Showtime Boxing and MMA analyst Brendan Schaub made a startling claim after Ryan Garcia‘s first professional defeat to Gervonta Davis. As usual, Gervonta Davis started at a slow pace, carefully measuring Garcia’s placements and reach. While ‘KingRy’ (now, 23-1-0) looked forward to adding pressure on Davis (now, 29-0-0) in the second round with a flurry of desperate punches, Davis responded through his accuracy and by dropping Garcia on the ground.

True to his words, in the seventh round, Davis hit Garcia with an almost invisible left hand to the body and dropped Garcia to one of his knees. Following the spectacular performance by Davis, Brendan Schaub made a claim regarding Garcia stepping in with a so-called “previous injury“. Although Schaub assured of not robbing ‘Tank’ of his due credit, he stressed the unusual condition of Garcia.
