After a 14-month hiatus since his knockout victory over Ryan Garcia, Davis looks to reassert his dominance in the lightweight division. Meanwhile, Martin’s selection as Davis’s opponent, following a less-than-stellar performance against Artem Harutyunyan, has raised eyebrows and speculation about the matchmaking strategy. With the pay-per-view price anticipated to hover around the $70 mark, fans are hopeful for a compelling undercard to complement this eagerly awaited main event.
