- Garcia loses unanimous decision to 6-1 underdog
- Haney, Lopez cruise in surreal Times Square setting
Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero scored the biggest win of his career on Friday night, upsetting Ryan Garcia by unanimous decision in the main event of a surreal outdoor boxing show staged in the heart of Times Square.
Romero dropped Garcia in the second round with a double left hook and never relinquished control. The three ringside judges scored the fight 115-112 (twice) and 118-109 for the 28-year-old Las Vegas native. (The Guardian had it 116-111 for Romero.)
