  "account": "Ryan Garcia made a bold prediction that he would knock out Conor Benn in five rounds or fewer. However, he achieved this feat in just two rounds on Saturday. The 28-year-old WBC welterweight world champion has faced defeat before, including knockouts by Gervonta \"Tank\" Davis and a decision loss to Rolando Romero. Garcia has also faced controversy, both inside and outside the ring. Despite these setbacks, Garcia's popularity has grown, as evidenced by his social media following and the high ticket sales for his fights. After his recent victory over Benn, Garcia declared that he now has the \"golden ticket\" in boxing, a phrase he attributed to Zuffa Boxing. He expressed his intention to defend his title and become the best champion and face of the sport. Garcia is also considering future opponents, including WBA welterweight champion Teofimo Lopez, whom he publicly declared he would like to defeat within rounds 7 or 8.",
