Gervonta Davis has responded to Ryan Garcia ahead of the latter’s next fight.
It’s been a hectic last month for ‘KingRy’, to put it lightly. Garcia has been out of the ring since a knockout loss to ‘Tank’ in April, the first defeat of his boxing career. While that was a tough defeat, he’s clearly been feeling himself lately.
Earlier this week, he ripped his promoters, Oscar De La Hoya and Bernard Hopkins, to their faces at a press conference while announcing his return. Garcia is famously slated to face the hard-hitting Oscar Duarte in a DAZN headliner later tonight.
However, the former interim lightweight champion has slammed a lot more than Golden Boy Promotions. Earlier this month, Garcia opined that a rematch with Davis was destined to happen, as the latter “needs” him to sell fights.
For what it’s worth, Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia was a massive bout. It reportedly sold 1.2 million pay-per-view buys and earned over $20 million at the local gate. Despite being a big night, it was a loss for Garcia, which he later attributed partially to a rib injury.
However, Davis doesn’t buy that talk. On X, the WBA (Regular) lightweight champion responded, stating that Garcia only has another year or two of boxing left in him.
