Ryan Garcia and Gervonta Davis gave it their all inside the boxing ring this past weekend. The two boxing sensations fought in arguably the biggest fights of their respective professional careers and their performances displayed their caliber.

However, the tense build-up and heated animosity between the two boxers immediately cooled down after the fight. Davis knocked down Garcia early on and held his nerve to finish 'KingRy' in the seventh round with a body shot that rendered him unable to get up before the count.

After the main event fight, the two fighters were recorded catching up in the middle of the empty arena. The duo seemingly exchanged phone numbers and had a brief light-hearted conversation.

They posed for more pictures after their brief but wholesome interaction and were received with loud cheers and applause from the remainder of the people in attendance.
