York.\n\nGarcia (38-4, 22 KOs) connected his characteristic left hook to finish a surpassed Gonzalez (22-5-1, 7 KOs) at 45 seconds of the fourth round, in a fight scheduled for 10 rounds at 154 pounds. Gonzalez fell to the canvas with his ankle bending unnaturally. He tried to get up before the count, but collapsed again, which led referee Harvey Dock to stop the fight.\n\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.\n\nHis record at the Barclays Center improved to 8-2, and although he had his last fight in Brooklyn, Garcia stated that there is a “high probability” that his boxing career will continue.\n\nGarcia set the pace from the start, hurting Gonzalez in the first minute of the fight. Garcia’s activity forced Gonzalez onto the defensive, trying to avoid the blows.\n\n\n

I noticed that I hurt him, but for some reason, my timing was a little off,” Garcia said. “So I thought, ‘OK, let me calm down a bit during 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\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\nGonzalez, who fought for the first time above welterweight, had no answers for Garcia and was hit hard when Garcia stood his ground and threw a left hook that landed directly on his chin to end the fight.\n\n\u201cI already knew what he was trying to do,\u201d Garcia said. \u201cEveryone thinks I\u2019m flat-footed. They could box around me like it\u2019s easy. But when you\u2019re in there with me, it\u2019s a whole different game.\u201d\n\nGarcia recovered after suffering a stoppage loss to current WBA middleweight champion Erislandy Lara in September 2024.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
