The immediate rematch is already signed and it remains to be seen when the second fight for the WBA lightweight title will take place. The controversial fight between Gervonta Davis and Lamont Roach Jr.

Debate continues to surround the controversial result in the bout between Lamont Roach Jr and Gervonta Davis - almost a week after a majority draw was declared.

The New York State Athletic Commission announced the result of the Gervonta Davis vs. Lamont Roach fight it reviewed following a major controversy. The NYSAC ruled to uphold the original result of Davis' WBA lightweight title fight against Roach, leaving the controversial majority draw unchanged after a days-long analysis of the bout.

The key moment happened in round nine when, having been hit by a punch from Roach, Davis then waited a moment before taking a knee. He then rushed to his corner and asked for his face to be wiped, later saying that “grease” from his hair was “burning” his eyes.

As Davis holds a WBA title, the WBA sanctioning body has the power to order him to face Roach again, and failure to do so could result in Davis being stripped of his belt. WBA president Gilberto Mendoza indicated to The Ring that he is "poised" to order a second fight between the pair.

Lamont Roach Jnr is glad that his team pursued an appeal of his controversial March 1 draw with Gervonta Davis – but Roach also isn’t shocked that the New York State Athletic Commission declined their appeal.

The New York State Athletic Commission upheld last weekend's Gervonta Davis-Lamont Roach result, which ended in a majority draw after a controversial ninth round, according to a ruling obtained by ESPN on Friday.

Lamont Roach Jr. made his opinion of NYSAC not overturning the draw decision of his Gervonta "Tank" Davis fight extremely clear.
