Benn’s struggle on Saturday is his first since leaving lifelong promoter Matchroom, having agreed a one-struggle deal with Zuffa Boxing in February.
Zuffa Boxing is backed by UFC chief Dana White and Saudi Arabian capital.
White’s final intention is to sideline the 4 conventional sanctioning our bodies – the WBO, WBC, IBF and WBA – and make Zuffa’s belt the premier world title alongside the Ring Magazine title, an organisation owned by Saudi boxing powerbroker Turki Alalshikh.
What Benn’s future appears like past his cope with Zuffa Boxing stays unclear, but his want to win a world title – simply as his father Nigel did within the Nineteen Nineties – stays agency.
Benn has a number of avenues to discover if he beats Prograis, with Rolando Romero holding the WBA title, Lewis Crocker in possession of the IBF belt and Devin Haney the reigning WBO champion.
But Garcia, whose unpredictability Benn admires, stays the Briton’s primary goal.
“You don’t know who’s turning up – you don’t know if Garcia’s turning up,” Benn mentioned.
“You don’t know if he’s going to make the fight or not, have some sort of episode. You just don’t know.
“People do not wish to be themselves within the sport of boxing, so I adore it once I see a younger man beneath fireplace for being who he’s.
“At least you’re true to yourself and who you are. Whether I like you or not – I don’t him – but some people do, just be who you are.”
