Body shot in the 7th round ends fight between undefeated lightweights.
LAS VEGAS — Gervonta Davis’ left uppercut to Ryan Garcia didn’t seem to do much damage initially.
Davis improved to 29-0, with all but two of his victories by knockout. It was the first defeat for Garcia, who won 19 of his first 23 fights by KO. “Everything about this was exciting,” Davis said. “I was excited to be a part of this event. I remember coming up in the Golden Gloves and seeing Floyd fight at the MGM. It was crazy. I actually just saw Rihanna perform at the Super Bowl, and I thought that’s going to be me one day, and we’re here.”
Even the promoters argued before the fight, with Golden Boy’s Oscar De La Hoya claiming Mayweather’s Leonard Ellerbe and his camp protected Davis by insisting certain clauses be written into the contract. Ellerbe shot back that as the dominant side, they had the right to ask for certain stipulations.
