Gervonta Davis VS Hector Luis Garcia SAT, JAN 07, 2023

[Jawhead999]

Hector Garcia asked his team to stop the bout in 9th round. So they know if he quits Garcia will lose, afaik it's going to be called disqualification but of course, they will just say stoppage. This damages Hector's reputation and will more than likely find it difficult to secure future fights, that's the risk he took for the stoppage.

Nope it's technical knockout since Tank doesn't did any intentional foul, Tank was doing a fair blow since he only punch Garcia body and face, not the back head or did headbutt. If Garcia didn't ask to stop on the 9th round, then high likely he will get knocked out on 10th or 11th round.

If a boxer sustains an injury from a fair blow and the injury is severe enough to terminate the bout, the injured boxer shall lose by TKO. If an intentional foul causes an injury, and the injury is severe enough to terminate the bout immediately, the boxer causing the injury shall lose by disqualification.

Can't physician signal the referee to have the boxer checked?  It is irresponsible for the referee to not notice the damage, ring physician should have stepped in at least.

During old days, there's many unprofessional referee and they're not protect the boxers future career. The most dirty case is Prichard Colon where he become palsied since Terrel Williams have landed multiple back punches.

Again, we can go back to the Margarito vs Pacquiao fight, wherein Robert Garcia should have stop it and it did a permanent damage on Margarito's eye. Broken orbital bone and eye socket that can't be repaired and it ended his career.

Oh yes, that's an example of it.
It should not go that far even if their boxer is still able to fight. One more hit to his eye and it's not just a career-ender but also an eye-blinder event which I don't think he will be happy about.
IMO, it's not a disgrace to surrender but those who can do it are brave enough to admit their defeat.
What Garcia did and his team is the right choice as he still has a title to defend in his next fight with the Super Featherweight title on his waist.
I am sure he will come back strong as he now felt the strength of the upper weight class.

I am very excited for this because I have told everyone many times that Boots Ennis is the boxer who can win against the kings of welterweight, Spence and Crawford.

In any case, my prediction is Boots will knockout Karen in round 1.

Yes, Ennis said that he wanted to make a statement here, it will be a PPV fight (co main event) so everyone is watching him. And if he win big here then for sure the hype train will continue and hopefully it will lead to either Spence or Crawford this year.

This will be a ladder boost for Jaron Ennis to get his place much closer to both Errol Spence and Terence Crawford, but it'll be closer for Spence because he will be the IBF mandatory after his fight against Karen which by the way I don't think that Ennis will lose here against Ukrainian boxer. Critics will be watching him in this bout for sure and defeating Karen will boost his name to call for the champions next.

Yes, I think that will be the perfect scenario for Ennis, beat the Ukrainian, (although he was scary during the face-off), but nevertheless this could be an easy fight for Jaron, might be too strong and too big for Karen.

So yes, a statement win, badly needed by Ennis to send that he will be looking for Spence next as he is the mandatory now.

Maybe Spence will fight Thurman and after his win, its easy Spence vs Boots.

Just as expected, Boots Ennis won the fight against the Ukrainian boxer although it's really not the outcome that I've been expecting because I somehow thought that he would at least defeat Karen with a bang before facing a champion next (either Spence or Crawford). But overall, it was still a good performance for Ennis and from my perspective, it seems that Karen haven't won at least single round.

After this fight, I'm really hoping that Ennis's next fight is against the champion because he already earned his place and now he's the IBF mandatory challenger which means he is much closer to face Spence.

Karen did run though, so Ennis can't do anything because Karen doesn't want to be the next victim of his knockout reel. But as the saying goes, he take the win so it's good enough for his record.

Spence is going to fight Thurman next but there is a catch, it's going to be in 154 lbs. So after that we will see if Spence is willing to give his mandatory a chance against his belt or just move up to 154 lbs. If that happens then probably Ennis as the top contender will have a first crack at the belt. So him and the number 2 will fight for it.

Wait, can Spence really do that? Because as far as I know, it's the WBO who actually ordered the fight and Spence has no belts in super-welter nor did the WBO ordered for a bout in that weight class to make them a mandatory challenger against Jermell Charlo. Correct me if there's something that I missed because this is the first time that I'm hearing this kind of case.

Can't believe Errol Spence nowadays, he's not acting like a professional anymore and chose to bring his grudge against Thurman in other weight class so that if the latter wins, he will have no belts in the end. Hopefully the involved governing bodies will participate in the discussion so that they will end Spence/Al Haymon's hallucination that they can't secure the belts forever.
