"I smell a rematch coming" - Gervonta Davis' taunt at Ryan Garcia has fans buzzing

WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis recently stirred the pot with a taunt directed at former WBC interim lightweight champion Ryan Garcia. It all began with a viral video showcasing an intense sparring session by Davis, who appeared to dominate his training partner.

A fan couldn't resist the opportunity to chime in:

"Ryan better."

Davis, quick on the trigger, responded by mentioning Garcia in his comment:

"@RyanGarcia do you agree?"

This unexpected taunt by Davis sent fans into a frenzy, speculating about a potential rematch between the two fighters. One enthusiastic fan exclaimed:

"I smell a rematch coming 👃"

Another fan expressed their strong belief in Garcia's abilities:

"Tank Davis. I really hope you see this because you really need to understand. Ryan Garcia knocks you out 9 times out of 10. The only reason Ryan let you win is that he was completely drained. Ryan knocks you out in a rematch. Ryan has more power and faster speed."

Check out some other reactions below:

"Still had to fight Garcia at catch weight and with a rehydration clause. Haney already accomplished more and fought Loma at 24 years old. Biggest win remains Jose Pedraza 7+ years ago"

"Facts. Ryan Garcia is so much better"

"Ryan owns you bro 😭😂"

"Fight @RyanGarcia with NO REHYDRATION CLAUSE. You exposed yourself by saying “ you can’t eat, or drink for 24 hours” 😂"
