It was March last year when fans saw Mikey Garcia in the ring. The 32-year old American boxer suffered a defeat in the 147-pound division against Errol Spencer Jr. Now, after nearly a year, Garcia is set to make his return. And this time he will be up against former two-division champion Jessie Vargas in a fight that will not only earn him back his lost glory but also the WBC Diamond belt.
Garcia understands that he just didn’t deliver his best against Spence Jr, which is why he is adamant to prove himself in the 147-pound category once again. Vargas, who last defeated Humberto Soto last year, is equally confident to win.
The fight is literally just days away, so here’s what you need to know if you plan to stream it online on Kodi.
Event Details
If you live in Frisco, Texas then you are in luck because the fight will take place at the Ford Center at The Star on the 29th of February. The current information tells that it will begin at 5:00 PM Pacific Time.

Final Words
It’s early to say anything but a win agaist Vargas might open the door for bigger fights, maybe even against Manny Pacquiao. But a loss again in the 147-pound will be equally bad for Garcia’s career. Vargas has previously fought and won in the 147-pound Welterweight category, so he has that going for him against Garcia.
