The PPV undercard has been announced for the clash between three-division world champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis’ and “Kingry” Ryan Garcia on Saturday, April 22 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The pay-per-view telecast will begin at 8PM ET/5PM PT and features WBA super middleweight “regular” champion David Morrell Jr. (8-0, 7 KOs) battling Sena Agbeko (27-2, 21 KOs) in the co-main event. The action will also see a rematch between super middleweight “King” Gabriel Rosado (26-16, 15 KOs) and “Bully” Bektemir Melikuziev (11-1, 9 KOs) in a 10-round showdown. Kicking off the telecast will be hard-hitting 19-year-old middleweight Elijah Garcia (14-0, 12 KOs) facing Kevin Salgado (15-1-1, 10 KOs) in a 10-round showdown.
I don’t know why I get my hopes up and expect a card worthy of my cash…shame on me
Only thing that will happen is that Morrell will win and call out Benavidez and hype the boxing fans into feeling good about this undercard, SMH
Rosado has much mileage on his engine from many past fights. A person has to wonder the long-term consequences on his health even being at a younger age.
He takes alot of punches and has almost no footwork at all. Blocks about 50% of power punches and the rest usually land flush. Shocking he continues to fight this way.
I’m assuming they’re paying Rosado very well for this fight because I heard him say he wasn’t interested in Bek again.
Looking forward to seeing Garcia again.
Oscar I think was keeping a promise to Rosado after the Ramirez fall out. It was likely the only fight that could get Rosado a decent pay! I have seen worse undercards under big fights. I think the Canelo vs Plant card only had Dirrell as a recognizable name.
Boxing fans oops, a fool and their money are soon separated.
“Boxing fans oops, a fool and their money are soon separated.”
– Not for us Boxing fans (fools) that have an Amazon Fire Stick….
Good card! Will be watching this free at the local bar.
we, as “fans” will be held responsible for Gabe Rosado being injured for life after his career is done. Taking a punch for money is simply demeaning the sport down to blood sport and we should protest this crap . WE are the paying public..
Rosado can take responsibility for his own life. I own him nothing.
Try ballet.
Sounds like you are going to be taking over for me rosando best wishes on the fight
As for me I don’t care about other fights I just want to watch tank vs Garcia I’m ready for this I wish this fight be held tomorrow night I can’t wait anymore
The undercard is less than average and the solely reason of that is the attention centered on the main event. Dirty promoter maneuvers that hopefully will discourage a good number of people to buy this overpriced event.
This is the undercard you get when the main event sucks up all the cash. How will Morrell ever handle not fighting in Minneapolis
Days of McClellan Jackson, Chavez Randall, azumah Nelson leija and Simon Brown Terry Norris same card are done. At least thjs card has recognizable names..Rosado knocked guy out so that could be alright
WHY would an event like this that will get new eyes on boxing with $20,000 seats present such an underwhelming undercard? What a wasted opportunity to gain new fans. Boxing needs to learn a thing or two from UFC about undercards.
Do it again Gabe!
Yes, after getting a cancellation & training Rosado still wants a paycheck so he will take the rematch and GBP will again avert paying a more deserving fighter a higher paycheck by throwing in Gabe another time. Worse yet is that if Bek wins by UD in a rematch, GBP will still want to book a “trilogy” and play it up like it’s something big….
Nothing against David Morrell but WBA wants the “regular” champ elimination process to take a generation or two.. I’m curious what the record is for non-title fights in a row that are PPV only when the A side is deemed a PFP fighter.. So we are on 4-5 in a row. This fight will reveal what the fighters are made of, but you wonder what the promoters are doing or if they flat out don’t care about depriving many people from the fight as the last 4 PPV’s ranged between only 200K-250K buys. That’s a clear single. I think they just don’t care and want the 16-18M PPV revenue. I’ll just watch it somewhere else.
what a trash undercard, hopefully the main event is worth it and not an overhyped fight that turns into a fizzle
An ordinary card indeed.
