However, something along the way must have interfered with the negotiations of the fight. Although the public isn’t aware of the details of why the fight failed to be made, Garcia spoke with TMZ and aimed the blame at Pacquiao. 

“Manny came to offer me the fight,” Garcia explained. “Obviously, I would love to fight Manny Pacquaio, but that’s on him. That’s on him.”

Shifting Focus

“I’m on one mission — I’m on a mission to knock out Gervonta Davis in two rounds. Two rounds this man will go down. Two rounds, that’s a promise. Calling it, two rounds. Gervonta, if you do not take this next fight with me, you will not be remembered. Your legacy will be forever tainted if you do not accept this fight next. The money’s there, everything’s there, there are no excuses. You’re down in two, you’re down in two rounds.”
