Gervonta Davis posted on X moments in the past, saying a rematch with Lamont Roach can occur by the “finish of Could.” Davis (30-0-1, 28 KOs) says he’s “pushing for the rematch” after their controversial 12-round majority draw final Saturday, March 1st on the Barclays Middle in Brooklyn, New York. The scores for the struggle have been 115-113 for Gervonta, 114-114, and 114-114. Nonetheless, the boxing world noticed Roach because the winner and felt he was robbed within the worst means.
Fast Turnaround
Scheduling the rematch in late Could could possibly be an issue for the promoters as a result of they might shortly negotiate, and market the struggle to the general public. There may not be sufficient time to assemble the occasion between WBA light-weight champion Tank and Roach.
The backlash from Tank Davis has taken from followers has been extreme since final Saturday, and lots of really feel he was given preferential therapy from the referee, who did not name a knockdown within the ninth spherical when he took a knee. He was hit with a jab from Roach (25-1-2, 10 KOs), and dropped to a knee.
“My contract is already signed and set for the speedy rematch since you put that in there simply in case you misplaced. Solely motive we don’t struggle is since you’re scared,” mentioned Lamont Roach on X immediately to Gervonta Davis. Phrase around the block is your favourite fighter goes to be 30-1, not 30-0-1… 🫣 2X x 2 Division champ”
As you possibly can see, Lamont Roach believes the outcomes of their struggle final Saturday will likely be overturned and Tank given a defeat. That may solely imply he and his workforce are interesting it to the New York State Athletic Fee.
Curiously, the New York Fee hasn’t mentioned something about wanting to alter the struggle’s consequence to a victory for Lamont Roach. In the event that they reviewed the ninth spherical, no name on the knockdown that occurred, they may in idea say that was a knockdown. That may successfully give Roach the win. I don’t know why they haven’t.
Ryan Garcia posted on social media, questioning why the New York Fee didn’t change the outcomes of the Tank-Roach struggle like they did together with his victory over Devin Haney final yr on April twentieth. They took away Ryan’s win and made it a no contest after his constructive check for a banned substance was revealed.
