This recent Saturday on April, 22nd on Showtime pay-per-view, two of the best lightweight boxers in the world in the world went toe to toe to decide who truly was the best. Gervonta “Tank” Davis and “King” Ryan Garcia both had flawless records going into this anticipated fight and after blazing 7-Rounds, Davis was the one who came out on top with a wicked body blow. Garcia had the advantage in the first round and was looking good until the second where he suffered a hard knockdown with a left hook. He then eased up and tried to gain his momentum back but couldn’t. After the first round all judges scored in favor of Davis until the final blow was against Garcia until he could not make the count of 10. Despite being a nontitle pay-per-view had over 1.2 million buys one of the largest for this year.

Davis is now the second ranked Lightweight boxer in the world only following the Ukrainian former world champion Vasyl Lomachenko and has a record equal only to the current champion Devin Haney. Lomachenko and Haney will have a world title match on May 20th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. It’s expected that Davis will challenge the winner of this match which could take place this year.
