There could be a massive title fight later this year.

Isaac Cruz’s manager believes his fighter could be set to run it back with Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis.

Cruz and Davis fought three years ago, with the current WBA lightweight champion coming out on top, but the fight announced the Mexican to a wider boxing audience due to his credible performance.

Davis is rumoured to be fighting Frank Martin in June to defend his belt, while Cruz’s next clash is with Rolley Romero on March 30 (live on Amazon in the US).

The winner of Cruz vs. Romero would not be mandatory for any fighter, but both would be well placed to line up another fighter as the WBA super lightweight champion, a weight class in which Davis has fought before. Gibbons believes that an impressive showing against Romero would put him in control.

“Pitbull’ will come out of this a star, and if he really whacks ‘Rolly,’ all he has to do is stand up in that ring and ask, ‘Gervonta, what do you want now?’” Gibbons said, reported BoxingScene.com.

“There’s a real mystique about ‘Pitbull,’ and that opportunity to look sensational against ‘Rolly’ exists because [Romero] tends to just stand there … this might be a slow beatdown and a fight that steals the show.”
