At the 27th station in his career, Gervonta Davis continues to show why he is considered to be a rare puncher who is difficult to find the world's professional boxing today. In the Lightweight WBA Protection match, the 28 -year -old fist only takes 6 rounds to defeat TKO with Rolando Romero.
The victory over Romero extended Davis's series of matches to 27, including 25 knock-out wins. With his superior strength and ability, the puncher nicknamed the “tank” often does not take much time to make the boxers confront him soon to stop the game.
In the first 8 matches in his career, Davis ended in the first or 2nd match. Only two fighters stayed with Davis until the last half closed was German Menaz and Isaac Cruz. The power and experience of Davis owned a part of his joining for the Floyd Mayweather, who was also an unbeaten puncher during the competition.
However, over time, Davis showed that he gradually transcended the influence of Mayweather. The match against Romero was also the last time Davis Thuong Dai as a fighter sponsored by Floyd. He officially became a free boxer and could sign with any boss or gym.
Mayweather himself once considered Davis as the best student he was the most spoiled. But with Davis who wanted to separate in their own path, their personal relationship seemed to be broken. Floyd gradually limited to appear at Davis events and now he completely “disappeared” beside his student.
