Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis is off to an early begin, constructing hype for his subsequent combat towards Lamont Roach on December 14th in Houston. Earlier right this moment, Tank (30-0, 28 KOs) warned Roach on X “to not discuss a lot” when he was getting a bit of mouthy.
Tank should begin the pretend hype now as a result of the followers are turned off by this mismatch and see it for what it’s: one other cherry-pick for Gervonta on PPV. To promote this combat, Tank goes to wish to work extra time, creating WWE-like advertising hype by being theatrical and going excessive.
He’s going to wish to give you some performing skits to make it like a play to get followers concerned sufficient to need to buy in droves on PPV. If Tank acts his means by the promotion and comes up with every day drama stuff, this may do nicely. It’ll nonetheless be an entire mismatch, nevertheless it’ll promote.
Roach (25-1-1, 10 KOs) is arising in weight from tremendous featherweight, the place he just lately labored to a slender 12-round break up determination win over Hector Luis Garcia. This is identical man that Tank knocked out in 9 rounds in January 2023. Hector is Roach’s greatest win by far on his 10-year resume.
Roach’s different greatest wins had been towards 40-year-old Jonathan Oquendo and 35-year-old Rene Alvarado. He misplaced Jamel Herring in 2019 and by no means avenged the defeat.
It appears like Tank Davis can’t depend on David Benavidez to combat on his undercard and produce within the PPV buys. He might be going through David Morrell in January in their very own card, which may do nicely on PPV. That’s a much better combat than Tank vs. Roach.
