The perfect record of Gerrvont “Tank” by Davis is no longer, but it remains controversial undefeated after a majority decision in his fight with Lamont Roach.
One judge fired a fight for Davis as a result of 115-113, and the other two cards return even 114-114.
Bad left hook unofficially fired 115-113 and 116-112, both for Lamont Roach, which came as a huge weaker and acted extremely well.
The most critical attraction, which was in the ninth round, when Davis took his knee, and judge Steve Willis refused to call a strenuous, basically allowed the tank to call his own time limit, and then go to the corner to shake his face from towing. We have already talked about it a bit, but it is really one of the absurd and bizarre you will ever see.
Davis blamed that the hair had recently made and Grease got into the incident with the knee.
“He was probably lying (he was lying) when he said that Grease fell into his eyes, but if you voluntarily dress up his knee, it should be knocking down,” Roach said after the fight.
Roach (25-1-2, 10 KO) first appeared from 130 pounds in his career in a earnest fight and never really had significant problems with Davis’ strength (30-0-1, 28 KO), which could consist of the historical “inevitability” of the said task at the end, even with tardy starts.
It just didn’t pass. Roach and his team had a great game plan, and the warrior made a greatly well, while Davis never put it all at a level that the main favorite and vast star is expected.
The scoring itself will be controversial, i.e. the course, just like every draw, but when you also take into account the history of unchanging and boxing, there is a lot to suspect, which is sincere enough. Life.
“I think I have done it in the last three rounds,” said Davis. “I caught him with spotless arrows and crashed as the rounds passed. But he still didn’t make mistakes, so I was careful.”
Davis said it wasn’t Roach who made a combat competition, but his own effort, but said that he felt punishing he was a rematch.
“No, to be sincere, I really made him competitive. For the real one. Honestly,” he said. “But certainly Lamont is a great warrior. He has skills, he has a power to hit. It was a learned lesson. Shouting with Lamont Roach and his whole team, man, I hope we can escape him.”
“I went here and showed,” said Roach. “I am a bit disappointed with this decision, I thought I pulled her out. But these are two qualified fighters showing their crafts.
“I am him. I win you like that. I am one of the best fighters in the world and it showed it tonight,” he added, saying that he does it because it is a rematch.
Roach is exactly right that this should be seen for him as a victory, even if it is only a moral victory, and so the world of boxing will think about it. Davis’ supplies will bring a reasonable hit here and it should, but at the same time the rematch between them will now be greater than this fight, because many more people will enter this one thinking roach – and even should – win, which was not the case.
Lamont Roach has proved that many people are wrong. And Gervonta Davis can also have, just not as he wanted.
