The ref did his job and it was just a matter of time. I used my boxing IQ tonight and picked my shots, and when I picked my shots I got him out of there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m still on the rise. I became a champion super fast, but I\u2019m still rising and there\u2019s more to come.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong><br \/>\nFLOYD MAYWEATHER, JR. QUOTES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought it was going to take a couple more rounds to get Liam Walsh out of there. But Gervonta did it early. Hats off to Walsh. He\u2019s a tough competitor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are going to let these young fighters fight. Gervonta is young and hungry. We will get him back in the ring in a few months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf me and Conor McGregor get in the ring, and I believe it will happen, I\u2019d love to have Gervonta Davis on the undercard. I would also like Badou Jack to be on the undercard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had a great career and my career may not be over. Number 50 may be against Conor McGregor but we\u2019ll just have to wait and see.<\/p>\n<p>But tonight is Tank Davis\u2019 night and he put on a spectacular performance. You have to give him an A-plus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>LIAM WALSH QUOTES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s very fast, very active, but that was too quick. He won fair and square, but sometimes they stop the fight too early. I never got an opportunity. I\u2019m not saying the result would be different, but give me a chance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d love to fight him again. I\u2019d fight him for next to nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VnXYJQCtUv8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gervonta Davis went on the road in the first defense of his IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship and made a statement with an emphatic third round TKO of previously undefeated local favorite Liam Walsh in the opening bout of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING from Copper Box Arena in London.
