From coast to coast of the United States, Gervonta Davis has shown that he is a world boxing star. He packed in his last fight in Los Angeles and this Saturday, in his premiere in New York, he also sold everything at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn. ‘Tank’ has two things you don’t get in the gym: charisma and punch.. The second can be worked on, but his is innate. Much was criticized for winning Pitbull Cruz on points, the rumors did not take long to appear… but Rolando Romero gave a good account that Davis’ punch is still intact.
Gervonta gave the fans an anthological KO in the sixth round to retain the WBA Regular World Championship for the lightweight. It is time to take a step forward in your future. The contract ends with Mayweather, who was not in his corner, and we will have to see what he does. During the week he cast doubt on his decision (he first said that he would take a different path and then that he valued keeping his team) and after the match he targeted everyone and no one. Ryan García was at the ringsite, but the spotlights point to Australia. The next week Kambosos collides with Haney. The winner should be his next rival. We will have to see it.
As for the combat, the difference in size was key and marked the fight. Romero was bigger, which made it easier for him to hit from a distance. Davis was slow to find the fight, even taking heavy hands, but he never seemed to be in trouble. He gritted his teeth and found the moment for him. From the fourth round, he put a greater rhythm on the ring, continued to work in the floating zone and risked. In the counterattacks he was finding powerful hands and in the sixth round it was all over. Romero entered with everything. Throwing a long combination was exposed, Gervonta, with his back on the ropes, crossed his straight left and went out. Instant ending, there was no question. Rolly tried to continue, but the referee did not allow it. Deadly, once again. “I didn’t hit him with all my might,” ‘Tank’ joked at the end. Another notch for his revolver, he is a star, but he can’t wait any longer for the rest of the big names. Historical fights await you.
