Little over two weeks before his final foray in Brooklyn, former two-weight world champion Danny Garcia knows he has to produce an impressive showing against Daniel Gonzalez and believes his prior achievements will speak for themselves once it's all sa...
Retirement isn't an easy subject for Danny Garcia.
In fact, he buries his head in his hands whenever the topic comes up. But no matter how well he dodges punches inside the ring, he can't avoid the inevitable.
For most boxers, once they hang up their gloves, they’re often forgotten. But in the case of Garcia, he believes he’ll be remembered forever.
"I'm making it to the Hall of Fame," Garcia told The Ring. "I think I did more than enough. I was a unified champion at 140 and WBC champion at 147. I got some great wins under my belt, am a two-division champion. I definitely think I’m a Hall of Famer."
Garcia does have a number of notable wins, but isn't proud of his latest appearance. Known for his chin and durability, Garcia (37-4, 21 KOs) has rarely been wobbled during his career, let alone stopped. However, Erislandy Lara made him pay for his self-belief.
In an attempt to become a three-division champion, Garcia was dominated and ultimately suffered a ninth-round stoppage in September 2024 by the WBA middleweight champion.
Embarrassed by the outcome, the Philly native refused to end his career on a sour note. So, he'll officially continue on Oct. 18 in Brooklyn's Barclays Center against Daniel Gonzalez.
This will be Garcia’s 10th fight at the historic venue, where he’s gone 7-2. The 37-year-old has already said this is his last fight in Brooklyn, but as far as his career goes, that's a more open-ended question. The former two-division champ isn't concerned with whether or not he'll beat Gonzalez, but the manner he does is the main topic of conversation.
"I know I'm expected to win, but I have to look good doing it," Garcia continued. "I know I'll get it done."
