On The Watch “It’s All About Gervonta Davis vs Lamont Roach”
WBA Lightweight Showdown
Last night’s PBC/Prime Video PPV Main Event between Undefeated WBA Lightweight Champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis (30-0-1, 28 Kos) against WBA Super Featherweight Champion Lamont Roach Jr. (25-1-2, 10 Kos), will forever be tainted by the unusual controversial outcome handed out at the result of this bout. Real Talk!
At the start of the bell Lamont came in focused with a very good “game plan” which he proceeded to use quite effectively while Gervonta took his time downloading his usual data but this time he was met with some resistance from Lamont who did not cooperate as anticipated by Gervonta.
Lamont had brought his “A” game on the night standing his ground and going toe-to-toe with the heavy handed “Tank” who uncharacteristically looked disengaged at times and was taking in more punches than usual. Lamont’s power didn’t seem to bother Gervonta but Lamont’s activity proved to be enough to sway the rounds in his favor.
Both combatants had their moments when exchanging blows where “Tank” showed some levels but was not convincing enough in my eyes. Lamont took in some heavy shots but the kid showed heart and grit and remained fixated at continuing with the “game plan” at hand.
A controversial incident occurred in the ninth round where Gervonta deliberately took a knee due to supposedly having a substance from his hair dripping into his eye which confused the referee Steve Willis, who had started a standing 8 count but changed his mind and allowed Davis to be illegally tended to by his cornerman. In all reality, this should had been called a 10-8 round for Lamont.
That being said, it was clear that Lamont had asserted himself pretty well and definitely became a threat inside that squared circle where Gervonta had tried to step his game up at times to regain the lead but was met with a tougher combatant than expected. Lamont fought with controlled aggression making the bout that much more entertaining than expected.
After 12 full rounds action one Judge scored it 115-113 for Davis while the other two Judges scored it 114-114 even, resulting in a majority draw.
Factor in the missed 10-8 round by the referee and there could have been a clearer winner, nevertheless, with this draw, Gervonta retained his WBA Lightweight Title while Lamont earned the respect of his peers and the boxing community for an outstanding outing of a night.

On The Watch “It’s All About Jose Valenzuela vs Gary Antuanne Russell”
WBA Super Lightweight Challenge
It’s unusual for a fighter coming back from a loss and an opportunity to fight for a WBC Interim World Super Lightweight Title to automatically receive another great occasion to contest for another Title, but the opportunity did present itself for Gary Antuanne Russell (18-1, 17 Kos) to challenge yet again for a Title, the WBA Super Lightweight Belt being held by Jose Valenzuela (14-3, 9 Kos) as the Co-Main Event at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Gary Antuanne understood the task at hand and the opportunity given so he did not want to fail at his second attempt at becoming Champion. Gary Antuanne preceded to execute a flawless “game plan” that could not be deterred by Jose who clearly did not prepare for this type of an attack.
Jose, who himself possesses very good boxing skills equipped with power, could not fend off the heavy onslaught coming his way. Gary Antuanne’s punch output along with the power and the clip they were coming at was simply too much for Jose to contend with. Jose was getting outworked and outpunched from every corner and was unable to respond with any type of calculated “game plan”.
The pressure that Jose was dealing with inside that squared circle was real and Gary Antuanne showed Jose absolutely no respect by the way he handed out this one-sided beatdown.
After 12 rounds of one-sided action, the Judges at hand scored it 120-108, 119-109 and 119 109 unanimously for Gary Antuanne Russell.
With this convincing win now under his belt, Gary Antuanne can now be crowned the new WBA Super Lightweight Champion of the World.
Congratulations Gary Antuanne. A unification bout is definitely on the horizon.

On The Watch “It’s All About Alexis Barriere vs Ubaldo Ilagor Resendiz”
Heavyweight Showdown
In last night’s Groupe Yvon Michel/Matchroom/DAZN co-feature Main Event at the Hilton Lac Leamy, Gatineau, Canada (our own backyard), our Canadian prospect undefeated Heavyweight Alexis Barriere (12-0, 10 Kos) continued his apprenticeship by dispatching of his opponent Ubaldo Ilagor Resendiz (13-2, 12 Kos) in an impressive fashion.
Alexis is a breath of fresh air to the Heavyweight Division. He looks the part, asserts himself quite well inside that squared circle and with the late addition of Sugar Hill as head trainer, last night’s performance was a perfect example of their pairing.
Ubaldo, who came in this bout quite game, was met with a driven warrior in Alexis who had destruction written all over his face. Alexis, under the tutelage of Sugar Hill, looks calmer, patient and more disciplined inside that squared circle.
Armed with heavy hands and a very good punch selection, Alexis efficiently broke down his heavyset 291-pound opponent round by round. It was a thing of beauty. Ubaldo, armed with heavy hands himself couldn’t dodge away from Alexis punches. The head to body shots were taking a toll on him and by the sixth round Alexis dropped Ubaldo with a left hand towards the ropes prompting the referee to rule it a knock down and a standing 8 count. Remarkably, Ubaldo came back for more abuse and got dropped again for another standing 8 count near the end of the round.
Ubaldo wasn’t looking good and was taking a lot of unnecessary punishment. With that said Ubaldo’s corner decided to pull their fighter preventing him from sustaining any further damage.
Win this convincing win, Alexis collected another knockout to add to his bright and flourishing Heavyweight career. I can’t wait to see what is next to come.

On The Watch “It’s All About Chris Eubank Jr. vs Conor Benn”
Middleweight Showdown
The highly anticipated domestic grudge match between IBO Middleweight Champion Chris Eubank Jr. (34-3, 25 Kos) and Conor Benn (23-0, 14 Kos) has officially been announced and set to take place on Saturday night April 26, 2025, at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
Conor has agreed to move up to the middleweight Division where both combatants will meet up to settle their differences once and for all. However, judging by their two press conferences and with Chris cracking an egg on Conor’s face, it’s clear to say that this grudge match has just elevated to a 100% “heat check” at this point.
The respect is clearly out the window for this one. The trash talking between the two combatants has been going on for quite some time and the time is now here for them two warriors to end all talks inside that squared circle.
Chris has a lot at stake for this bout aside from a great payout. At 35 years old, a loss here could see the end of his career in a detrimental way unlike Chris, at 28 years old, and fighting out of his usual welterweight Division, who could always bounce back from a loss and rebuild his career at his natural weight.
That being said, Conor is very strong minded and determined to upset Chris for the sake of his family where his father, Nigel Benn fought Chris Eubank Sr. twice in memorable bouts but failed to secure a victory.
All falls on Conor’s shoulders now and standing in his way is Chris Eubank Jr. who is naturally bigger and in his natural weight Division, will fight his heart out to maintain superiority over the Eubank/Benn saga.
Conor is labelling Chris as a shot fighter at this point in his career while Chris will be out to prove Conor and the naysayers wrong by showing the British fans in attendance and around the world that he’s still got enough in the tank to give Conor his first loss.
This will be very intriguing bout where these two born enemies are guaranteed to shake up that squared circle so tune in live on DAZN Saturday night April 26, 2025, at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
