Despite being 15 years older than Garcia, Eddie Alvarez still has a taste for hard-hitting fights. The former UFC lightweight champion has always been known for his toughness and his affinity for back-and-forth wars.
Alvarez has stood across from a long list of legendary fighters, including Dustin Poirier, Michael Chandler, Justin Gaethje and many others. A fight against Garcia would be a classic “youth vs. experience” matchup, so fans would be excited to see how it would play out.
One of the best fighters in BKFC history, Luis Palomino is ranked second on the company’s pound-for-pound list. He has held titles at lightweight and welterweight and was the first double champion in the company.
Palomino is coming off the first loss of his career, as he dropped the welterweight title in February. A fight against Garcia would be a marquee matchup that would give Palomino to get his mojo back while making a bigger name for himself.
The only featherweight champion BKFC has ever known, Kai Stewart is a rising star who would be an exciting matchup for Garcia. The 24-year-old is undefeated at 5-0 and would relish the chance to test his skills against a top boxer.
Stewart is known for producing fireworks each time he competes, as all three of his title fights earned Fight of the Night honors. He surely will win over some fans if he gets the chance to share the ring with Garcia.
