Following a sensational seventh-round TKO win over Luke Campbell, WBC Interim champion Ryan Garcia wants to have a crack at Gervonta Davis.
‘KingRy’ called out ‘Tank’ in the post-fight interview, and if everything falls in place, the lightweight thriller can happen in early 2021. Both Garcia and Davis knocked out their rivals, and it makes sense to pit them against each other.
While Garcia took seven rounds to finish Campbell tonight, Gervonta Davis took six to finish Leo Santa Cruz with an uppercut on October 31.

When asked about his next opponent, ‘KingRy’ said, “Man, I really want to be a man of my word, I wanna fight Tank. I know people are worried, you know about that one but I am ready.”
If that’s not enough. ‘King’ Garcia passed a similar message in interaction with Fight Hub. He had a clear message for Gervonta Davis.
“I wanna fight Tank, I am a man of my word. That’s what I want… I know Tank is an explosive puncher, but he had troubles with Leo Santa Cruz,” said Garcia.
Despite directing all his attention to Davis, he also tagged Haney as a legitimate opponent. Either fight will be intriguing as it will pit two champions against each other.
So, fight fans can gear up for another lightweight thriller between two elite KO artists from the active roster.
