Danny Garcia, a two-divisional world champion, will return after more than a year-long hiatus tonight to face Jose Benavidez Jr. in a middleweight scrap. It will be Garcia’s debut in the 160 lbs division and a fresh start to his boxing career.

Across his 36 wins and 3 losses, ‘Swift’ has fought some of the best boxers of his time. 21 of his wins have come via stoppage, citing how devastating of a puncher Garcia is. However, he has lost the biggest bouts of his career so far.

Only three men have defeated ‘Swift’: Keith Thurman, Shawn Porter, and Errol Spence Jr., all three of whom are world champion prospects. That said, none of them could stop Garcia. All three of these fights went the distance, handing Danny Garcia three decision losses in the process.
