Good news has come for boxing fans today with what now looks like one of the best fights possible to be made in the sport.
Pound for pound, that is.
Gervonta Davis vs Vasyl Lomachenko.
No more stepping aside by “Loma” to allow a Davis vs Stevenson fight. Apparently that was said as a joke by one of Davis’ trainers recently.
That will be music to the ears of boxing fans. Without question.
What a fight. It’s a fight that has everything really. Skill, speed, power, old lion vs young lion, experience vs youth, angles, footwork, distance control, ring general ship and more.
If you are a purist you’ll love the fight. Even if you’re a casual sports fan who just wants to see a good boxing match. This will tick the boxes in all counts for that.
This is a bit more like it from Arum and Top Rank who ruined the potential super star building of both Terence Crawford and Shakur Stevenson in recent times.
Before that Floyd Mayweather who got shot of them and went to the next level as the highest paid boxer of all time.
