The world of combat sports is slowing waking up from its holidays slumbers. The first big boxing match of the year is upon us this weekend with Gervonta Davis defending his WBA (regular) lightweight title against Hector Luis Garcia.
The fight is a big one only because of the inclusion of Davis, who is one of the top pound for pound talents in the world. The undefeated lightweight is expected to cruise through this fight to set up a far more compelling contest against the undefeated Ryan Garcia.
This fight is going ahead despite Davis’ ongoing legal issues.
