To the delight of boxing fans, many big matches are lined up this year. However, one of the most significant fights will occur at Nevada’s T Mobile arena on April 22. Fans have been wanting to see the face-off between the two belligerents, Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia, for a long time. While the former is the reigning WBA (Regular) Lightweight title holder, the latter is a former WBC (Interim) Lightweight champion. Both share an unblemished record and have an uncanny penchant for quick and decisive stoppages. Though the rate of knockout wins heavily tilts in favor of the Brooklyn-born southpaw.

The odds stack against the Californian Garcia by any stretch of thought. He has participated in and won all twenty-three fights. But a common point where even die-hard fans seem to come together is that, with the exceptions of Luke Campbell and Javier Fortuna, he has yet to face a formidable opponent who took him to the limit.
