But despite the malicious intent to destroy his opponent inside the ring, Davis showed sportsmanship and professionalism after the fight as he checked on Santa Cruz to make sure he is okay.
His victory was heard around the globe. Famous personalities from different sports lauded Davis on his fantastic performance.
The fighter under the supervision of the unbeaten retiree Mayweather is quickly becoming a superstar in boxing. Thus, he will make a case soon enough for the pound-for-pound king.
