McGeary, in response to Davis’s win, said,"I hope you stand up like that with me because I'm knocking you out, definitely."
Davis is not at all startled by whatever McGeary had to say, Davis answered him right back by saying "To that I say, 'Good luck.'"
We are looking forward to the match as well!
