Apex Legends Season 3 – Meltdown Battle Pass Overview Trailer 
The hard-hitting, undefeated World Super Featherweight Champion Gervonta Davis powered through Ricardo Nunez with a series of power shots in the second round to KO his opponent.
Davis showed some poise in his homecoming title defense. Nunez brushed him with a little right elbow as they walked by each other after the first round ended Saturday night before a sellout of 14,686 at the Royal Farms Arena.
Davis turned with a smirk, as if he suddenly noticed he was in a fight.
Then “Tank” steamrolled him, pummeling Nunez and forcing referee Harvey Dock to stop the fight at 1:33 of the second round to retain his WBA super featherweight title.
Davis (22-0, 21 KOs) landed two big lefts, then a right that throttled Nunez backwards. Dock stepped in immediately before chancing whether Nunez (21-3, 19 KOs) could continue.
“I saw (Nunez) get hit with a couple of big shots, and I decided to stop it,” Dock said. “I thought Nunez was defenseless at that point—and he was. Tank punched him and he kept on coming. Nunez dropped his hands and he was unable to defend himself so I have to stop the fight.”
As for Davis, he couldn’t have been more pleased. He spoke about going after more titles, namely IBF 130-pound champ Tevin Farmer. But mostly, he was happy he was able to put on a show for his hometown.
“It’s amazing to fight in front of my fans and friends,” Davis said. “It’s not only a win for me, but a win for Baltimore. He wasn’t ready at all times. I took advantage and I took the shot. I caught him with a good shot. I’m only 24 and I’m growing every day. I’m learning and progressing, I’m working.”
If he’s a work in progress, the finished product might be downright scary.
In the first, Davis unveiled his long, sharp jab. The southpaw showed great patience, considering all of the emotion charging the Royal Farms Arena. When the bell ended the round, Nunez threw out a nudge at the hometown guy as he walked back to his corner.
That seemed to grab Davis’ attention. Moments later, it was all over.
“I caught him with a really nice shot. That was it,” Davis said. “I have the WBA belt and I had the IBF. I want Farmer next. Tevin Farmer fought tonight and that fight can be made.”
It began with a flush left cross, followed by several more that snapped Nunez’s head back. Dock stepped in as the challenger sagged against the ropes.
Said Floyd Mayweather, who promotes Davis from his Mayweather Promotions outfit, “Tank is an unbelievable fighter. He’s something special. This is a pay-per-view star. He has the charisma and the will to win. He has a big heart and has a great team behind him.”
