The Gervonta Davis of two or three years ago may not have been able to pull all of this off. He played a significant role in forcing a fight with Ryan Garcia that turned out to be the biggest match in boxing so far in 2023.
He promoted it extraordinarily as well as with grace and intelligence. He matured before the eyes of the world as he prepared for and then defeated Garcia in their huge 136-pound catchweight bout Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.He finished Garcia at 1:44 of the seventh round with a brutal body shot
What Davis did best, though, was recognize who he was facing. Garcia was, and remains, a brilliant talent, and if it weren’t for him calling out Davis after he defeated Javier Fortuna last year, this bout may never occurred. Garcia would not let boxing politics interfere and he was resolute in his demand that Davis be his next opponent.Unlike Davis, though, Garcia still has plenty of learning to do. Davis quickly realized it.
Garcia is a superb physical talent. He showed his fast hands at times, but he never landed that one big clean shot. Davis took away his left hook and Garcia couldn’t adjust. And Garcia in past fights would often overextend and leave his chin up in the air ready to be hit like a golfer sticking his ball on a tee.
Davis managed to do that. He proved he’s one of the best in the world. He has been expertly coached by Ford, and he showed the poise and savvy that he hadn’t shown before. He’s grown in each of his fights but he took his biggest step on Saturday in his biggest moment.
