New Challenger on the Block: "Gervonta, Ready for a Rumble?"
After schooling Chris Colbert in the ring, Mexico's lightweight lightning bolt, Jose Valenzuela, has his sights set on a bigger prize – Gervonta Davis.
"It's all in the plan, thank the boxing gods. I've been cool as a cucumber, waiting my turn. Took down Colbert not once but twice. That was my ticket to the big leagues. Now I'm gunning for the gold. Hey Gervonta, how about we dance under the lights and thrill the crowd? Let's make it a night to remember.
I'm fired up, ready to rumble. I poured my heart and guts into this, and I've had Colbert kissing canvas twice. Deserve's got nothing to do with it – I've earned a bigger scrap. Fans are craving fresh matchups, not reruns. Sure, props to Colbert for the do-over, but a trilogy? Nobody's buying tickets for that show," Valenzuela quipped.
Valenzuela sent his rival packing in the 6th with a jaw-shattering right hook in a display of sheer prowess. Flashback to March, and it was a different story – Colbert snagged the win with the judges nodding his way.
