Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia turned out to be the biggest fight of this year. The hype was quite high among the fans regarding this bout. Many pundits called it a 50-50 matchup. However, there was a concern for Garcia because of the rehydration clause request from Tank’s team.

Garcia was knocked out by a liver punch in the seventh round of the twelve-round fight.

Davis said, “Ain’t gonna lie, it’s just- honestly, it surprise me that, I don’t know, it was like different levels, you know what I mean. Punched that guy and I’m like I’m on a whole different level.” He stated how he could only feel the mismatch in their skills, as before the seventh-round outcome, he was also knocked down in the second round itself. From that point onwards, Davis walked through the canvas quite casually.

However, Garcia still believes that he can put down Davis in a rematch. He wants to run the biggest fight of the year back again, and who knows, it may even surpass the record-breaking $22.8 million gate in Las Vegas.

]Right after the fight, in the post-fight press conference, he talked about having the rematch as soon as possible, and just a couple of weeks ago, wished for the rematch at the end of the year.
