“We Should Have Fought” Gervonta Davis Reveals His Ultimate Dream Match

Gervonta Davis always makes headlines when he has a microphone in his hand, and this time was no exception. The boxer was a guest on ‘A Safe Place Podcast’, where he talked about everything and, as usual, Gervonta did not hold back and had no filter in giving his opinions

His use of social media, especially X, is somewhat controversial as he even messes with the haters who attack him on Elon Musk’s social network. He is quite a character, but in the ring he is one of the best in the world, that cannot be debated

The famous rapper Lil Yachty was very blunt in questioning Gervonta about whether his upcoming fight with Lamont Roach would be the last of his career.

The boxer left a response that reassured those familiar with the sport:

“I have more plans. Definitely some more heads on the wall,” Gervonta commented

Without a doubt, this will give his fans peace of mind, as he always threatens with the idea of hanging up his gloves and not returning.

‘Tank is sorry’

“In the back of my mind. I was like, ‘Damn, he was a fighter that I was supposed to fight. Or I was asked to fight,'” said Gervonta.

Who is he talking about? ‘Tank’ refers to Vasyl Lomachenko. Last year they were very close to closing negotiations for that fight, but everything went downhill once the Ukrainian decided to pause his career

However, Davis does not endorse those who criticized Lomachenko for not accepting the proposal and is very sure that it is not about ‘fear‘:

“I felt like he didn’t like people saying he was scared or something like that. I thought I don’t think that’s the case,” the Baltimore boxer said

In this case, ‘Tank’ is on the Ukrainian’s side in thinking more about his family: “Now he’s older and has kids. Now it’s more about the kids. I feel like, you know, all that energy. I mean, we still want to make money, but now 80% is about the kids,” he said

On the other hand, a retirement for Loma would be very close according to his ideas, he placed December 2024 as his date to stop being a professional boxer, for now he still does not speak out and only leaves intrigue to the world of boxing.

Gervonta Davis: There Are Common Chances of beating Shakur Stevenson rated in bold prediction

Shakur Stevenson’s chances of beating Gervonta Davis have been brutally played down.

Stevenson was able to stop late replacement and part-time electrician Josh Padley in a hard-fought win in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in his most recent fight.

The American continues to eye a mega-fight with boxing superstar Davis, who is in action this coming weekend in a showdown with Lamont Roach in Brooklyn.

Gervonta Davis has refused to commit to a showdown with Stevenson so far, and has even suggested he could retire from the sport in 2025.

Despite the doubts over the fight materialising, the pair continue to get thrust together given their unique clash of styles.

And in the latest episode of talkBOXING assessing Stevenson’s latest performance, Spencer Oliver suggested Davis would simply be levels above Stevenson if the pair meet.

He said: “Stevenson has that safety first approach, the one that works for a boxing purist.

“But the one he hasn’t got is that punching power. He has got that Mayweather kind of safety-first style.

“But we live in the entertainment world today. And in terms of superstar status, Gervonta Davis takes him out.

Gervonta Davis Finally Faces the Question Everyone’s Been Afraid to Ask

Gervonta Davis sent a shockwave down the boxing world when he took to the stage to promote the Lamont Roach Jr. fight. Many expected him to lay out a plan for a more productive 2025—more fights, activity, and hopefully some big events under his GTD promotions. But it all came crashing down when the fans realized it was an announcement of his retirement.

Davis, 30, will stand across from Roach Jr., 29, on March 1, where he will defend his WBA title for the second time. The fans expected him to carry on the momentum he got from the Frank Martin fight this June. Instead, he gave fans an ultimatum—he is on his last run in boxing, which will end in 2025. He declared, “After next year, I’m out of it… Out of the sport.”

But why is ‘Tank’ eager to bask in the comforts of a retirement life when he’s only 30? What about the fans and the ambition to put on a show for them? It seems it’s all getting a bit too boring for Davis. He expressed his candid opinions about his retirement call when he appeared in an interview with Fight Hub TV.

he lost interest in the sweet science and grew weary of it. He declared, “It’s trash… This sh-t is trash, garbage… Fed up. Fed up with whole sh-t.”

These comments wouldn’t sit well with most fans, especially with those who campaigned and demanded he take up tougher fights and fight the best in the division. However, Davis found solace in making strategic calls, making money, and doing what he liked the most—knocking out opponents. The question remains: how will the fans remember the Baltimore native and how wil

Gervonta Davis: casting judgment on his legacy

Davis addressed the same question when he had a conversation with Fight Hype. When asked about whether he would insert his name among the greatest, the WBA champion disclosed, “I don’t even care about that, bro. I don’t even care about that, and where I’m from, bro, I will forever be greatest. I will be a forever G to myself.”

While the fans have only a year to enjoy Davis’ explosive boxing and backflips in the ring, it doesn’t mean his fight with Roach Jr. will be his last. He could squeeze in a couple of fights in 2025 before drawing curtains on his pro career. What’s more?

