On June 15th, the boxing world will converge on Las Vegas for an electrifying night as Gervonta “Tank” Davis defends his WBA lightweight world title against the undefeated Frank Martin. This championship bout will headline a PBC on Prime Video pay-per-view event, marking a crucial step in both fighters’ careers. Davis, who boasts a flawless 29-0 record with a recent victory over Ryan Garcia, remains one of the sport’s biggest attractions and looks to further solidify his dominance. Martin, a rising star with an 18-0 record, faces the toughest challenge of his career as he vies for his first world title.

With high stakes and star power, this double-header promises to deliver a night of thrilling, high-level boxing action.
