Gervonta Davis vs. Rolando Romero Boxing 2022 | Lightweight title
Gervonta Davis Analysis
The Maryland native will try to maintain his perfect record as he makes his second defense of the WBA lightweight title. In the first, he defeated the Mexican Isaac Cruz by unanimous decision in a fight at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Despite the victory, the Americans saw a good streak end.
The famous 'Tanque' had 16 consecutive fights winning by knockout, but he couldn't knock Cruz down, and he needed all 12 rounds to keep the title. He is 26-0 in his career, winning 24 fast-track fights and only two by decision. A year ago, he won the championship by beating compatriot Mario Barros in 11 rounds in Atlanta.
In addition to continuing without defeats and retaining the championship, it will be a significant fight for Gervonta since everything seems to indicate that after many years it will be the last one he has under the command of Floyd Mayweather since he does not agree with some attitudes and decisions that the former boxer has had.
Analysis Rolando Romero
After a long wait, the man born in Las Vegas will have the desired opportunity. 'Rolly' had scheduled this fight for December of last year, but a legal problem forced him to cancel it. After the charges against him were made, it could be rescheduled for this weekend.
He is considered one of the young promises of the organization, since at only 26 years old, he has a 14-0 record, winning 12 by knockout and only two by decision. In July of last year, his most recent fight was when he defeated Anthony Yigit in seven rounds at a show in San Antonio.
In turn, what he has in common with his rival is the power in his fists. Of his last nine bouts, eight have ended before the seventh round and five before the third. Romero has criticized Davis, arguing that his excellent record was achieved against lesser rivals such as Leo Santa Cruz and Jose Pedraza.
