Garcia takes care of JuanMa in four

Mikey Garcia scored a fourth round stoppage over former 122 lb champion Juan Manuel Lopez in a Featherweight fight at the American Airlines in Dallas, Texas.

Garcia boxed and won the first round. In round two, the action heated up and it was culminated by a Garcia right hand that sent Lopez to the canvas. Lopez steadied himself and fought on even terms in round three. In round four, Garcia opened up with a four punch flurry. Garcia then landed an overhand right that was followed by a crunching left that sent Lopez to the canvas. Lopez got to his feet but took a step backwards and the fight was stopped by referee Rafael Ramos.
