How to watch PBC boxing on Amazon Prime, odds for 'Tank' Davis vs. Lamont Roach Jr.

Get the scoop before boxing takes over the combat sports calendar in Brooklyn, NY.
Premier Boxing Champions

When UFC Vegas 103 commences Saturday night, boxing fans will be treated to a WBA lightweight title fight between Gervonta Davis and Lamont Roach Jr. at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY, to complete a double-dose weekend of combat sports.

The fight tops a highly-anticipated PBC on Amazon Prime pay-per-view event, which gives “Tank,” a brash Maryland-native, a chance to shine through against the upstart, yet dangerous, Roach Jr.

Davis (30-0, 28 KOs) said Thursday at the final pre-fight presser that fighting, while a career, is not something he puts much stock into, despite being beloved by his fans worldwide.

I’m getting older,” Davis told reporters. “I’d seen a post by Antonio Brown, writing about how he gave his all to the sport, but then he lost his mind giving it. It's always about 'What can we do next?' and never about 'Are you OK? How are you doing?'...I just need time for myself, to grow. And then, hopefully, six months or one year from now, I can come back to the sport and fight these guys.”

Therefore, a win against Roach wouldn’t boost Davis’ confidence, he said, but still shows the mental fortitude to compete at the highest level while taking a needed absence.

“I think I’ll step back first, to better control my [stuff],” Davis added. “I can control [boxing], but all the stuff that comes with it … It’s [about] me being grown enough to take a step back and take the time for me as a person.”

For Roach (25-1, 1, 10 KOs), the timing to defeat ‘Tank’ at the height of his career couldn’t be a greater opportunity.

“I’d been working hard in camp to come out victorious. You know it. It might be better than at 130 [pounds],” Roach said. “Five extra pounds, I don’t got to lose. “I’m not stressing a knockout.”

Regardless of what Davis decides to do following the outcome of the Roach fight, it’s clear the lightweight divisional stakes couldn’t be any higher given boxing’s current state.

The pay-per-view portion gets underway at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT and can be purchased for $79.99 in the U.S. The preceding prelims will stream live on the Premier Boxing Champions' YouTube channel below.
