Gervonta Davis vs Isaac Cruz 5/12/21 lightweight)

[Master]

GERVONTA DAVIS makes his return to the ring as he faces game lightweight contender Isaac Cruz in his next bout.

'Tank' hasn't been in action since his 11th-round stoppage win over Mario Barrios back in June when he announced himself to the super-lightweight division.

But now Davis is back at lightweight, where he holds the WBA 'Regular' title.

Originally scheduled to face Rolando Romero, Davis is now up against Cruz, who is one of the most ferocious 135lb fighters in the world.

Gervonta Davis' clash with Isaac Cruz will take place on Sunday, December 5.

You can expect ring-walks to get going from around 4am UK time on Monday, December 6 in the UK.

The bout will be held at Staples Centre in Los Angeles, California.

There will be a full capacity crowd in attendance at the clash.

Unfortunately, the fight hasn't yet been picked up by a broadcaster in the UK, though this is likely to change.

Davis' last fight with Barrios was shown on Fite TV for a price of £9.99, while his clash with Leo Santa Cruz last year was aired free on Channel 5.

that was a tough fight for tank. i had him winning by two rounds but some rounds were close enough for isaac to feel it was closer. sergio garcia never had a chance on the cards. i had him winning. i couldn't give sebastian more than a draw in that fight. sergiy d fought another war. i had it a draw. carlos got the nod. the fight should have been twelve rounds instead of ten

Kudos to both Gervonta and Isaac on that fight. Cruz showed his utter toughness... and Gervonta was stretched to the limit. Not much more you can do under the circumstances.
Respect to both fighters, as I'm sure they both have a healthy amount of respect for each other now.
