Gervonta Davis lost most of his coat of invincibility after his career fell due to a violent division from Floyd Mayweather.
The lightweight Master WBA laid his belt and an excellent 30-0 record, 28 Kos on the Recent York against Lamont Roach of the Lord WBA Super Feather of power. He took it out of the fight, still undefeated, but lost a huge piece of his reputation.
The knee not counted as knocking down, the most blows he has ever taken in the ring, and a wonderful opponent should mean L for Davis in the Barclays Center. However, the compatriot from Baltimore left Recent York with his world titles, but not with the respect of most of the boxing community for his way of winning.
Gervonta davis knees
These opponents of the tank would jump around their fire, because a one -time pound for the Pound star saw his dignity in one incident. During the ninth and despite a good start, Davis allowed Roach to fully return to the fight. Davis took his knees after he was shot, which should lead to knocking down. Judge Steve Willis, a respected official, did not get him. He is wrong.
There were thoughts that maybe Roach would not need KD, because he was at the end at the end. But in the final bell the worst fears of many were realized. Most of the decision -making, with the smallest margin costing “the Reaper”, there was a victory. As it turned out, the decision -maker was an essential knocking out.
Roach moves to 25-1-2, 10 Kos after another injustice in boxing, when Al Haymon wonders about the fall of his guy, who was given by the decision to preserve the title. For anyone, this is never a good look, but Davis will never survive it after leaving the Mayweather promotion and looking good in so many duels before.
Floyd Mayweather divided
The main event of PBC Pay-Per-View on the Prime Video in Brooklyn had no remains of the Floyd Mayweather era, because neither “Money” Man nor Leonard Ellerbe were present on Saturday evening.
Trying to explain why he should lose the fight, Davis scored a list longer than Deontay Wilder, when the “brown bomber” was knocked out by Tyson Fury.
“I just made my hair two days ago and she put Grease in my s ***. So fat, when you sweat, appeared in my face, “Davis said. “I think I have certainly pulled it out in the last three rounds. I caught him with immaculate shots.
“But I feel that I break it as rounds passed, but he was still coming, so I didn’t want to make mistakes, and I was careful.”
He definitely took care when he kneeling and should also take 10-8 on the results cards. Handing this kind of gift in your own program will never fit well with fans. Many who, on the Mayweather side, when Davis left the stable, may now wonder why it went so sour.
Daughter
Pre-fight, Davis tried to explain the separation of ways, blaming his daughter Mayweather for hitting him on social media.
“They tried to say that I had fun with his daughter. She still hit me at Snapchat, ”Davis told Jay Hill Podcast. “They sent him to Floyd and he set off. I was in a losing situation. He was as if you had to fight this warrior, who is Jose Pedraza. If you don’t fight him, don’t fight and sit on the shelf. I had to fight him. In the middle of all this I was evicted and I had to sell jewelry. “
When asked if Mayweather did it intentionally, he replied: “Yes, for sure.”
Summary Davis vs. Roach
The Premier Boxing Champions published their view of the fight and admitted that Gervonta Davis had to deal with more than ever before.
In chipsy, rubbish between two long-time friends, 30-year-old Southpaw Tank Davis began to lead early on the pages of the results of judges after six, and then survived a furious rally from 29-year-old Roach in the second half of the tense battle.
Davis was never able to land any of his usual bombs that change the fight against his former amateur rival and found more blows than ever before in his career. The designated roach recorded a repetitive success, especially with his right hand.
In a heated -questioned fight, veterans separated three or less blows in nine out of twelve rounds, despite the fact that Roach threw 121 more blows than Davis. Davis landed six more power blows than Roach, and Roach landed 15 more stabs than Davis.
In the ninth round there was a controversial moment when Davis ate a stab, and then a voluntary knee before he went to the corner to wipe the eye of the eye. If this voluntary knee were considered to be knocking down, two of the referees’ results cards would replace Roach.
Most random
Roach, Davis landed slightly and closed the robust fight, landing Davis 16-9 in the final verse. One judge fired 115-113 for Davis, while the other two judges turned to identical 114-114 results cards. Davis kept his lightweight WBA title.
After the convincing fight, both veterans expressed the desire for a rematch.
However, in an interview after the fight before the media, Gervont Davis denied that the rematch would take place in 2025. He knows that the result was the world from what Davis said before the fight.
“It is better not to bring your family. I said so. He may be my people, but we have to start it. I don’t care who he comes with. None of them can stop it – he promised.
