The night in Las Vegas culminated in a spectacular knockout, wrapping up an electrifying series of fights.
Gervonta Davis successfully defended his WBA lightweight title against Frank Martin in the main event, delivering a highlight-reel knockout in the eighth round. This victory extends Davis' undefeated record to 30-0, with 28 of those wins coming by knockout. Meanwhile, Martin experiences the first loss of his career, bringing his record to 18-1.
Davis, who hadn't fought since April of the previous year, had a typically slow start. Martin capitalized on this, winning the majority of the early rounds with effective countering against Davis' pressure.
However, Davis began to gain momentum in the middle rounds. In the eighth round, he cornered Martin against the ropes and landed a powerful uppercut, leaving his opponent dazed. With Martin's guard down, Davis delivered a massive left hook that sent Martin to the canvas for the count.
