WBA (Regular) Lightweight champion Gervonta Davis and rising contender Ryan Garcia are finally set to face off this year. The bout is scheduled at a catchweight of 136 pounds and will take place on 23rd April. This fight has been speculated for a long time with many boxing fans wanting to see two of the best lightweights in the world meet in the ring. Moreover, their intense rivalry has only added to the charm of this bout.

Therefore, it wasn’t surprising when rapper Cordae who is an avid fan of boxing gave his prediction for this fight. The rapper is also the boyfriend of Tennis ace Naomi Osaka and has been in a relationship with her for quite some time.

In a recent interview with ESNEWS, the rapper was asked who he would pick to win. Cordae then picked ‘Tank’ without any hesitation claiming that he was “a gorilla from the trenches”. “So you know what he about to do he a real gorilla from the trenches,” he said. Moreover, he was then asked if he would want to walk Davis out during the fight which seemed to be an “honor” for the rising rapper. “I’d be honored to,” he added.

Hailing from the Baltimore area where ‘Tank’ is from, it wasn’t surprising that C0rdae chose him as his favorite to win this bout. This was not all as the video also showcased a rap session the ‘Two Tens’ hitmaker and Davis had while they were both on the rise. The rapper who is also about to become a father after Osaka revealed her pregnancy will have to make time to see this fight which he surely will. However, he was not the only star who gave his take on this highly anticipated fight.
