Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis Hits Back at Talk That Mayweather Promotions Is Protecting Him

[Bronx2245]

Loma lost to a multi time champion in his second fight, he also lost to Lopez a very talented undefeated boxer. Cruz lost to a club fighter and drew with another club fighter. Nowhere near remotely the same. Also notice you could not dispute that Mayweather Promotions certainly are protecting Porky.

Loma lost to the Salido who lost to Cristobal Cruz in '08, Gamboa '10, and Mikey in '13! He was 34 years old! Cruz is IBF #2, Loma is IBF # 6! How can Cruz NOT be a "Top Tier" fighter?

u comparing b-level cruz in any way is ridiculously outlandish.

See Post # 62!

Cruz is a club level fighter. He is a fun fighter to watch vs other club level fighters. Granted, he's no worse than Rolly.

I get it. Tank's fans will pay no matter what

How many world titles have the 2 nobodies that beat Cruz ever won? Absolutely zero they never even came to close to even sniffing one. Salido was a multi time champ, beat some very good fighters along the way. Porky or Cruz would have gone nowhere near Salido in their 2nd pro fight. Losing to Gamboa at the time Salido did was nothing to be ashamed of, he didn't get to fight the shot version Porky did. Mikey also went on to be a 4 division champion again nothing to be ashamed of there. Cruz however lost to a guy who is15-8 and drew with a guy with more losses than wins. At least you aren't defending the fact that Porky is being protected and this garbage fight is no different.

"They are calling my name. Okay. Catch them at the right time. Catch them while they're sleeping. That's what I am doing. Just pop right up on them. Say, 'here it is. You've been calling my name."

Got a way with words!

That is sadly translated to: Catch them when they are washed, already knocked out, coming off an injury or something else.

I understand they are doing everything they can to protect the "0" because this way they can keep milking the boxing community. Tank sells, so book him in fights with safer opponents and the money will keep coming in. Book him in a fight with a huge risk, you may come out victorious and get paid big time, but if you lose, the "0" is gone

bruh...

he's psychologically re-tarded

This idiot is the alt of the banned poster Rick Taylor.

[THC]

By justifying his resume with "nobody else is fighting the best", Davis admits he's not been fighting the best. Whether that's due to his promoter or himself or both, I don't care. He's simply not giving boxing fans the fights we want. He'll never be a true superstar if he follows the current path.

aww tank is cosplaying as a boxer how cute

[True-Boxing-Fan]

That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve heard. So Tank is refusing to step up opponents because other fighters are not doing it either.

Fact is Mayweather Promotions is protecting you and you blatantly are refusing to step up your competition.

I understand though as Teo and especially Taylor run right through you, and Haney beats you. Out of the top guys at 135 to 140 the only one Id favor you over is Ryan Garcia. But then again if he can get to some consistency fighting and getting things back on track. That window of opportunity of you being able to beat him will shrink real fast.

People are always shhting on the ABC organizations and there rankings, but you will go by their rankings when it suits your debate.

Fact is Cruz is not a good fighter for someone of Tanks supposed stature. He was a quick fill in and to have this fight still as a PPV is utterly ridiculous. It will get GGG 95k numbers.
