Representatives for Ryan Garcia and Gervonta “Tank” Davis have agreed to the framework of a deal for a 136-pound catchweight fight, sources familiar with the negotiations told Sports Illustrated.

Mayweather Promotions, which represents Davis along with Al Haymon, has insisted that Showtime be the exclusive pay-per-view distributor in the U.S, sources told SI. Showtime has aired Davis’s last 11 fights. DAZN has a contract with Garcia and is unwilling to sign off unless the streaming service is involved in the U.
