Dana White wasn’t taking any chances with Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn.
After a press conference that featured Garcia and Benn going back-and-forth, White faced the two rivals off in Las Vegas for fans and media in attendance. Garcia planned to make an egg a part of the faceoff, but security intervened prior to the two fighters getting face-to-face, with Garcia even hilariously saying, “You caught me.”
Without any eggs or extra props, Garcia and Benn had a heated faceoff, with Garcia talking a lot of trash, and Benn making a shushing motion before White admittedly had enough and got in between the two fighters.
Garcia and Benn battle for the WBC welterweight title, and the story of the fight week continued on during the press conference with Benn’s giant weight cut to get to 147 pounds. Benn says he’ll confidently make weight and “look great” doing it, while Garcia kept saying Benn isn’t even at 150 pounds.
