Gervonta Davis called out Vasyl Lomachenko during his win over George Kambosos on Saturday night.
The Ukrainian lightweight legend was dominant as he finally made his return a year on from his defeat to Devin Haney.

Lomachenko returned with a good win, and now Davis wants to fight him
Lomachenko has often been criticised for starting slow but against Kambosos he got off to a quick start before his 11th-round finish.
The 36-year-old let his hands go early with several fast flurries that snapped back Kambosos’ head as he advanced.
The Australian home favourite gave a valiant effort, but was ultimately overmatched.
In round eleven, a brutal body shot floored him and Lomachenko quickly secured the finish by downing Kambosos once again.

Loma is now the IBF lightweight world champion – and a four-time champ across three weight divisions.
Davis holds the WBA crown and is seemingly looking to unify in the coming months.
A boxing fan posted on social media during the fight: “Gervonta Davis would never fight Vasyl Lomachenko.”
To which Davis replied publicly: “He’s after Frank. Let me get Frank first.”

Davis is finally ready to take on Loma
The ‘Frank’ he is referring to is of course Frank Martin – his opponent on June 15.
This vow from Davis has excited many boxing fans, but infuriated Shakur Stevenson, who has himself been calling for a fight with Tank but been denied by the fact they are represented by different promoters/advisers.
As Lomachenko has also spent his career with the same promoter as him, Stevenson replied to Davis by saying: “He’s on the other side tho.”
Davis responded by suggesting Loma is actually now a free agent.
In the end though, Stevenson tweeted: “They [are] trying to freeze me out. F*** all them, Floyd [Mayweather] told me bout all these n***as.”
