Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis vs. Lamont Roach and David Benavidez vs. Jesse Hart is being thought of for December twenty first.

Staging this two-fight tandem on PBC on Amazon Prime Video PPV on this date will compete with the Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk 2 rematch, which can even be bought on pay-per-view. It’s not a good suggestion to have these two occasions on the identical date. Tank Davis is a giant star, however Roach is a no-name with informal boxing followers, and he’s by no means crushed anybody notable to realize fame.

Tank-Roach and Benavidez-Hart are fights that only a few followers could be curious about paying to look at. The organizers should scrap the thought of staging this occasion on December twenty first except they’re okay with low PPV numbers. Promoting this card for affordable would possibly work as a result of followers could be keen to purchase it if it’s within the $15 vary.

It might make sense for a Tank and Benavidez card to be staged on the identical date as Fury-Usyk 2 in the event that they have been matched towards higher opponents.

Earlier right this moment, followers acquired unhealthy information that WBC interim gentle heavyweight champion Benavidez wouldn’t face David Morrell subsequent. Benavidez mentioned that he was preventing 35-year-old Jesse Hart (31-3, 25 KOs) as an alternative, which followers noticed as an indication that the ‘Mexican Monst’ had gotten chilly toes.

Roach (25-1-1, 10 KOs) could be transferring up from tremendous featherweight to problem Gervonta (30-0, 28 KOs) for the WBA ‘common’ light-weight title.

“I’m advised they’re contemplating the Gervonta-Roach struggle for December 21, with Benavidez-Hart within the combine. The factor is that the Usyk vs. Fury 2 PPV is on that very same day, and that might have an effect on the date. On December 14, Munguía-Gavril could be in TJ and Raúl Curiel vs Alexis Rocha in LA,” mentioned Salvador Rodriguez on X.

Tank Davis has a variety of nice choices for light-weight, and he may struggle beside Lamont Roach. Raymond Muratalla, Andy Cruz, Floyd Schofield, and Keyshawn Davis could be good.
