Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis appears to have made the final decision on his future after tying with Lamont Roach Jr.

The 30-year-old from Baltimore, Maryland, retained his WBA lightweight title after the fight ended in a majority draw, although many fans and pundits were outraged that the challenger was not awarded the victory after his incredible performance at the Barclays Center in New York.

Perhaps the most controversial moment of the entire fight came in the ninth round, when ‘Tank’ Davis sensationally took a knee although referee Steve Willis decided not to consider it a knockdown, a decision that has been described as a huge mistake by much of the boxing community.

In light of his extremely disappointing performance on Saturday night, Davis has now spoken out and addressed the situation surrounding his potential retirement from the sport, which he previously claimed could come as early as late 2025 with just two more fights after Roach.

Speaking at the post-fight press conference, the 30-year-old revealed that his retirement plans have actually changed following his draw against Roach and he is planning at least four more fights.

“Yeah, it definitely changed my plans, it definitely changed my plans. I probably have four more fights now.”

‘Tank’ admitted in late 2024 that he had become “tired” of boxing, prompting his decision to predict he could walk away from boxing within 12 months. These plans have now been scuppered by Roach, who revealed shortly after his impressive performance against Davis that he is interested in potentially facing WBC lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson if he is unable to secure a rematch.
