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

[BoxingIsGreat]

If they ordered it, and Tank vacated, that has to be considered a DUCK! Same goes for Teofimo Lopez! He can't say he's fighting anyone @ 135, if he were to vacate!

I don't think it is. Can't force people to fight for these garbage belts. Plus, Davis will never be a mando or take the 25% or so mando cut to fight that clown. I wouldn't mind seeing it for no belts, tho.

That argument only works if instead of fighting for one of these "garbage belts", the fighter in question is taking on better opponents. Tank isn't doing that.

The rest at lightweight should fight each other without him. He ain't holding any fights back. Why aren't they fighting each other?

Interesting point. That is exactly what they say about charlo and Andrade and exactly what I say about ggg regarding Canelo.

Why won’t Davis fight Haney? It’s not like Haney isn’t trying to fight other lightweights. Davis is no better than the rest. Instead we get Cruz

Not much of a defense as pretty much everyone is saying the same thing about 135 being a loaded division where few good fights are being made.

He's better than the rest. That's why people think he can pick any fight he wants (which is true). That's why everyone and their dad are blaming him for not making the fights. The people you want him to fight are all with Arum and Arum doesn't do business with Floyd. Floyd has the first say in Gervonta's career. What Floyd says goes, even without Haymon's advice on who Davis fights. Arum and Floyd are mortal enemies. Politics, egos, and vendettas. Arum also doesn't do business with GBP and Hearn.

Floyd doesn't want the Haney fight for Haney's sake. Haney's dad agrees. Maybe later. It's like Canelo refusing to fight Mexicans when there are others available.

Floyd doesn't want the fight and Haney's dad agrees?. Are we talking about men here or children??

In the mean time we get a steady diet of crappy fights, mostly I think because folks keep finding ways to excuse this nonsense. Stop supporting this trash.

Climbing down from my soapbox now. Carry on...

Floyd is protecting Haney. He doesn't want him derailed too early. Haney's dad doesn't want the Davis fight now either. They can both get other fights. Maybe later on. Clear?

You get what you call 'crap' because of the promoters. What noncrap fights are the other lightweights serving you?

Cruz is a solid fighter.

I think the WBA would make it 55/45, if they want the fight to happen!
