Gervonta Davis has expressed that he’s willing to fight Ryan Garcia again, promising to “tax his a**” in the rematch, but only if he’s offered $150 million. This is the price he’s set for the fight, and he’s not willing to engage with Garcia unless that amount is agreed upon and sent his way.

In their first fight two years ago, Davis (30-0, 28 KOs) knocked out Garcia in the seventh round. However, this victory came with weight-related stipulations, including a 136-pound catchweight and a 10-pound rehydration limit.
Garcia (24-1, 20 KOs) surprisingly agreed to these conditions, which proved to be his downfall. He appeared weak and sickly in the ring, likely due to the weight restrictions. Davis and his team were able to exploit Garcia’s naivety, as he was desperate to make the fight happen.
Now, Davis is making it clear that for the rematch to be considered, he needs that $150 million offer. On Instagram, he boldly stated, “I’ll tax that a** again. Tell them boys to give me $150 m’s. I’m coming. Tell them to send that bag and I’m coming.”
However, for the rematch to actually happen, Davis will likely need to adjust his financial demands and potentially drop the weight restrictions that would give him an advantage over Garcia.
Since their first fight, Ryan Garcia’s popularity has surged, making him more of an “A-side” in the negotiations, whereas Davis’ profile has stayed relatively stagnant. If Turki Al-Shiekh gets involved, Davis might get a $30 million payout, which is a more realistic figure for a potential fight.
Davis has only fought once since his win over Garcia, a bout with Frank Martin, and has made questionable decisions since then, like choosing to face Lamont Roach on March 1st. Many believe Davis’ reluctance to take more meaningful fights is due to a lack of ambition, fear, and perhaps even laziness. He’s been avoiding the risks necessary to boost his popularity and secure bigger opportunities, allowing inertia to hold him back from making significant moves in his career.
