Gervonta Davis

Two of boxing’s brightest stars, Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia, collided under the bright lights of the Las Vegas strip on Saturday night. With no world titles on the line, the two undefeated pugilists went toe-to-toe with nothing more than a whole lot of pride on the line after years of trash-talk between the two.

In the early going, Ryan Garcia was the much more active fighter as Davis continued his trend of starting off slow inside the squared circle. Action significantly picked up in the second with Garcia beginning to headhunt. Garcia ultimately paid for his overly aggressive approach as Davis landed a perfectly-placed left that dropped ‘The Flash’ with 45 seconds left in the round. Garcia answered the referee’s eight-count and the bout continued.

Things remained fairly competitive through the next few rounds with Davis likely in the lead thanks to his effective counter-striking. Fast forwarding to the seventh round, ‘Tank’ delivered a vicious body shot at the halfway point. Garcia appeared to absorb it, but seconds later, he took a knee and was unable to answer the ten-count, forcing the referee to call for the stoppage.

Gervonta Davis vs Ryan Garcia Betting Preview

In terms of catchweight contests – this weekend’s heralded clash of undefeated phenoms, Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia has earned massive attention as the former WBA and WBC lightweight titleholders finally share the squared circle in a highly-awaited showdown of North American punching talents.

28-0 boasting a whopping 26 professional knockout victories, Baltimore, Maryland native, Davis – a WBA (regular) lightweight champion, puts his undefeated record on the line in a clash with his fellow unbeaten, 23-0 former interim WBC lightweight gold holder, Garcia, over the course of 12 rounds. 

The T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada will host the much-anticipated southpaw versus orthodox pairing of Davis, and Garcia – and despite the bout taking place in the fight captial of the world, ‘Sin City’ – markets have largely found themselves unable to separate the striking duo.

A rattling puncher on the feet, Davis, who most recently scored an eighth round stoppage of Hector Garcia in January of this year, is currently sat as a -250 betting favorite with BetWay to defeat Ryan Garcia in Las Vegas in the early hours of Sunday.

Sidelined since he stopped Javier Fortuna with a sixth round KO back in July of last year – sans warm-up fights for his catchweight clash with blistering puncher, Davis, Los Angeles youngster, Garcia has been placed as a short +200 underdog to defeat the Baltimore native over at BetWay currently. 

A seven-year professional, Garcia, 24, rose to prominence back in February 2020, stopping Francisco Fonseca with a thunderous first round KO to move to 20-0 as a professional in Anaheim, California.

Minting himself as the interim WBC lightweight crown holder in February of the following year in ‘The Lone Star State’, Garcia ripped to the body of Luke Campbell with a vicious shot, sending the English puncher to the canvas – as well as retirement ultimately in Dallas.

As for Davis, the long-time Floyd Mayweather-linked striker first landed WBA gold at the super featherweight limit with a win over Jason Cuellar back in 2018 – having also landed a victory over the above-mentioned, Fonseca en route to his first world championship. 

Minting himself as one of the most feared punchers in professional boxing today, Davis, 28 – aptly nicknamed ‘Tank’ – has landed massive triumphs over the likes of Yuriorkos Gamboa, Leo Santa Cruz, Mario Barrios, and Rolly Romero during his run as WBA super lightweight and lightweight kingpin. 

Boasting a shocking 93% knockout rate over the course of his perfect 28-fight professional career, BetWay are currently offering Davis as a -137 betting favorite to hand Garcia his first professional defeat by way of TKO, KO or himself emerge victorious via disqualification. 

In contrast, for Garcia, BetWay are currently offering the Californian as a +300 betting underdog to hand Davis his first professional loss via KO, TKO, or himself land a victory over the Maryland striker via disqualification. 

As for a potential quickfire, timely finish between the duo, BetWay are offering a special ‘Gone in 60 Seconds’ prop on this fight – with Davis still emerging as a -6,600 favorite to defeat Garcia in the opening minute, while the latter is a firm betting underdog to the same, sat at +12,500.

Undefeated boxing standout Ryan Garcia had nothing, but praise for reigning UFC middleweight champion Alex Pereira.

Pereira shocked the world at UFC 281 in November, scoring a fifth-round knockout of Israel Adesanya to capture the 185-pound crown in just his fourth fight with the promotion. Holding three wins over ‘The Last Stylebender’ going back to their GLORY Kickboxing days, Adesanya will get one more opportunity to earn an ever-elusive win over the heavy-hitting Brazilian world champion at UFC 287 on April 8.

Appearing on Logan Paul’s IMPAULSIVE podcast, Ryan Garcia heaped praise on Alex Pereira and shared his thoughts on the UFC champion’s skills, even noting some similarities between the two.

