Ryan Garcia Calls For ‘Tank’ Davis Bout Following TKO Of Luke Campbell

Garcia

Following his incredible TKO victory over Luke Campbell, Ryan Garcia now has his sights set on WBA lightweight, and WBA (super) super-featherweight champion Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis.

This is incredibly exciting because they’re two of the best lightweight boxers in the sport, and they’re also the two hardest hitting. The only elite lightweight that competes with either of them is Teofimo Lopez as far as skill and power both are concerned. WBC champion Devin Haney is also in the mix.

Coming into their fight, Campbell hadn’t fought since August of 2019, where he lost a unanimous decision to Vasyl Lomachenko, while Garcia had gone 2-0 in that time, having fought in November, and February.

Campbell came into this fight with a record of 20-3, but his only defeats came to Yvan Mendy via split decision, which he avenged via unanimous decision, Jorge Linares via split decision in a crazy back-and-forth war that could’ve went either way, and as you’ve read, a unanimous decision to Vasyl Lomachenko.

Garcia became the first man to finish Campbell, which has shown to be no easy feat.

After being knocked down early on, Garcia made the proper adjustments in order to get the TKO finish in round seven. Now that Garcia is the interim WBC lightweight champion, you’d think he’d want to unify his title with undisputed champion Devin Haney.

While that’d also be a great fight, it appears Garcia has different plans for now. Both Haney and Garcia are only 22-years-old, and they’re both undefeated, with Haney at 25-0 with 15 knockouts, and Garcia having improved his record to 21-0 with 18 knockouts following this victory.

Davis himself just turned 26-years-old, and he’s 24-0 with 23 knockouts. Both of these match ups are very compelling, Garcia versus Haney, and Garcia versus Davis. They both make sense, and they should both happen.

We’ve got to think one of those two is next for this young prodigy.
