Teofimo Lopez leaks Davis’ next opponent

After a short hiatus, champion Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis returned to action this month with a KO victory over fellow southpaw Frank Martin. 14 months after decimating Ryan Garcia, Davis laced the boxing gloves and returned to the ring to successfully defend his title. The W saw him retain his WBA LW title and fans are now hoping to see ‘Tank’ stay more active and take on some of the bigger names in the game.

While promoter Bob Arum opined that he would like to match Davis up against Ukrainian, Vasiliy Lomachenko, Teofimo Lopez has busted that claim by dropping a new revelation. During an exclusive with The Danza Project, Lopez educated the community, revealing that Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz turned down a fight with him so that he rematch with ‘Tank.’

Well, the two did meet previously in 2021 where Davis won via a unanimous decision after a hard-fought battle, handing the 26-year-old his second loss.
