Gervonta Davis vs. Frank Martin: Shawn Porter makes prediction ahead of Las Vegas showdown

Gervonta Davis vs. Frank Martin: Shawn Porter makes prediction ahead of Las Vegas showdownEsther Lin/Premier Boxing Champions
The two lightweights go head-to-head tonight.

It's fight day in Las Vegas where one of boxing's biggest names is in action. 

Gervonta 'Tank' Davis returns to the ring for the first time in 14 months when he defends his WBA lightweight title against Frank Martin, and it will be live on Prime Video in both the U.S. and the UK

Davis is the favourite going into the contest, but some respected voices within the sport are backing Martin to give a good account himself against one of boxing's most powerful punchers, including former world welterweight champion Shawn Porter. 

"I think Frank is going to challenge 'Tank'. I think 'Tank' is going to come out, looking comfortable, doing what he does," Porter told Boxing News

"After a couple of rounds, we’re going to see him start picking up his pace and change some things.

"I would not be surprised if he comes out in the first round a little bit faster than we usually see him.

"I expect Frank to be very athletic, very fast, very sharp, very in and out, and I expect this fight to go a lot of rounds, and a lot of those rounds to be close and competitive."
