Teddy Atlas is the latest boxing figure to heap praise on Gervonta Davis following his destructive stoppage over Ryan Garcia last month.
Davis dropped his rival in the second session before taking over the fight and finally ending matters in the seventh session thanks to a well-timed body shot that Garcia couldn’t recover from.
The result raised Davis’ standing in the sport significantly and now the world is waiting to see what the Baltimore man does next.
Plenty of options currently exist for Davis, and Atlas, one of the sport’s most renowned voices, is a huge admirer of ‘Tank’ and he’s even gone as far to label him a ‘complete fighter.’
“‘Tank’ is a hell of a fighter. I don’t love the things we hear about him in his personal life, but I don’t know any more about it than is put out there,” said Atlas on The Fight podcast.
“He’s a complete freakin’ fighter, mentally, technically, every way. He can go get you, he can counter punch, he can control you on the outside, he’s patient, he’s mentally solid, he’s cerebral and he can punch like hell.”
