After winning titles at super featherweight and lightweight, Gervonta Davis is officially set to challenge WBA “world” super lightweight champion Mario Barrios on June 26th in the main event of a four-fight Showtime pay-per-view.
Davis (24-0, 23 KO) took the IBF super featherweight title from Jose Pedraza in 2017 and defended it with a three-round wipeout of Liam Walsh, only to lose it on the scales against Francisco Fonseca. He went on to claim the WBA belt in the division, move up to 135 to smash Yuriorkis Gamboa for the “world” belt, and defend both at the same time via cretinous WBA shenanigans with a Knockout of the Year candidate against Leo Santa Cruz last October.
