Young Tank is going to show the haters why he's a PPV superstar.

I Luv all these GD haters! Gervonta is one of the most elite guys in boxing and he’s a mean killing machine but yet we still have doubters who somehow thing he’s playing dodge ball. He’s promoted byTMT not GTD, so he doesn’t make all the decisions in his career furthermore this is a business 1st and I would get paid, fool the people secure my life and then step up, not the other way around; who going to take care of me if I’m to get permanent damage. Thank you! No dam body

Looking forward to this. Rolly as always will be throwing for the KO but Davis will catch and sleep him before rd 6

wow - obviously doesn’t take a high stakes competitive matchup to get u excited…and thats such a risky prediction! Is there anyone predicting anything other than a Davis ko against a another can with a Hispanic last name? Ppv for yet another Davis mismatch…ridiculous! This guy is the most protected fighter of this era - bar none. Maybe one day Davis will grow a pair and dare to b great.

Damn
The Hate for Rolly is astronomical in the comments
I actually like the fight but i agree it shouldn't be a Ppv
Saturday night regular Showtime would be fine
But man Finally Rolly gets to back up all that big talk he has
I'm looking foward to the Build up to this Fight because it's gonna be entertaining

Lol! sadly - any bs “build up” will b far better than the obvious huge mismatch itself.

[IRONCHINHAGLER]

Tank Davis is the biggest PPV star in boxing!

lmao - “Canelo” ring a bell?

[BZBEE]

good fight.

[IRONCHINHAGLER]

bro, it's sad that you think because I'm able to pay $60 for a fight I'm interested is seeing is "flaunting" lol

Of course i want the best to always fight the best, but you said "the only way to maximize earning potential is to fight better opposition" which is false. Some of the "better opposition" are fighters people never heard of and would sell less than the Rolly fight. Rolly sucks, but at least he has some buzz to his name because of who he is outside of the ring. You've mentioned Russell Jr...think casuals know who the fooook Russell Jr is?

”who he is outside the ring”…wat a bunch of crap!! Its clowns like Rolly and the Paul Bros who are making a mockery of real boxing…dont support a fight involving someone who creates “buzz” bc of who they are “outside the ring” unless they have already EARNED it INSIDE the ring!

Young Tank is going to show the haters why he's a PPV superstar.

Because he is babied and protected by Floyd/Haymon and fed overmatched cans with Hispanic last names to pad his overrated record.

“Earning it in the ring” -who makes that call? You?

What if someone disagrees that said fighter didn’t “ earn it in the ring”?

I get that Rolly is getting over because he’s a haymon guy and this is the wba where haymon can manipulate things. If you’re mad about that, ok.

But don’t be mad that Rolly actually has created buzz for himself. Instead, you should be telling the guys you feel “earned it” to create buzz of their own so they get premium fights.

That's not always the case. If he fights someone like Russell Jr. That absolutely no one knows except hardcore fans, he would undoubtedly make less. Could say the same for Regis. But i get it, $60 could be too much sometimes. I'm fortunate to be comfortable financially, which is why $60 isn't much. I certainly didn't mean to offend you or anyone else.

Tank is from baltimore and gary is from D.C. plus the fact that russell and mayweather got lowkey beef. Thats a recipe for a great promotion. russell jr vs tank is a huge fight in the dmv. Tank vs rollie isnt a huge fight anywhere. Rollie isnt even a main event fighter. So dont tell me tank vs rollie is a bigger fight than tank vs russell jr because its not.

$60 aint nothing. Im just not paying for bs fights. When you do that. You continue to get bs fights.

Im buying fury vs wilder, and crawford vs porter because those are top fighters taking risks. They deserve ppv support.

Tank vs a cherry? No thanks.
