Garcia pressured Onama and connected with a left hand. Garcia dictated the pace and had Onama reacting to what he did. Onama landed with a counter right hand. Garcia stepped in the pocket with a left hand that sat Onama down. Onama got to his feet but Garcia kept the pressure on. He landed and Onama was on wobbly legs.

The official time of the stoppage was 3:34 of the first round. With the win, Garcia extended his winning streak to seven consecutive fights.
