In a battle of undefeated superstars in the primes of their careers, Gervonta "Tank" Davis put an end to Ryan Garcia's undefeated streak with a resounding knockout victory on Saturday, April 22, 2023, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
After all the trash-talking and social media callouts leading up to the fight, Davis wasted no time in asserting his dominance in the ring. He landed a devastating left hook in the opening round that sent Garcia crashing to the canvas. Although Garcia managed to beat the count and make it back to his feet, he was clearly dazed and out of sorts.
Davis continued to press his advantage in the second round, landing several more clean shots to Garcia and forcing Garcia's trainer to throw in the towel. The official time of the stoppage was 2:20 of the second round.
With the victory, Davis improves his perfect record to 28-0, with 25 victories coming by way of knockout. Meanwhile, Garcia's first professional defeat drops his record to 23-1.
The win is a major statement for Davis, who has long been regarded as one of the most promising young fighters in boxing. It also sets the stage for a potential future showdown with fellow undefeated lightweight champion Devin Haney.
