Garcia vs Benn - all the info And Garcia said: “I’m just making sure that if he does not come in on weight, I still want to use the weapons that I’m used to using, which are 8oz gloves. “So, it was more just um a cautionary thing in case he doesn’t make weight, that I get to still use 8oz gloves. “Because that’s what I always fight at 147 and I don’t want to fight with 10oz. It’s more deadly at 8oz anyway, so that’s kind of why I did that.” Benn responded: “I’ve never missed weight in 10 years. “You’re talking to someone who’s never missed weight versus someone who has missed weight previously, multiple times. “So I don’t know, even I don’t even know why this has been brought up. ‘Oh, let me make a request for someone who’s never missed weight before. Let me put a request in.’ “It should be the other way around. I’ve never missed weight, ever.” Comment now
