Danny Garcia appeared listless as he plodded around the ring on December 5th, 2020. Despite being given a world opportunity against unified welterweight champion, Errol Spence Jr., the Philadelphia native failed to pull out the victory.
Activity hasn't always been the friend of Rashidi Ellis. However, after ending his near two-year hiatus with a first-round stoppage victory over Jose Marruffo in July of 2022, the speedy welterweight contender was hopeful that he’d parlay that momentum into big-time matchups.
Three world title defenses and a sparkling undefeated record convinced Caleb Plant that he was the best super middleweight around. His bravado and inordinate amount of self-belief, however, did little to help him during his undisputed clash against Canelo Alvarez.
At this point, even Gervonta Davis’ harshest critics will acknowledge that his violent knockout power is very much real. With a KO percentage of just under 93%, more times than not, the Baltimore native has found a way to close the show.
For a number of years now, Ryan Garcia has pushed the buttons of Gervonta Davis. However, no matter how many curse-filled tirades he would embark upon, the hard-hitting star from Baltimore, Maryland, openly dismissed Garcia, often referring to him as a tenuous opponent and nothing more than a child.
In addition to his overall boxing skills, Montana Love’s flamboyant personality, and outgoing demeanor left fans intrigued. During pressers, the 28-year-old would throw on his shades and lash out at his foes. Prior to actually stepping foot inside the ring on fight night, Love often took his time before sauntering his way through the arena while being accompanied by his pet dog.
Gabriel Rosado has never backed down from a challenge. His record, as a result, is littered with heartbreaking losses. Still, Rosado has brazenly accepted yet another difficult foe...this time, under extremely different circumstances.
He screamed, shouted, and of course, fought his way into one of the biggest fights of the year. However, Ryan Garcia knows good and well that a gargantuan task now stands before him.
The level of animosity between Caleb Plant and David Benavidez unsurprisingly heated up during their first official presser. Although the two are slated to square off on March 25th, at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada, Benavidez appeared on the verge of swapping fists with his longtime rival far sooner.
Ryan Garcia broke away from his normally loquacious behavior. With the usually talkative California native zipping his lips while negotiations with Gervonta Davis took place, he was ultimately delighted when he secured their mega showdown.
