Gervonta Davis: Rematch Roach in 2025, or let the doubt define his legacy?

Gervonta’s tank, Davis, must ask if he wants to direct him with Lamont Roach after the problems he had in his 12-round tie on March 1 in Brooklyn, New York. Nysac chose not to cancel the results of the fight, maintaining a draw, despite the mess that the referee made in the ninth round.

This does not yet change the fact that the boxing world saw that Tank Davis (30-0-1, 28 kos) lost this struggle. There is a mental asterisk next to the undefeated record of Gervonta in the mind of the fans that will remain. In a nutshell, he struck by Roach. Tank took a knee in the ninth round and should have lost that point. Everyone saw it.

Why resuscitate?

• High PPV numbers: The fans will be very interested in a resale now after the controversy of their last struggle.
• Calm doubts: Tank needs a victory to show his critics that his previous bad performance was just a bit. He must also do it for himself because a struggle like this will be made out of self -confidence and will torment him for the rest of his career.
• The marketing marketing: Moving from this struggle without demonstrating -will hurt Gervonta’s popularity and make less money.

It is crucial that the Davis tank will return to the ring this year instead of waiting until 2026 for resale with Roach. It has to go on strike while the iron is still hot and the fans are interested in the fight. If Gervonta is waiting until next year, fans will have forgotten and there will be not so many PPV purchases generated. The tank only fought once in 2024, but must fight at least twice this year.

“I am not surprised by the decision of the NYSAC. A little disappointed, yes, especially when they recognized the fact that Steve made the wrong calls in the ninth round. But he wasn’t banking in the ball. Everyone knows that I have won the struggle and I am satisfied with that. Part 2 Otw (on the way) ”said Lamont Roach XReaving the New York State Athletic Commission, deciding not to annul the results of its struggle on March 1.
