Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero is predicting a win for WBA ‘common’ light-weight champion Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis tonight in his title protection in opposition to 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,” mentioned 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 acquired that big payday.
When a fighter takes an prolonged trip of over a yr to benefit from the thousands and thousands they made, they’re hardly ever in high kind after they do return to the ring.
Tank is likely to be okay on this case as a result of he’s going through Frank Martin reasonably than one of many killers at 135, however he may not be. Davis has taken his foot off the fuel on his profession like Adrien Broner did along with his profession, and we’ve seen what’s occurred to him.

You may’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 means 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 battle 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 attempting to butter up Tank Davis (29-0, 27 KOs) in hopes of him throwing a bone to him for a badly-needed rematch to provide him one other final payday or if he believes he shall be victorious tonight.
It’s no secret that the previous WBA mild 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 best way that Rolly appeared in that battle and in his match earlier than that, it’s tough to image him going a lot additional with what’s left of his profession with out a miracle, as we noticed along with his controversial stoppage win over Ismael Barroso in Might 2023.
