Super featherweight Ryan Garner has admitted that he has his eye on the winner of Saturday night’s world title bout between James Dickens and Anthony Cacace. <\/b><\/p>\n
“The Piranha” fights in Dublin this weekend for what is planned to be a tune-up before a big headline show in Southampton this summer at St Mary’s Stadium. <\/p>\n
Garner will be looking to make it 19 wins without loss when he fights Mexican Cristian Bielma at the 3 Arena, seven-and-a-half months on since his British title triumph over Reece Bellotti. <\/p>\n
The Southampton man was a late addition to the card in Ireland when he was announced as part of the bill in mid-February.<\/p>\n
“It’s a big show in Dublin and I’ve got my eye on the main event,” Garner told BBC Sport.<\/p>\n
“I want to get the winner of that fight, this will be a decent little eight rounder for me on Saturday and I’ve been putting the work in this camp, leaving no stone unturned.<\/p>\n
“I don’t want to mess it up at the last hurdle so once I get through this one hopefully some big things can happen for me.<\/p>\n
“The main thing on Saturday is looking good, coming out unscathed and then looking forward to a big one at St Mary’s.”<\/p>\n
Garner was initially added to the bill alongside fellow Hampshire boxer Mark Chamberlain who was set to face Dublin’s Pierce O’Leary, but the 27-year-old super lightweight was forced to withdraw from his bout because of illness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
