PBC: Gervonta Davis vs Rolando Romero

It’s a UFC-free weekend but it’s another big Saturday night for boxing, as WBA “regular” lightweight champion Gervonta Davis (26-0, 24 KOs) is set for a pay-per-view main event at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. His opponent is undefeated puncher Rolando Romero (14-0, 12 KOs), who is taking by far the biggest step up in his career and has more or less talked his way into this grudge match.

Davis is one of the most entertaining fighters to watch in all of boxing and only two men have ever gone the distance against him. With the way Romero fights, this figures to not require the scorecards.
