Ryan Garcia wants a ticket for Gervonta Davis fight

‘The Golden Boy’ prodigy recently asked the CEO of Mayweather Promotions to allow him in the arena. However, he didn’t restrict himself to that. Garcia has also called out ‘Tank’ Davis for a matchup in 2021.

In response, Davis has whole-heartedly welcomed Garcia to his upcoming fight. That said, he also alarmed him to be ready for the consequences.

While mocking Garcia’s recent social media posts about Logan Paul and Jake Paul, Gervonta Davis wrote, “You [know] that day coming that’s why you don’t have a fight date [because] they waiting on me…finish clowning [with] the fake boxers Paul brothers…Golden Girl.”

The Twitter rant didn’t stop there. The pair went ahead and unofficially confirmed their matchup in 2021. While Davis advised Garcia to stop faking it on social media, Garcia considered it as an acceptance of his open callout.

Boasting his self-esteem, Garcia said that he is going to vanquish ‘Tank’ when they lock horns against each other.

Meanwhile, Garcia will try to defend his title against Luke Campbell in November. Although the date is still not official, the matchup is going to happen soon. After that, we can embrace a blockbuster thriller between Garcia and Davis. As per the recent tweets, the fight can happen in 2021.

Garcia and Davis need to defeat their respective opponents in Santa Cruz and Campbell. If not, they might have to wait longer until they get a shot at each other.
