Does Gervonta Davis vs Lamont Roach reflect the iconic competition from the 90s?
Published
2 days agoon

After providing an extremely humorous first duel, public demand is at the highest level, because fighting fans want to see the continuation of the WBA Lightweight World Gervonta “Tank” Davis Davis and the world champion of Super Feather WBA Lamont Roach Jr.
On the night of March 1, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, Fresh York, the fight of Davis vs Roach began slowly, but when both warriors came to the rhythm, the action took place. It was a close tactical match, but at the end of the 12-round competition, three judges won it as a draw.
When the fight was first announced, hardcore boxing fans were not impressed by the duel, because they thought that Roach was a cherry choice. Accidental fans accepted the fight primarily because of the Baltimore-Washington DC competition. Master Gervonta Davis comes from Baltimore, and Challenger, Lamont Roach, comes from Washington
Usually, a typical Gervont Davis fight takes place like this favorite movie you watch over and over again. You know what will happen, but you still like to watch it. Davis usually starts slowly because he devotes his time to downloading data in the early rounds.
The opponent passes when he exerts intensive pressure in the middle rounds, and then stops opponents in later rounds. On the night of March 1, Lamont Roach refused to follow the script. Roach imitated a boxer from the 90s, who also left the script.
In November 1996, Mike Tyson defended his title WBA WBA Wain Wain World against Underdog Challenger Evander Holyfield. Everyone expected the artist Mike Tyson to stop Holyfield, but unfortunately his opponent did not get a note for Tyson.
On the night of the fight Evander Holyfield was ready and confident. Every time Tyson landed a significant shot, Holyfield provided an immediate answer. Holyfield fought in his pocket, deserved Tyson’s respect and detained Tyson in the eleventh round.
In the rematch Tyson was unable to intimidate Holyfield and bite Holyfield’s ear in the third round. After warning and punishing two points, Tyson was disqualified for the second time to bite Holyfield’s ear.
Twenty -eight years later, when Lamont Roach entered the square circle to face the knockout of Gervont “Tank” Davis, most fans of the fight assumed that Roach would manage early, but would stop in later rounds.
During the fight, Roach was prepared, focused and confident. When the fifth round was over, Davis spoke garbage, throwing three more left hands. Roach replied, talking and then landing many shots on the body.
A few seconds later, while the two boxers were involved in the clinch, Davis raised his right arm up and hit the chin. Roach replied, hitting Davis with a brief right hand. In the middle of round 6, it seemed that Davis tried to bite Roach’s ear.
Intimidation was not a factor, because Roach routinely stood in his pocket and traded with Davis. Critical not calling took place in the 9th place when Davis kneeling, but the judge did not rule it as knocking down. As he summed up the fight, one judge scored a fight (115-113) for Davis, and the other two judges won the fight (114-114).
Like Evander Holyfield, Lamont Roach was not surprised, being weaker who fought against the intimidating knockout artists. The only difference was the victory of Holyfield, and Roach had to settle with a draw.
However, because he achieved well and exceeded his expectations, Lamont Roach should be set to the revenge versus Gervont Davis in the near future. At this point, the question is, can Lamont Roach follow in the footsteps of Evander Holyfield and get a characteristic victory over the world -famous knockout artist?

Delicate pretender Abdullah Mason (17-0, 15 KO) fights with the deputy opponent of Carlos “Chinito” Ornelas (28-4, 15 KO) in 10-order on Saturday, April 5 with the start of the event at 17:30 ET/2: 30 PT, PT, live on ESPN+ with ESPN+ with ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ from ESPN+ Pearl Concert Theater at Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas.
The 20 -year -old Mason was originally to fight with the experienced delicate pretender Giovanni Cabrera, but withdrew because of the problem due to injury. He chose the highest rank 30 -year -old A Ornelas Super Feather as a substitute opponent. It is not ideal for Mason, because Ornelas is not as well known as Cabrera, but it is still a good option.
10-round test
Ornelala underwent a 10-round distance with Rafael Espinosis in 2021, before he later captured the WBO belt 126-pounds.
Boxing fans in social media are not satisfied with the fact that Abdullah is fighting another guy who seemingly has no chance of winning and even competitive with him. They want to see how Mason faced someone like Andy Cruz, who called him to fight this week, or Raymond Muratalla.
There is no way that the best rank will allow the Mason anywhere near Cruz or Muratalla, because it is too early. The scented performance of Abdullah against Yohan Vasquez on November 8 last year showed that the highest ranks must slowly move him. Vasquez dropped Mason twice in the first round.
“This fight at steps. He knows how to move his head and feet. He can hit. We will be prepared for what is coming,” said Abdullah Mason about his fight with the deputy opponent of Ornelas.
For ornelas to go with espinosis, it means that he can make a good shot. If he manages to hang there long enough to test the delicate chin of Mason, maybe he was able to end what Yohan Vasquez began in November last year.
Going forward
“This is my first official 10-round. Akin Reyes and the Bess barrack YouTube channel. “I’m quite well moved [by Top Rank]. Giovanni Cabrera was a good fight, but he fell. After that, I will probably have co-maan or something like the former master.
“We are there. I deal with 7 WBC and 10 WBA. It’s just a matter of time in the next two or three fights before I enter the rankings. Everything else is associated with this,” said Mason.

