‘This is the one…’: Ryan Garcia Vs. Gervonta Davis fight announcement send fans into frenzy

The way La Dolce Scienza has its hold over the masses, no other sport can ever match. Otherwise, name a sport where a fixture once starts drumming your head; the next you want when awake is for that fight to happen. Else the ghosts stay with you even after witnessing a million bouts.

Salvation is finally near for all those who want to put the Lightweight ghost in a bottle forever. In an Instagram post, Ryan Garcia said he will face Gervonta Davis in 2023.

The fans’ delirium was akin to the tears of joy flowing out of a lost Bedouin’s eyes upon sighting an oasis. One after the other, expression after expression, reaffirmed that steadfast faith and bonding one often associated with boxing.

Ryan Garcia versus Gervonta Davis, ’23

Both Davis and Garcia are at the top of their game. Davis has won all the twenty-seven bouts he has fought so far; slightly less than the Baltimorean, Garcia has won all twenty-three matches of his professional career.

Though Tank has a slight edge regarding the knockout-to-win rate, having won twenty-five good bouts through knockouts, at 93%, his knockout rate is more than Garcia‘s – 83%.

Many boxing conservatives believe celebrity boxing has taken the sheen off their beloved sport. However, to regain the luster, some of the best in the business must match themselves out in the ring.

The talks on a Fight of the Year 

The talks for the fight have been going on for the last two years. It became important in double measure as both are in their prime and still have quite a few more years of boxing left to stage a rematch if the upcoming fight ends unfavorably for either one.

Lauding their spirits to engage each other despite several hurdles, Showtime Sports’ Stephen Espinoza said, “Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia is one of the biggest and most exciting fights that can be made in boxing. We have two supremely talented boxers, both in their prime, who have amassed huge fanbases, meeting in a career defining fight. “This is the epitome of a crossover boxing event. All credit to Tank and Ryan for staying the course and giving the fans the fight they want.”

Issues over telecast are sorted to pave the way for what many deem a memorable fight. Mayweather Promotions and PBC’s Al Hayman, who care for Gervonta, have Showtime as their prime broadcaster.

Former Olympic Gold Medalist Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions represented Garcia with the British live-streamer DAZN as the primary broadcaster.

Confirming the news, Garcia’s promoters mentioned, “The fans have been crystal clear that the fight they want is Ryan versus Tank. “Golden Boy Promotions and I are proud to lead the drive to get this fight signed and are excited to get a deal finalized ASAP.”

Gods have finally answered the prayers for rain. A memorable fight to talk about for years in bars and saloons is what every fan longs for. For sure, your spirits must have been roused by this time. So do let us know what’s going on in your mind.
