Danny Garcia vs Mike Arnaoutis set for Oct 8th

• Junior welterweight prospect Danny Garcia, 22, will face his most notable opponent to date when he meets Mike Arnaoutis (22-6-2, 10 KOs) on Oct. 8 in the main event of Telefutura's "Solo Boxeo Tecate." They'll meet in the scheduled 10-rounder in Philadelphia, Garcia's hometown. Garcia (18-0, 12 KOs), one of Golden Boy's most promising prospects, will be fighting in his hometown for the third time, all since December. "I'm very excited to give my home town another great show and put the city of Philadelphia back on the boxing map," Garcia said. "I'm very excited to be fighting Mike and after this win, all the top junior welterweights in the world will [know] Danny 'Swift' Garcia is for real." Arnaoutis, 31, a former world title challenger, has fought many top opponents, but has fallen on hard times, losing four of his last five.
