Gervonta Davis Fights On Spike TV Friday December 18 In Las Vegas!

Gervonta "Tank" Davis (13-0, 12 KOs) will face Luis Sanchez (17-4-1, 5 KOs) on Friday night, December 18, at the Palms Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. The 10-round fight will be televised on Spike TV. 

A highly regarded prospect who won the 2012 National Gloves championship, the 21-year-old Davis has already recorded four stoppage victories in 2015. Most recently, the Baltimore-native stopped former world champion Cristobal Cruz with a vicious combination in their October fight. Now he is challenged by the 23-year-old Sanchez out of Cancun, Mexico, who hopes to give Davis all he can handle on Friday night.

Gervonta Davis said, "I'm excited to be back in the ring and I'm ready to make my Spike TV debut. I've had a good camp and just ready to show the world more of what I can do. Luis Sanchez will definitely bring a challenge, and I know he will try to bring the fight to me. My team has a great game plan in place for this fight. Thank you to all my fans. Keep supporting me, and I'll fight for you."

Forestville, Maryland Super Lightweight, Mykal “The Professor” Fox (8-0, 2 KOs) dominates Adam “Bad Boy” Maté (18-7, 11 KOs) of Sopron, Hungary.

In a six-round contest 6'4" Forestville, MD super lightweight Mykal "The Professor" Fox put on another solid performance against Adam "Bad Boy" Mate'. Fox came out and established his jab with ease over the shorter Mate'. Fox used that jab to keep his opponent at a distance where he was able to land combinations at will. Throughout the rounds Fox also started using the jab to go to the body of Mate'. 

Mate' tried to close the distance on Mykal Fox but the footwork of Fox proved to be quicker than Mate' was expecting. Fox showed great boxing ability and ring smarts by turning Mate when necessary to keep him off balance.  

In the fifth and sixth rounds Fox was able to continue breaking down the guard of Mate' in a manner that seemed to frustrate the shorter fighter. The performance that Fox put on gave him the unanimous decision win with all three judges scoring the contest 60-54.

Fox starts his Kings Promotions debut at 8-0, two KO's while Adam Mate' falls to 18-7, 10 KO's.
