Pay-per-view boxing is back in New York for the first time in a nearly a year. This time around, the main event moves fives pounds down from super lightweight to lightweight as WBA Super Featherweight Champion Lamont Roach Jr. moves up in weight to challenge WBA Lightweight Champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis. While this is the first time that they’ve met in the ring as pros, they’re far from strangers. With Davis becoming a standout amateur in Baltimore, Maryland and Roach Jr. making a name for himself in LeDroit Park, they’ve known each other since they were children. However, a lot has changed since they met as amateurs. Davis has become a dynamic boxer and knockout artist while Roach Jr. has bounced back from a defeat against Jamel Herring to become a force to be reckoned with in the super featherweight division. Davis expected to keep his record unblemished while Roach Jr. plans to spoil his plans and move on to a unification bout with Shakur Stevenson.

How To Watch

Time: 9 p.m. EST

Date: Saturday, March 1, 2025

Live Results

Yoenis Tellez v. Julian “J-Rock” Williams

(Selcuk Acar/Anadolu via Getty Images)

Result: Téllez def. Williams — 118-110, 1117-111, 119-109 (UD, 12)

Odds: Tellez (-1600) | Williams (+800)

Stakes: WBA Interim Super Welterweight Champion

Commentary: Téllez soundly beat Williams to remain unbeaten. Through 12 rounds, Williams was able to stand up to the younger fighter’s work rate and power, but was unable to take control of the fight at any point after the first round. Approaching his 35th birthday in April, Williams is still durable, tough and experienced, but it’s hard to see him competing for a world title again in his 10+ year career.

All J Rock gotta do is stay defensively sharp and continue boxing !! I think if he weathers the early storm he can turn the fight around
