Who won the Gervonta 'Tank' Davis fight tonight?

'Tank' Davis moved up two weight divisions and handed previously unbeaten WBA 140-pound champion Barrios his first defeat. What Davis lacked in height and size, he made up for in power and speed. The Baltimore native dropped Barrios twice in the eighth round and once again in the 11th round to secure the TKO win. Floyd Mayweather told 'Tank' Davis that he's losing on the unofficial card before the 10th round. The 26-year-old didn't like what his mentor said, but he responded with urgency, making sure the judges didn't have a say in the outcome of the fight. Displaying the heart of the champion, Barrios got up each time 'Tank' Davis sent him to the canvas. However, referee Thomas Taylor saved the Mexican-American from taking unnecessary damage, stepping in at 2:13 of the penultimate round. With the win, 'Tank' Davis captured his third title and improved his record to 25-0. He also scored a second consecutive finish as he's coming off a 'Knockout of the Year' stoppage against Leo Santa Cruz last October.
