Gervonta Davis vs Ryan Garcia: Records Compared
Gervonta Davis is without a shadow of a doubt one of the biggest stars of the modern boxing era. He has won 12 consecutive world title fights and has ruled the roost at 135-pounds for a few years now.
Not only that, but in his 28 fight career to date, ‘Tank’ already boats the mantle of being a three-weight world champion. The 28-year-old has won world honours at super-featherweight, lightweight and even up at super-featherweight.
Davis has won 26 of his 28 victories by stoppage too. Of the 28 fighters Joshua has beaten, only two men have seen the final bell – one of which was Isaac Cruz. This shows the incredible power and spite in his fists that ‘Tank’ possesses.
You wouldn’t put it past the Baltimore man from securing his 27th knockout and his 29th professional boxing win this weekend. If he does, the world is his oyster. Win this and Gervonta Davis could become one of the biggest stars in world boxing.

Ryan Garcia in his own right is an eye-catching fighter who has done incredibly well so far in his career. ‘King Ry’ only had his first professional fight back in June 2016, and has since then won 23 consecutive fights at lightweight and super-lightweight.
Of those 23 professional wins, Garcia has won 19 of them by way of emphatic knockout. It is evident that the 24-year-old is one of the hottest properties in the sport of boxing right now, and has the skill to match-up to his hype.
Despite having to cut additional weight at make the 136-pound catchweight, Ryan Garcia is a very live underdog in this fight. Only four men have seen the final bell against ‘King Ry’, and it is again unlikely that the judges’ scorecards will be needed at the T-Mobile Arena in the main event.
Garcia has also showed he can go to the well and bite down on his gumshield in the past too. He was knocked down by Luke Campbell in their 2021 WBC Interim World Title fight early in the fight, before flipping the fight on it’s head and winning via stoppage in the second half of the fight himself.
