ET/5:00 pm PT, live on DAZN & Showtime PPV.Atlas notes that Ryan (23-0, 19 KOs) is huge at this point in his career, and that could be a problem for him making weight and then dealing with the rehydration clause. In a thrilling fight tonight, two powerful undefeated warriors, Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis & Ryan Garcia, will mix it up in their highly anticipated, mouth-watering clash on pay-per-view at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas in a PBC event. Tank: “What it’s going to do for me? It’s going to open up a lot of doors for me.” ![]() I know how to box I’ve been boxing my whole life. I know what I’m going to do and how I’m going to respond. ![]() I know what I’m going to do when adversity comes, straight up. Ryan: “I didn’t prove anything to myself. He got caught with a shot, and his hands were down. “It ain’t nothing to look too deeply into it. He just got caught with a shot,” Davis said when asked about Ryan getting dropped in the second round by Luke Campbell in their fight in January 2021. Gervonta Davis: “I didn’t look too much on it. Read: Mayweather thinks Gervonta Davis kept out of P4P lists due to his affiliation with him They automatically know,” said Ryan to ESPN, slamming Gervonta Davis as someone that lacks the persona to get sponsors I don’t even have to describe why you’re the bad guy. Ryan Garcia: “You know why you can’t get sponsors. The first fight of the pay-per-view portion of the card will have middleweight prospect Elijah Garcia fighting Kevin Salgado in a 10-round fight. Rosado (26-16-1, 15 KOs) knocked out ‘Bek The Bully’ Melikuziev (11-1, 9 KOs) in the third round in 2021, but now they’re going to do it again. Journeyman Gabe Rosado will fight a rematch against super middleweight fringe contender Bektemir Melikuziev in a bout scheduled for ten rounds. In the undercard fights on PPV, WBA ‘regular’ super middleweight champion David Morrell Jr defends against Yamaguchi Falcao in the chief support bout. The untested, inexperienced light welterweight contender Ryan Garcia (23-0, 19 KOs) is confident he’ll pull off the upset against the former three-division world champion Tank Davis (28-0, 26 KOs) in their 136-lb catchweight/10-lb rehydration clause fight. Super welterweight prospect Vito Mielnicki Jr (15-1, 10 KOs) looked impressive tonight, blowing out Jose Charles (20-4-1, 12 KOs) by a fourth round knockout. Middleweight Fiodor Czerkaszyn (22-0, 14 KOs) beat Elias Espadas (22-6, 15 KOs) by a ninth round knockout. In the seventh, Salgado was docked a point for a low blow. It might be a good idea for him to move down to 160 if possible, where his short arms won’t be as problematic as they would at 168 against killers like David Benavidez and David Morrell Jr.ġ9-year-old middleweight Elijah Garcia (15-0, 12 KOs) stayed undefeated by beating Kevin Salgado (15-2-1, 10 KOs) by a ten round unanimous decision. Overall, it was hard to get excited about Melikuziev because he didn’t show the talent that suggests he’s ever capturing a world title in his career. With nothing coming back from the 37-year-old Rosado, Melikuziev teed off on him for the final seven rounds, landing painful-looking power shots to the head and body at will. Super middleweight fringe contender Bektemir Melikuziev (12-1, 9 KOs) had an easy time avenging his past loss to journeyman Gabe Rosado (26-17-1, 15 KOs), beating him by a 10 round unanimous decision in their rematch. In Morrell’s previous fight, he stopped Aidos Yerbossynuly in the twelfth round last November in a fight that left Aidos with a subdural hematoma. Morrell and Benavidez are two guys that have little chance of fighting Canelo before he hangs up his gloves. It’s fair to say that Canelo will add Morrell to his list of fighters he must avoid at all costs. It would be nice to see Morrell fight Caleb Plant, Demetrius Andrade, Jermall Charlo, or Edgar Berlanga before tackling Benavidez because if he could chop those guys up first, it would be an excellent setup for the mega-fight. Obviously, that’s going to be a whole different kettle of fish for Morrell than what we saw tonight because Benavidez can actually fight. With the win tonight, Morrell could be facing David Benavidez next, as that’s a fight that is being talked about. When you’re the chief support bout on a highly watched, expensive card like this one, you must fight better opposition than Falcao. You can argue that Morrell needed a better opponent for the co-feature spot on tonight’s expensive $84.99 card on DAZN & Showtime PPV.
