A provisional date of June 15 has been set for Davis’ clash against Martin, according to Boxing Scene.
Tank is a huge hit with fans all over the world for his explosive style and unique character, so his return to the ring will no doubt prove popular.
His opponent, though, won’t be a pushover.
Martin boasts an 18-0-0 record and has 12 KOs to his name, and he will be desperate to halt Davis’ run and climb the rankings.
There were strong suggestions that Davis would actually fight Englishman Conor Benn next, with Benn’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, sending an official contract offer to the American.
