"I think that it going to the probably deeper rounds but I wind up stopping him. I feel as though that it's gonna take some time breaking him down but because of his body size, but he's definitely getting broke down for sure. It probably don't 'cause he bruise easily, yeah he bruise easily. I mean his face was messed up against somebody that can't hit, so imagine me."

Gervonta Davis trashes Rolando Romero for comparing himself to Marcos Maidana
Gervonta Davis gave Rolando Romero a harsh response for comparing himself to Marcos Maidana. During the final press conference ahead of their fight, 'Rolly' spoke about why he thinks he can beat Davis:
"All 'Tank' does is the same basic a** padwork as everybody else and they all end up getting knocked the f**k out eventually when they run into a puncher. Just like his big bro [Adrien] Broner when he [lost to Marcos Maidana]. Is it gonna be a Broner vs. Maidana 2?"
In response, 'Tank' replied:
"You don't got the skills of Maidana. You don't even got them skills."
Romero believes Davis is an easy fight and thinks he can knock out the WBA (Regular) Lightweight Champion. Saturday night will tell us if 'Rolly' can back up his claims.
