        Based on what? I mean Erroll Spence is very similar to Davis, similar age, in a more well renowned weight class, very fun and exciting fighter yet he doesn't have nearly any of the buzz of Gervonta. Y'all mfs needa stop. Davis is a household name primarily because of Floyd. He's not a big talker, he doesn't have an Olympic pedigree. He got where he was in large part because of his stamp and Floyd's protege

            Bro, I give Floyd some credit too, but the boxing fans are mostly attracted to Gervonta's style and attitude. You seem to give all the credit to Floyd. People see Davis as a special fighter in his own right. Floyd IS lucky to be close to him at this point. Floyd brings a lot of hate to Davis too from other people. Goes both ways.

              Mayweather is all about himself! So any fighter thinking about signing with You will always be number two.

                  He was real with his fighter and told him he was down on the unofficial card, how is that a bad thing? That woke up Tank and he took out his opponent in the next round.

                  I like the fact that he didn't sugar coat it, he said the same thing about Wilder in his first fight with Fury, about how he was 5 rounds down. And of course Wilder called him a "Hater" etc after he heard.

                  People just want cheerleaders for boxers, some boxers need a dose of reality and Mayweather gave that to Tank.

                    I think he is doing the right thing with Davis. Davis is a hype job anyway, Floyd must keep the hype alive as long as possible.

                      He shouldn't talk over the corner. But aside from that, seems like he's built Tank's popularity well, I'm not sure Arum/Hearn/Oscar would've done as well at making him a ticket seller/TV attraction
