Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero is predicting a win for WBA ‘common’ light-weight champion Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis tonight in his title protection towards Frank Martin in Las Vegas.
Rolly, who was knocked out in six rounds in his largest profession payday by Tank in 2022, feels that he’s going to do a quantity on the unbeaten Martin (18-0, 12 KOs) of their headliner on PBC on Prime Video PPV on the MGM Backyard Backyard Enviornment.
“Tank goes to f*** him,” stated Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero to Fighthype, predicting a victory for his former conqueror Tank Davis tonight.
Tank Again from His Prolonged Trip
The 29-year-old Gervonta Davis has been out of the ring for 14 months since his win over Ryan Garcia in April 2023, and it’s unknown how he’ll carry out, on condition that he’s not proven a lot curiosity in his profession since he received that big payday.
When a fighter takes an prolonged trip of over a yr to benefit from the tens of millions they made, they’re not often in prime type after they do return to the ring.
Tank is perhaps okay on this case as a result of he’s going through Frank Martin relatively than one of many killers at 135, however he may not be. Davis has taken his foot off the gasoline on his profession like Adrien Broner did together with his profession, and we’ve seen what’s occurred to him.

You possibly can’t blame Tank for not wanting to remain energetic as a result of boxing is tough work, and getting again into the ring to undergo by way of coaching and meals denial isn’t enjoyable.
A beatable man, Martin was chosen as a semi-tuneup stage opponent as a result of Tank wouldn’t come off one other lengthy layoff to combat somebody dangerous like Shakur Stevenson, Vasily Lomachenko, or William Zepeda.
Rolly’s Determined Plea for a Rematch?
What’s unclear is that if Rolly is making an attempt to butter up Tank Davis (29-0, 27 KOs) in hopes of him throwing a bone to him for a badly-needed rematch to present him one other final payday or if he believes he will likely be victorious tonight.
It’s no secret that the previous WBA gentle welterweight champion Rolly’s profession is on skinny ice proper now after he was dethroned by Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz in an eighth-round knockout loss final March.
The way in which that Rolly seemed in that combat and in his match earlier than that, it’s troublesome to image him going a lot additional with what’s left of his profession with no miracle, as we noticed together with his controversial stoppage win over Ismael Barroso in Might 2023.
