Gervonta Davis vs Rolando Romero: Storylines and Head-to-Head

Both fighters have a very high KO percentage (85% for Romero and 92% for Davis), which means that the probability of the fight ending this way is very high. This can lead to two possible readings of the fight: first, that the two go for the KO knowing the power of their fists; or second, knowing both the power of their rival, they decide to be more careful and launch a smaller number of blows.
If it is the first case, the fight will be unknown. The first fighter to land a power punch could win. If it were the second case, Gervonta Davis would have an advantage given his greater experience (12 more fights difference against top level rivals the vast majority of the time). That’s why Romero shouldn’t go into that type of fight and look to hurt Davis.