The lightweight champion is still under a multi-contract with the PBC, which spanned 6-7 fights, and also reportedly had a clause to fight Shakur Stevenson. What will happen to his contractual obligations now? No one is sure now. It remains to be seen how the situation develops and whether Davis is hellbent on sticking to his retirement plan.

What do you make of this comment by Gervonta Davis about his retirement? Do you believe he will hang up his gloves for good? Let us know in the comments below.

Eddie Hearn Stakes Claim for Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis’ Next Fight

One of the more intriguing fights on the 2025 boxing calendar is the fight between Gervonta “Tank” Davis and Lamont Roach Jr. on August 16, which takes place in Las Vegas, Nevada. This bout for Davis’ WBA lightweight belt is a rematch from March 1, when Roach and Davis fought to a controversial majority draw.

The controversy stemmed from Davis taking a knee in the middle of the ninth round without this being called a knockdown by referee Steve Willis. After rising from the knee, Davis went to have his face wiped off by his corner (which is grounds for disqualification), which also went unpenalized. Either of these decisions from Davis receiving the proper consequence would have meant he lost the fight to Roach, thus suffering the first loss of his professional career.

Alas, that was not the case, as “Tank” managed to escape with a draw and keep his belt. And how the boxing world is keen to see if he’ll produce a better showing against Roach in this second bout.

If Davis does win, there are a plethora of potential opponents he could face. Perhaps the most popular pick would be WBC lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson, who faces William Zepeda on July 12.

And in a July 2 interview, Matchroom Boxing chairman Eddie Hearn (who is promoting Shakur for this upcoming fight) made a strong statement about a potential bout between Shakur and Davis.

“I think [Shakur is] going to want to have those big fights. Gervonta Davis against Shakur is another tremendous fight. One of the best in the sport. Let’s get next Saturday dealt with [and] won and that will be the crowning moment for Shakur Stevenson,” Hearn said.

Hearn certainly isn’t alone in wanting to see Shakur and Tank finally fight after having circled each other for years.

Maryland Court Issues Verdict in Gervonta Davis’ Financial Dispute With Ex-Manager

A court has sided with Gervonta Davis in his monetary dispute with former manager.

WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis was recently involved in a legal battle with former manager Wayne Roy and creditor Kevin Batiste.

Back in October 2013, Davis signed a five-year agreement with Roy, agreeing that the manager would receive 15% of all fight-related earnings. However, by February 2014, Davis and the pair would agree to end thier working relationship.

A release agreement was reached where Davis had to pay Roy and Batiste $35,000 over the next two years. However, in 2017, they filed a case against ‘Tank’, claiming they were paid only $2,000. When Davis failed to show up to court, the Judge entered a default order against him finding him in breach of contract.

Davis eventually would pay Roy and Batiste $468,000 to settle the case. However, Roy and Batiste never recorded the judgement satisfied and didn’t inform the court of any agreement. Instead, they continued discovery in the case and eventually requested additional payments from Davis for his subsequent fights.

The court has now ruled on the case, finding Gervonta Davis free of any obligation to make additional payments. The court’s chief judge Gregory Wells wrote

Once Davis paid the $468,000, the judgment was satisfied, and there was no longer a money judgment to modify. If there is no money judgment to modify, Creditors cannot continue to pursue post-judgment discovery against Davis for a ‘hypothetical or potential money judgment.’

Gervonta Davis last fought in March and had a controversial majority draw against Lamont Roach. ‘Tank’ and Roach will now face off again in a rematch according to widespread reports. Any official announcement on the matter is yet to come.

Despite Glaser’s claims, members of Gervonta “Tank” Davis’ team have pushed back, with trainer Kenny Ellis dismissing the report as “fake news.”

As things stand, Gervonta Davis‘ boxing future is murkier than ever. No one know what exactly is going through the mind of “Tank“, but the idea of walking away from the sport has weighed on him over the past year. He first mentioned the possibility before his fight against Frank Martin in June of 2024.

A middling performance against a surprising Lamont Roach Jr. has some high-profile boxers lining up to get a shot at Tank. Shakur Stevenson is the biggest one of them all, putting pressure on Davis through the media space. It’s a fight fans want to see, but Stevenson may never actually get the chance, because Davis might not fight again

Gervonta Davis reportedly is retiring from boxing… or is he?

Boxing agent and insider Rick Glaser dropped a bombshell this week, claiming that Davis is retiring because he is “supposedly fed up with boxing”. Glaser believes he won’t fight again, at least until “his money runs low”. Glaser cited “several very reliable sources”, so it’s not just a random report.

Despite Glaser’s insistence, members of Tank’s team have come out to dispute it. One of his trainers, Kenny Ellis, called it “fake news”.

No one is quite sure what to make of all of it, but clearly Davis’ future is fully up in the air. By the sound of it, Davis is just waiting for a big-money offer in order to make a decision on how he will continue his career.

In the meantime, he has legal troubles he has to get through anyway. Until those are resolved, he won’t be fighting in a ring anytime soon.
