Gervonta Davis gets the chance to remind fans why he is among the sport's biggest stars after lengthy layoff

'Tank' has incredible starpower in the ring that has not been seen in over a year

If you have watched unbeaten lightweight champion and pay-per-view superstar Gervonta "Tank" Davis closely in recent weeks, it has been hard to miss the size of the massive chips on each of his shoulders that belie his 5-foot-5 ½ frame. 

The 29-year-old Davis (29-0, 27 KOs) will snap the longest layoff of his pro career on Saturday when he defends his WBA title against top 135-pound contender Frank Martin (18-0, 12 KOs) in the main event of a PBC on Prime PPV card from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. 

The event offers no shortage of star power when you consider that two-time super middleweight champion David Benavidez (28-0, 24 KOs) will share the marquee in an intriguing co-main event tilt at 175 pounds against former titleholder Oleksandr Gvozdyk (20-1, 16 KOs) for the interim WBC title. But Davis, who doubles as the one of the 10 pound-for-pound best in the sport, is undoubtedly the main drawing card as he looks to make up for lost time following 14 months on the sideline.
