Let’s take a look at all of Tank’s knockouts and what makes each one a standout moment in his incredible career.

 Gervonta Davis vs. Cristobal Cruz (2014)

The beginning of Tank’s knockout journey can be traced back to his fight against Cristobal Cruz in 2014. It was early in Davis’ professional career, but this fight showed the boxing world that he had the potential to be a force. Davis won the bout with an impressive TKO victory in the 8th round, using his speed and precision to overwhelm Cruz. Although it wasn’t a one-punch knockout, it was a clear sign that Davis’ power could wear down opponents over time. Cruz didn’t have the defense to handle Tank’s aggressive and fast-paced style.

 Gervonta Davis vs. José Pedraza (2017)

One of Davis’ early career milestones came in 2017 when he faced José Pedraza for the IBF super featherweight title. Pedraza was a solid champion, but Tank’s power was something else entirely. In the 7th round, Davis dropped Pedraza with a crushing left hand that left the Puerto Rican on the canvas. He finished the fight with a TKO victory, becoming a world champion at just 22 years old. It was a statement win, showing that Davis was a legitimate threat at 130 pounds and that his knockout power was not to be underestimated.

 Gervonta Davis vs. Liam Walsh (2017)

Just a few months after his victory over Pedraza, Tank defended his title against Liam Walsh in May 2017. Walsh came into the fight undefeated, but he had never faced anyone with the raw power that Davis possessed. The fight ended in the 3rd round with a spectacular TKO victory after Davis knocked Walsh down with a brutal left uppercut. The knockout was a thing of beauty—quick, explosive, and clean. The world took notice of Tank’s ability to end fights early and with devastating precision.

 Gervonta Davis vs. Francisco Fonseca (2017)

In his next bout, Davis faced Francisco Fonseca in a highly anticipated clash in August 2017.

The body shot was a clean, precise punch that left Fonseca unable to continue. Tank’s ability to land such devastating blows to the body is one of the key reasons why he’s such a feared fighter in the division. This was a fight that made it clear Tank wasn’t just about head-hunting; he could finish you in multiple ways.

Gervonta Davis vs. Hugo Ruiz (2019)

In February 2019, Davis faced Hugo Ruiz, stepping into the ring for the vacant WBA World Super Featherweight title.

The fight was over before it even had a chance to get going, and Davis earned his second world title in as dominant a fashion as possible. The speed and ferocity of the knockout were chilling, reinforcing the idea that Tank had some of the most dangerous power in the division.

Gervonta Davis vs. Yuriorkis Gamboa (2019)

In December 2019, Davis faced the experienced veteran, Yuriorkis Gamboa, in one of his most anticipated fights. The bout was expected to be competitive, but Davis proved that his youth, speed, and power were simply too much for the aging Gamboa. Tank broke Gamboa down over the course of the fight, and in the 12th round, he delivered a devastating left hand that knocked Gamboa to the canvas. Gamboa struggled to continue, and Davis earned a TKO victory to retain his WBA Lightweight Championship. It was a statement win, demonstrating not only Tank’s knockout power but his ability to close out a fight in the later rounds.

Gervonta Davis vs. Leo Santa Cruz (2020)

Leo Santa Cruz was a seasoned champion, and his fight against Gervonta Davis in October 2020 was billed as a battle between a skilled boxer and a knockout artist. Santa Cruz’s combination of speed and technique made him a tough puzzle for many fighters, but Tank made his intentions clear. In the sixth round, Davis caught Santa Cruz with a picture-perfect uppercut that landed clean and dropped the former champion. The knockout was a thing of beauty—one punch that sealed the fate of Santa Cruz. It was one of Davis’ most spectacular knockouts and showed that he could finish opponents with one punch from almost any angle. The knockout was a statement that Tank wasn’t just about power but also about precision and timing.

 Gervonta Davis vs. Mario Barrios (2021)

In June 2021, Tank moved up to the 140-pound division to face Mario Barrios for the WBA Super Lightweight Title. Barrios, a tall and skilled fighter, was expected to give Davis problems with his reach and power. However, Tank proved his class with an incredible 11th-round knockout. Davis had been down on the scorecards but showed his ability to dig deep and land the perfect punch when it mattered most. After some back-and-forth exchanges, Tank landed a vicious right hook followed by a barrage of punches that forced Barrios to the canvas. It was another instance where Tank’s killer instinct and finishing ability were on full display. The knockout earned Davis the WBA World Super Lightweight title, cementing his status as one of the most dangerous fighters in boxing.

 Gervonta Davis vs. Rolando Romero (2022)

In May 2022, Tank Davis faced the undefeated Rolando “Rolly” Romero, a trash-talking, hard-hitting challenger who had been calling for a fight with Davis for years.

It was a moment of absolute power and precision, showing that Davis could not only outbox his opponents but also knock them out in the blink of an eye.
