Bradley’s take: Can Haney’s technique triumph over Garcia’s power and speed?

Devin Haney puts his WBC junior welterweight title on the line against former interim lightweight champ Ryan Garcia Saturday night at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

The fight between two of the brightest young stars in boxing has been largely anticipated. Haney (31-0, 15 KOs) is a master of the ring. His lack of power is superimposed by his ability to move, defend, and hit opponents while fighting off his front foot or back foot. His timing is impeccable.

Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs) has lightning speed in his hands, and his left hook carries the power to knock out any opponent. But his footwork could be a problem against a fighter like Haney.

Let’s look at the matchup and explain how the fight could play out.
