Gervonta Davis today dropped a rather large hint that his next fight, already confirmed to be against Lamont Roach, will take place in Houston, TX, with December the month in which it will take place.
"DECEMBER, Houston," the short but revealing post said.
It had been reported that December 21, the night of the Oleksandr Usyk-Tyson Fury rematch in Saudi Arabia, was under consideration as the specific date. Further reports have speculated that December 14 is when the event will occur.
Davis, 30-0 (28 KOs), was last seen inside a boxing ring against Frank Martin in June, applying the knockout in round eight inside the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
Roach, 25-1-1 (10 KOs), would likely step up from his usual junior lightweight surrounds, where he currently holds the WBA title, to challenge for Davis' lightweight belt from the same organization.
Roach would start as a huge underdog but has won six in a row since he was outpointed by Jamel Herring in a bid for the WBO title at 130lbs.
