Gervonta Davis Rallies With A TKO victory Over Hector Luis Garcia
American poster boy Gervonta Davis defended his WBA world lightweight title successfully against Hector Luis Garcia with a round 8 technical knockout.
The unbeaten 28 year old had this to say in his post fight comments.
“I was a little surprised but when I caught him, I knew that he was hurt and that he was hurt bad,’ Davis said. ‘He’s a fighter and I know he didn’t want to show it but he was hurt.” He said.
When ‘Tank’ was quizzed on his personal assessment of the fight, the controversial fighter left room for improvement.
“I feel as though I have stuff to work on. I’m a fighter and I’m not retired so my cup is never full. I’m always willing to learn.
I struggled a little bit because I don’t fight southpaws that often but it’s OK because that’s part of the game.”
Next up, is arguably the most anticipated battle between Ryan Garcia and Davis christened 15 April, give or take.
“God willing, I’m ready for the fight [ Ryan Garcia],” he said. “It’s scheduled for April and I’m here. On my end, I’m ready. I’ll take a week off and I’ll be back in the gym for sure.” Tank expressed.
The southpaw thus improved his record 28 victories, with 26 by way of knockouts.
