Rolly Romero upsets Ryan Garcia in Times Square: Fight results, what's next?

  • Rolando Romero upset Ryan Garcia by unanimous decision on May 2, 2025, at Times Square in New York City, marking Garcia's first fight after suspension.
  • Garcia returned following a one-year suspension for testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs, which overturned his April win over Devin Haney.
  • Romero landed a key second-round knockdown and outworked Garcia over 12 rounds, with combined punches landed at 123 from 490 thrown, the third-lowest output in CompuBox history.
  • Judges scored the bout 115-112 twice and 118-109 once for Romero, while Garcia acknowledged Romero ‘‘fought a good fight’’ and praised his power.
  • The outcome questions Garcia’s previous dominance and casts doubt on a planned Garcia-Haney rematch later in 2025, suggesting promoter Alalshikh might alter plans for both fighters.
