'Tank' has finally arrived on the P4P scene and only goes up from here
It took a while to get here as Gervonta Davis and his team carefully built him into one of boxing's biggest box-office stars in recent years but, finally, "Tank" is getting the critical respect that has long alluded him as one of the top pound-for-pound fighters on the planet.
Davis, 28, made sure his critics were out of ammunition following his dominant seventh-round knockout of fellow unbeaten Ryan Garcia in their April pay-per-view showdown in Las Vegas.
Not only did Davis showcase the power that has helped him acquire the label as one of the most devastating one-punch knockout artists in the sport, it was the evolution of his boxing IQ that played the biggest role in how easily he made dissecting Garcia's game feel.
