Mikey Garcia vs. Juan Carlos Burgos will come to you live from the Theater at Madison Square Garden on Saturday night, and the WBO Super Featherweight Championship will be on the line.
Garcia, who will be making the first defense of his world title, was a buzzsaw in 2013, winning all three of his fights in successively more impressive fashion. He's one of the fastest rising young stars in the sport, and HBO has invested a lot into making him one of the new faces of their network.
Burgos is a two-time world title challenger, and you could easily argue that he deserved the decision in both of those fights. This will be his second challenge for the WBO 130-pound title—he got a hotly disputed draw against then-champion Roman Martinez last January—and he'll be looking to score a pretty significant upset.
Here we'll break down the fight and the fighters for you. This is your complete preview and prediction for Garcia vs. Burgos!
