Ryan Garcia threatened to slap Conor Benn at Las Vegas fight-week media day, and championship week immediately started looking like a bar argument with better lighting. The fighter was in town to sell a WBC welterweight title and chose a slap as his opening offer. He said he does not care if the WBC welterweight title fight gets cancelled, which is a crazy thing to announce when the whole paycheck is that date. Garcia no-showed Tuesday's scheduled faceoff and explained it with I wasn't there because I didn't want to be. Title-fight week polish died right there in one bored sentence. The sport still tries to sell this as a championship product while Garcia treats media day like a mood he can walk out of. Promoters want the Vegas lights and the belt photos, and the fighter keeps giving them a slap threat instead of a locked-in main event. What the week actually produced was the slap.
