Gervonta Davis maintained his undefeated record with an explosive two-punch knockout against Frank Martin in Las Vegas this past weekend, marking Martin’s first career loss.

In the initial rounds, ‘The Ghost’ Martin showcased his agility by dodging significant punches, landing shots on Davis, and even marking his face. However, Martin’s quest for the WBA Lightweight World Title ended in the eighth round when Davis trapped him in the corner and unleashed a powerful combo that Martin couldn’t recover from.

Post-fight, ‘Tank’ was asked who he considered the hardest puncher in boxing, pound-for-pound. Given the options of himself, Japanese phenom Naoya Inoue, and undefeated knockout champion Artur Beterbiev, his response was predictable.

Davis’ knockout of Martin was the 28th of his professional career, with only German Ivan Meraz and Isaac Cruz managing to go the distance, though they still lost. Davis, known for his patience and skill in finding openings for his lethal left hand, is considered one of boxing’s most powerful punchers.

Fans are keen to see if he can achieve a similar knockout against elite opponents like Shakur Stevenson, who has requested a unification fight. Additionally, ‘Tank’s team is reportedly in preliminary talks with Top Rank for a match against Vasily Lomachenko, another talented champion confident in his ability to avoid Davis’ knockout blows.

Gervonta Davis, fresh off his latest knockout victory, continues to solidify his reputation as one of boxing’s most formidable punchers. His identification of the hardest hitter in the sport further highlights his deep understanding of the competition. As fans eagerly anticipate his potential matchups with elite fighters like Shakur Stevenson and Vasily Lomachenko, Davis’ insight into the hardest punchers underscores the respect and awareness he holds for his peers.
