It has been confirmed that the Gervonta Davis next fight will see the undefeated 30-0 boxing superstar face Lamont Roach in a lightweight contest. The bout is set to take place on March 1st in Brooklyn, with ‘Tank’ looking for the biggest fights after that.
Gervonta Davis Next Fight: ‘Tank’ Faces Lamont Roach On March 1st In Lightweight Contest
Gervonta Davis is without any shadow of a doubt one of the biggest stars in the sport of boxing right now. The American lightweight fighter is widely regarded as one of the best fighters on the planet, not to mention being one of the most concussive punchers pound-for-pound.
With 2025 now here, talk of when fans might see Gervonta Davis back in action is rife. It has been confirmed that ‘Tank’ will return to action for his next fight on March 1. Not only has it been confirmed that Davis is back in action in early 2025, but his next opponent has also been confirmed.
Gervonta Davis’ next fight sees him take on Lamont Roach in a 135-pound contest at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The 30-year-old is set for his first fight of the year in early March, against a man who has only tasted defeat once and is a former world title challenger himself.
As previously mentioned, Davis’ record sits at a perfect 30-0 as of today, consisting of 28 knockout victories and just two decision wins. The American is arguably one of the biggest stars in US boxing, as well as being one of the most accomplished and well-rounded.
At just 30-years-old, Davis has already conquered both the super-featherweight and lightweight division. He has beaten fighters such as Ryan Garcia, Leo Santa Cruz and Mario Barrios already, as well as being universally recognised as the world’s best 135-pound fighter on BoxRec.
It comes as no surprise to learn that Gervonta Davis’ next fight sees him as a comprehensive favourite with the best UK betting sites. Not only that, but the American is fully expected to stop Roach in emphatic fashion, setting up some mammoth fights later in the year and beyond.
Could Gervonta Davis Fight Shakur Stevenson Or Vasyl Lomachenko After Roach?
Although the Gervonta Davis next fight is yet to have taken place, boxing fans are already talking about what could come after that. Whether that be unifications at lightweight with some of the other belt holders, or indeed other fights against some big names in different weight divisions.
With that in mind, fights with fellow belt holders such as Shakur Stevenson or Vasyl Lomachenko could be on the cards for Gervonta Davis’ next fight after Lamont Roach. If ‘Tank’ beats Roach in devastating fashion, he could be on course for a mammoth fight in the summer with either of those two names.
WBO World Lightweight Title holder Denys Berinchyk is of course another option for Davis, but the Lomachenko and Shakur Stevenson fights make more sense financially.
The fight with Shakur Stevenson seems like it could finally happen in 2025. Matchroom Boxing and Eddie Hearn recently signed Stevenson, and have been mentioning Davis’ name for a summer showdown. They may well get their wish, unless the American loses to Floyd Schofield and ‘Tank’ explore other options.
Should this Stevenson fight happen, the best boxing betting sites in the UK would find it hard to split them, with both fighters undefeated. Stevenson posses the better skill and boxing IQ, but the power advantage is most definitely with Davis. The fight would be a compelling watch and one of the biggest of 2025.
If Saudi Arabia boxing chief His Excellency Turki Alalshikh gets involved, all of these aforementioned fights could genuinely happen going forward. Fingers crossed boxing fans get their wish!
