Gervonta Davis vs. Rolando Romero: Date, Fight Time, Odds and Live Stream

This Saturday night at the Barclay’s Center in Brooklyn, NY, WBA (regular) lightweight champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis (26-0) defends his title against Rolando Romero (14-0). This fight has some interesting storylines, which include their personal dislike of each other and the talks of this being the last fight for Davis under Mayweather Promotions.

The last time we saw Davis in the ring was back in December against Isaac Cruz (23-2-1), which was much closer to a fight than many predicted. Davis did suffer an injury to his hand, which led him to finish the fight by throwing punches from one hand. He has expressed his frustrations with Mayweather Promotions and has indicated that contractually this is his last fight with them. Davis’ power and speed are undeniable, and he will need both of those things on Saturday night against Romero.

Speaking of Romero, he was originally supposed to fight Davis in December, but an allegation popped up, and he was removed from the card. Since the charges were dropped, Romero was rescheduled for the fight against Davis. Romero has an awkward style and isn’t the greatest boxer there is, but he makes up for that with his punching power. He certainly has one-punch knockout power and has the ability to shock the world. Can Romero land one of those big shots, or will Davis use his high ring IQ to either knock him out or win by decision?
