King Ry’ Ryan Garcia has this week called out Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis for a rematch. Back in April, Tank stopped Garcia in the seventh round of what was by many metrics one of the biggest fights of the year for boxing.
Garcia’s social media post simply read, ‘let’s run it back’ and Ryan’s promoter, six-weight class world champion Oscar de la Hoya has already weighed in on his cash cow’s callout.
Let’s take a look back at that fight in April and see what the case could be for a rematch to come to fruition as well as the schedules of both fighters and what the likely outcome is.
Tank predicted a seventh-round knockout ahead of the fight with Garcia and he duly delivered that night back in April.
The Floyd Mayweather protege looked calm and collected throughout the first four rounds, barely throwing either hand out to match Garcia’s flurry of largely ineffective activity. Those familiar with Tank’s style, however, knew the playbook and that slow starts for Gervonta David simply mean he’s getting his range.
