North American Ryan García (20-0, 17 ko’s), will face former world challenger, Luke Campbell (20-3, 16 ko’s), for the World Boxing Council Lightweight Interim World Championship.

The fight was scheduled to take place on December 5 but had to be postponed. Now the fight will take place on January 2 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas.

Ryan Garcia, the WBC Silver Lightweight Champion, is a 22-year-old contender who has quickly become one of boxing’s most popular young stars.
