Davis confirmed the news on Friday by tweeting: \u201cApril 22, 2023 Las Vegas It\u2019s on! \u00a0#DavisGarcia GOOOOO.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davis, 28, is the WBA world lightweight champion with a record of 28-0 and 26 wins by knockout. Though he stands only 5-foot-5, he is one of boxing\u2019s hardest punchers, succeeding in the super featherweight, lightweight, and super lightweight divisions.<\/p>\n

Garcia, 24, is 23-0 with 19 KOs. He will enjoy a 5-inch advantage in height, as well as 3 inches in reach. However, he has not fought since July 15, 2022, when he knocked out Javier Fortuna in the 6th round at Crypto.com Arena in LA.
\nThe two popular boxers agreed to fight at a catch weight of 136 pounds.<\/p>\n

According to boxingnews24.com,<\/em> Davis is earning most of the money for their first match, but Garcia plans to receive a better deal in the rematch by winning \u2014 an outcome that most boxing fans don\u2019t expect to happen.<\/p>\n

Years in the Making<\/b><\/h2>\n

This match has been years in the making, with both knockout artists calling for it while accusing the other of ducking out. After finally agreeing this past November, Davis fought one interim bought, defeating Hector Luis Garcia by a 9th-round technical knockout on January 8 at Capitol One Arena in Washington, DC.<\/p>\n

Oscar De La Hoya\u2019s Golden Boy Promotions proposed a fight for Garcia against Mercito Gesta (33-3-1, 17 KOs) on January 28. However, Garcia opted to keep his eyes on the bigger prize.<\/p>\n

After photos surfaced of Garcia training, Davis accused his opponent of using performance-enhancing drugs. \u201cHe never look that big before,\u201d Davis wrote in a now-deleted tweet. \u201cHe definitely on something.\u201d<\/p>\n

Davis is no stranger to out-of-the-ring controversy himself. On February 16, he pleaded guilty in a Baltimore courtroom to four motor vehicle charges related to a hit-and-run in November 2020. (He won\u2019t be sentenced until after May 5, though, so his sentence won\u2019t interfere with the fight.)<\/p>\n
