Gervonta Davis methodically broke down the previously unbeaten Hector Luis Garcia at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. for a ninth-round stoppage.

'Tank' hurt him with a southpaw left hand late in the eighth round. Visibly shaken on his way back to the corner, Garcia stayed on his stool as the bell for round nine rang. Moments later, his trainer Bob Santos advised referee Albert Earl Brown to stop the fight, with the official stoppage coming 13 seconds into round nine.

“God willing I’m ready for the fight with Ryan Garcia,” said Davis. “It’s scheduled for April. I’m here. He’s been training. He’s been talking. And let’s see who’s really about that.”