Eddie Hearna’s forecasts: Reduced Puntu Joe Joyce resistance leads to the expected knockout by Filip Hrgovica in four rounds
Published
5 hours agoon
April 3, 2025
Promoter Eddie Hearn predicts that weighty weight claimant Filip Hrgovic will break Joe Joyce “Inside Three or Four Runs” on Saturday, April 5, on a live cooperative in Manchester in England.
Joyce: Used?
Hearn believes that Joyce’s resistance has decreased from his two knockout losses from Zhilei Zhang and thousands of sparring rounds he did over the years. He notes that the blows that Veteran Derek Chisora hurt 39-year-old Joyce in their fight last summer on July 27, he would never have done it to him before in his career.
Saturday’s Joyce event vs. Hrgovic will be shown live in Dazn. The main card starts at 14.00 et/11 in the morning PT, and the main ring of the event goes around 17:00 et/2 pm entitled
“He had a very close fight with Derek Chisor. No knocking out [in round nine]It would be very close – said the promoter Eddie Hearn Stamping ground About the recent defeat of Joe Joyce with a 41-year-old Veteran Derek Chisory on July 27 last year.
“Derek Chisora is now mandatory for [IBF heavyweight] World Championship title. He just defeated Otto Wallin. [Hearn makes a face, giving his thoughts on Derek being the IBF mandatory to fight for a world title.]”
The arrows with which Joyce was hit against Chisorie were caused by the fact that he fought too close, leaving defense and was leisurely. He fought him wrong. A faster warrior would destroy Chisora inside, but Joyce is so leisurely at this stage of his career that he was defenseless.
It was still a close fight with the result determined by Chisor, who shot Chisor, but Joyce should not lose the warrior at this level. At best, he would beat any version of Chisora.
Impact resistance
“The problem concerns some warriors, and Joe is a good example. Joe was always leisurely in the ring. He never looked like this sensational, qualified warrior,” said Hearn. “In the past he was very tough, it can hit, he is a immense nodule and has a great chin. As his career progressed, his impact resistance has changed.
“Shots that hurt him against Chisorie had never hurt him before. Two [Zhilei] Zhang defeats thousands of rounds of weighty sparring were a problem. If you want to predict, he [Joyce] On Saturday he will be well defeated and I think it will be in three or four rounds, said Hearn.
Joyce was knocked out twice in the first round during his amateur career in 2013. However, he was able to return from these losses and avoid knocking until he met Zhilei Zhang in 2023.
There is no shame when he was knocked out by a great puncher, such as Zhang, because he would do the same with Anthony Joshua if he was associated with similar blows. Zhang is the only guy who stopped Joyce in professionals. In the defeat of the juggernaut against Chisorie, he was never threatened with knocking out. He was dropped in ninth place, but it was more knocking down.
HRGOVICA FREE
Hrgovic says that Joyce is now “antique”, does not look good and must “retire” after the fight on Saturday evening. Of course, Filip is on the same boat, he was knocked out in his last fight and wounded in the match against Demesey McKean on August 12, 2023.
Hrgovic defeated in his last fight, he was eliminated in the eighth round by Daniel Dubois on June 1 last year. If Joyce can stay long enough to land weighty arrows, he can wear Hrgovic to get space. Dubois is also not the fastest guy, but he forced the tempo at the Hrgovita who wore him.
