However, the most highlighted part of the 26-year-old’s interview was his cutting remarks on WBA (Regular) lightweight champion, Gervonta Davis.

He said, “He’s for sure gonna get knocked out. He’s gonna run right into something because he’s stupid and he has a big head. He has like this koala-shaped head, like he’s a Koala with chlamydia. He’s big a big a** man.”

This was not the first time when ‘Rolly’ targeted the southpaw gun. The duo shared a long-time grudge.

The rivalry between Gervonta Davis and Rolando Romero

For the uninitiated, the pair was most likely to collide in December 2021. But due to the out-of-ring controversies, ‘The Mayweather Promotions’ did not allow the Las Vegas native to fight. However, later the charges framed against ‘Rolly’ were dropped. Till then, the Mexican power puncher, Isaac Cruz, came into play and proved the toughest opponent of ‘Tank’ in the latter’s entire career.
