Winner of Davis-Garcia is the next face of boxing says Dela Hoya

The blockbuster fight between Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia will not only determine who is the best among them, nor to end the rivalry, but also will be the next face of boxing. This is what boxing legend and promoter Oscar Dela Hoya believe in.

“I think what’s at stake is the next face of boxing. The beginning of the next face of boxing. Obviously, Canelo is driving viewership, driving the pay-per-views. He’s [still] in the driver’s seat. Yes, he’s at the tail-end of his career,” he said in an article released by Boxing 24/7.

The fight is just bragging rights, no world title belt on the line but is a much-anticipated faceoff of two undefeated warriors.

“I feel in the next few years, whether it’s Ryan Garcia or Gervonta Davis, it’s going to carry the sport for many years to come. “It’s this type of fight that keeps boxing in the limelight and attracts new fans. On one side, I had Ryan Garcia open and vocal about making this fight and wanting this fight so bad, and on the other side, I was cringing because it’s like showing your cards in a poker game,” he added.

Two-weight world Mexican champ Luis Nery (35 wins – 1 loss – 0) mocked the undefeated “Japanese monster” Naoya Inoue (26 wins – 0 loss) as ordinary and overrated hyping their fight at Tokyo Dome in Japan May 6, 2024.

31-year old Inoue will defend his undisputed super bantamweight title against Nery.

29-year-old challenger Nery has the WBC and Ring magazine bantamweight titles plus the WBC super bantamweight title from 2020 to May 2021.

On the other hand, the undisputed Inoue who holds WBA and IBF titles plus WBC and WBO belts has never lost except a decision with Filipino ‘flash’ Nonito Donaire last 2011.

Francis Ngannou cries ‘deception’ vs Anthony Joshua camp

Former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou accused AJ camp of ‘trickery’ when he suffered devastating knockdowns in the first and second round last March 8, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The MMA fighter and former UFC heavyweight champion said that AJ camp sabotaged him by letting him go early in the arena.

“We both fought at 3am. What I think, something that’s happened is that they get me to the arena very early. Like my pickup time was 10.30pm to go to the arena. And then when we get to the arena, they tell us that we are scheduled around 1.45am. right?” Ngannou blurted.

He believed that he came exhausted, which resulted in his humiliating defeat.