“That’s (Pereira vs. Adesanya) gonna be huge,” Garcia said. “You know what’s crazy though? I’ve never seen somebody throw a hook like me, but Pereira does throw a hook like me. He throws it where you don’t really use your legs too much. You just, ‘Whack!’ That guy, he’s scary. I don’t even think I would even wanna be near this man. He’s just a destroyer… He fights like a terminator. It’s weird, bro. That dude, he’s something else,” Garcia added (h/t MMA News).

Ryan Garcia Looks to Hand Gervonta Davis His First Career Loss

While Alex Pereria will be looking to replicate the results of his UFC 281 showdown with Israel Adesanya, Ryan Garcia hopes to hand knockout artist Gervonta Davis the first loss of his professional boxing career. Garcia, 23-0, last stepped inside the squared Circle in July, delivering a sixth-round knockout against Javier Fortuna. He’ll look to make it 24-straight, but that will be no easy task when he meets Davis who walks into the bout with an undefeated record of 28-0, and 26 of those victories coming by way of knockout. Davis has only had one fight go the distance in the last eight years.

Ryan Garcia vs. Gervonta Davis goes down on April 22 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The bout will be competed at a 136-pound catchweight with a 10-pound hydration limit following weigh-ins.

Undefeated lightweight Ryan Garcia will return to the squared circle on April 22 for a highly anticipated showdown with Gervonta Davis.

With a little over a month to go before the 23-fight winner steps back into the ring, TMZ Sports caught up with Ryan Garcia to get his take on a potential matchup between boxing icon Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather and ‘The Problem Child’ Jake Paul. Garcia suggested that Mayweather would likely come out on top, but is confident that ‘Money’ won’t be able to finish the YouTuber-turned-professional boxer.

“Floyd’s getting up there in age, but he’ll probably still beat up Jake, but guess what? Jake won’t get knocked out,” Garcia said. “I’ll 100% that. He couldn’t knock out Logan.”

Ryan Garcia Comments on Altercation Between Floyd Mayweather and Jake Paul

Earlier this week, Floyd Mayweather and Jake Paul made headlines when the two parties had a brief altercation outside of the Miami Heat vs. Cleveland Cavaliers basketball game on Wednesday night. In a video released by TMZ, ‘Money’ appeared to approach Paul with a rather large entourage. Reportedly taking issue with comments Paul made about him previously, ‘The Problem Child’ can be seen running away from the situation after recognizing he was hilariously outnumbered.

“You shouldn’t be running up on a guy with 50 dudes,” Garcia commented. “That ain’t right if you want the truth of that, but it is what it is. I ain’t worried about that. I’m worried about knocking out Gervonta Davis and hopefully, Jakes comes out and shows everybody, ‘I’m with Ryan. Ryan’s gonna knock him out and put him to sleep.’“

Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia will both be putting their undefeated records on the line when the pair clash in a 136lbs catchweight fight on April 15th in Las Vegas.

Gervonta Davis notched his 26th professional knockout only yesterday when he stopped Hector Luis Garcia in the eight-round at the Capital One Arena, Washington.

Davis started slowly before he began to put the pressure on heavily causing the cumulative damage that Garcia faced preventing him from getting up from his corner before the start of the ninth round.

Another stoppage victory for Davis and another successful defense of his WBA Lightweight world championship saw his professional record extend to an extremely impressive 28-0. Having just defeated one Garcia, ‘Tank’ revealed he is now ready to take on Ryan Garcia in what has been one of the most highly anticipated matchups in recent times.

Following on from his victory Davis reflected on the matchup and looked ahead to his highly anticipated showdown.

“I knew when I caught him, he was hurt. He was hurt bad. He’s a fighter. He didn’t wanna show it,”

“I’ll be ready. I’m ready for the fight. He’s been training, he’s been talking, and let’s see who’s really about that.” Davis said post-fight.

Questions surrounded whether his matchup against Hector Luis Garcia would go ahead after Davis was arrested earlier this week facing a domestic violence charge of battery causing bodily harm. Having been cleared of these charges, Davis was able to compete and continue his run of fine form taking out another undefeated world champion.

Following the result, Ryan Garcia took to social media to let his next opponent know what he has coming for him when the pair meet on April 15th.

Gervonta Davis vs Ryan Garcia Scheduled For April 15th

The pair have traded blows back and forth on social media for months but will now finally get to settle their differences inside the ring. Both men enter the bout holding undefeated records with a combined 45 knockouts in their 51 professional outings.

Garcia most recently extended his undefeated record to 23-0 when he stopped Javier Fortuna in the sixth round of their clash securing his nineteenth professional stoppage.
