On May 28, Gervonta Davis will get inside the ring with Rolando Romero at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Initially, the fight was supposed to happen last year in December. But because of unfortunate circumstances, Romero had to be removed, and the organizers brought Isaac Cruz as a replacement. After six months of waiting, Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis and Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero will finally face each other with the WBA (Regular) lightweight title at stake.
