In the world of boxing, the clamor for a rematch is nothing new. However, when the call becomes incessant, it can lead to a sense of fatigue among fans. This is precisely what seems to be happening with Isaac Cruz, the Mexican lightweight boxer who has been persistently calling for a rematch with Gervonta Davis. The repeated demands have started to irk some boxing fans.

Isaac Cruz, also known as ‘Pitbull’, has been vocal about his desire for a rematch with Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis. He repeated his demand while arriving in Las Vegas for his fight with Giovanni Cabrera, scheduled for July 29, 2023. But why does he want to fight Davis again and how are fans reacting?

Unyielding pursuit of Isaac Cruz

Cruz’s insistence for a rematch originates from his slim defeat against Davis in December 2021. The bout was fiercely competitive, with Davis securing a unanimous decision win to defend his WBA lightweight title. This marked Davis’ first 12-round fight since 2014.

Pitbull, convinced he has unresolved matters with Tank, has since relentlessly pursued a second face-off. “I’m gonna put on a show against Cabrera. It’s all part of my effort to close every door that Gervonta has available to escape from facing me again,declared Cruz.

However, this unyielding pursuit has not been well-received by all. Some fans have voiced their annoyance, expressing a sense of fatigue over Cruz’s constant calls for a rematch.

Joe believes it’s time for Cruz to let it go.

Papi shared a funny meme trying to get their point across.
