Ryan Garcia has expressed his interest in a rematch with Gervonta Davis following their previous fight. Garcia earned a significant purse of $30 million from their last bout. He is currently in line to face a challenging fight against Oscar Duarte on December 2nd. Garcia’s promoter, Oscar De La Hoya, has mentioned the possibility of a rematch with Davis at the 140-pound weight class.

According to Boxing News 24, De La Hoya is also considering other options for Garcia, including a match against Teofimo Lopez or the winner of the Devin Haney vs. Regis Prograis contest for the WBC title. De La Hoya is cautious about the rematch due to Garcia’s previous loss, the potential impact on his career, balancing the financial gains with the risks involved. Importantly, ‘Tank’ is also on a hiatus following a 44-day stint in jail.

Gervonta recently opened up on X. When questioned about his potential return either in the last quarter of this year or early in the upcoming year, Davis responded, stating, “I am taking some time to sort out my personal life... I will be back in action at the beginning of the new year.” This statement has captured the attention of a significant portion of his fans and followers.
