Gervonta Davis capped a perfect day with talks of what he believes will be an even brighter future.

Chief among the weekend highlights were a parade in his Baltimore (Maryland) hometown, in honor of the former two-time 130-pound titlist as noted in the themed Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis Day. Hours later came a guest appearance at the hosting table for a Showtime-televised tripleheader in Reading, Pennsylvania, where the unbeaten 24-year old rising star was on hand to discuss his Dec. 28 showdown versus 2004 Olympic Gold medalist and former unified featherweight titlist Yuriorkis Gamboa at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia.

“It’s where I live at now,” Davis (22-0, 21KOs) told Showtime’s Brian Custer in the reasoning behind fighting there at year’s end as opposed to a second straight fight in his original Baltimore hometown. “I thought it was important to bring a title fight back to Atlanta.”

The bout will come with a vacant secondary title at stake, as Davis looks to become a three-time titlist spanning two weight divisions. There were hopes that he would stick around long enough to welcome the arrival of Leo Santa Cruz (36-1-1, 19KOs), now a former three-division titlist who recently vacated his featherweight title to move up in weight. For now, they remain on separate paths, as Santa Cruz will now challenge for Davis’ old title as he faces Miguel Flores (24-2, 12KOs) on the Nov. 23 Fox Sports Pay-Per-View undercard headlined by the heavyweight title fight rematch between Deontay Wilder and Luis Ortiz.

One month later and five pounds north, Davis will continue on his own journey. Assuming both continue to win, he fully believes their paths will soon collide—perhaps not as soon as fans would wish, but at a point where it will be among the biggest fights of the coming year.

“All these guys are calling me out; I don’t want to be cocky but I’m the cash cow for these guys,” insists Davis, who welcomes the challenge of at least one high profile star among that crowd. “But I see a big fight with Leo Santa Cruz.

“We gonna headline a Pay-Per-View. 2020 I definitely see it happening.”
