Gervonta Davis steps up in the biggest fight of his career on Saturday against veteran Leo Santa Cruz in a battle for the WBA super featherweight and lightweight titles.

With Teofimo Lopez, Vasiliy Lomachenko, Devin Haney, Ryan Garcia, Luke Campbell and many more in the mix in and around both fighters’ weight, the winner should have many options ahead.
