Comments Thread For: Ellerbe: Gervonta Davis is The Picture of 135; We Have All The Leverage

Showtime and Davis are doing great business. enjoy the show this weekend sour boy

If that's the case why do they hide the PPV buys? Because he isn't selling, especially fighting guys like Romero. That's why Floyd is content with letting the kid walk afterwards. Showtime needed to turn to Jake Paul to make up for all the flops.

Whoever is champion will not be a B side to Tank. They're lining themselves up to price themselves out of fighting any of them. What they are really banking on, is that Haney wins undisputed. He then relinquishes titles and moves to 140. Tank fights a no-hoper for one or more of the vacated titles. Continues ducking Loma until he is closer to age 40, refuses title shots or again prices himself out, against Teo, Kambosos, and Shakur if he moves to 135. Ryan Garcia is a KO waiting to happen, he's overrated and may or may not be in contention by the time all of this unfolds.

Let's talk about it on Sunday morning, until then lets wait.

Tank will see his career advance now that he will be away from Mayweather Promotions.

Nah, Ellerbe got B level draw with an A+ level talent. Tank should be a lot bigger than he is, poor or soft matchmaking has hurt a lot.

[Get em up]

Simply put - Davis will NEVER risk that 0 and will NEVER dare to be great and have any kind of legacy. Davis and his team are content fighting B-level competition in ppv mismatches and will obviously continue to do so with Ellerbes BS built in excuse. Davis with his mad skills and power should be top 3 p4p a long time ago. Wasting away his prime.

I'm a serious fan of Tank but your right. He is loaded with talent and has serious power that probably even carries to 140 but he is wasting his prime to get rich and doesnt care about legacy. For Tank its about the almighty dollar and he doesnt care about ever seeing Canastota, NY when his career is over

When is Mr A side gonna make a big fight is the real question

Anytime Tank fights its a big one. He makes more money than the clowns with the belts. enjoy the show Saturday night

[T.M.T]

Yeah with no title to his name and a garbage resume. Let's not forget Showtime hides his PPV buys too. Some real leverage there.

The one true thing Ellerbe said is that Davis IS highest paid of all the 135 pounders and he puts more buts in the seats. You can argue about the numbers are the revenue he generates. None of the other 135'ers come close. I think belts do matter though for the bargaining table.

[Hustle]

Not at all. Sounds like he's telling every top fighter at 135 that Tank Davis is the A-side
