Ryan Garcia put one of the most exhilarating shows against Luke Campbell on January 2. ‘King Ry’ won this cracker of a contest by KO in round 7.

Davis took to his Instagram handle, wherein he directed a wild shot at ‘King Ry’. He wrote, “I rather handle s**t wit (with) violence instead of speaking!”
