Security guards intervene during intense face-off between Garcia and Benn

Security personnel were forced to step in during a press conference in New York to prevent Conor Benn from reaching Ryan Garcia. The two athletes are scheduled to compete in Las Vegas on 12 September. The conflict intensified after Benn threatened to knock the glasses off Garcia’s face, leading to a loud verbal altercation that required physical intervention from guards and UFC boss Dana White. Benn, who is now signed with Zuffa Boxing, criticized Garcia as a spoiled individual who lacks the heart of a true fighter, even mocking his previous defeat to Gervonta Davis. In response, Garcia dismissed Benn’s abilities, claiming that the British fighter lacks the skill to survive twelve rounds. Garcia also defended his background against Benn’s taunts. As the verbal sparring continued, Benn’s father, Nigel Benn, watched on while his son continued to challenge Garcia’s resolve. Ultimately, Garcia predicted he would finish the match within five rounds.
