Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis Blasts Out Rolando Romero With Big Left in Sixth

[low blows]

It's time for Davis to fight someone. Who buys these PPVS? You would have to be a complete loser to buy this tonight. It wasw even worth tuning into if it was free.

I don't even factor Davis into the big dawgs equations because he hasn't fought one live body in his whole career.

I don't get what they are trying to do with him. He's fought nobody after nobody and still nobody knows or cares who he is.

every time I hear this cat is fighting I know it's against some nobody. There is a reason for that. He's going to be outed once he fights anyone worth a ****.

I have no problems or hate vs Tank but he's never had a fight even worth tuning in to.

My thoughts exactly, while an exciting fighter he is in no way a PPV star. PBC is taking advantage of the lax WBA title situation with bogus regular championships. So far the majority of his world belts have been the WBA regular title. If this PPV was what it should have been the number 1 contender vs a paper number X what would the buy rate be for this disguised regular Showtime card?

No... Ill eat crow but Tank said it best: That BS was to promote a fight and it worked. As boxing fans we have to start encouraging fighters to promote their fights... make it so the promoters are not necessary! This fight was very well promoted, and it was fun while it lasted.

I respect your honesty, but now Romero wants a rematch, Tank isn't going to run that back, because he has bigger fish to fry in his future fights.

Yep he reminds me of a smaller deontay wilder just being protected fighting stiffs.

No much more skilled but then again if he had the cave man skills of Wilder he doesn't get beyond b side of old ESPN level main even status.

Then his dope self brings up guns. This dude is a tard.

Americans love guns. Nothing tard about his comparison.

I’m gonna say something the boxing media won’t admit and many fans won’t like but it’s true.

if Boxing made the best fights, right now 135, 147, 154, 160, and 168 could be unified by black Americans. The hardest of those divisions is Jamall or Andrade beating David because he’s a big 168er.

Tank 135

Ennis 147

Spence 154 moved up

Jamell 160 moved up

Charlo at 168 moved up.

The only way I can explain so many white Americans rooting for Europeans instead of Americans is bias. It’s in the boxing media and it’s clear

will never know - will never risk that 0 and fight any fighter on his level. Will continue to fight any B-level pbc fighter with a Hispanic last name that only hard core fans have even heard of….Barrios, Cruz, Romero, or old past it names - Lsc, Gamboa. All mismatches with Davis the clear heavy favorite. Ellerbe will continue to use the “Davis A side and huge ppv attraction” as the excuse to avoid the top fighters who have called Davis out - Loma, Haney, Lopez, Garcia.

It's laughable Tank is the A side against the future undisputed lightweight champion or even when Loma had 3 belts. If this WBA regular champion charade goes on much longer then it's clearly a duck of tougher opposition.

Blacks rooting for blacks= Perfectly fine

Latinos rooting for latinos= Perfectly fine

Asians rooting for asian= Perfectly fine

Whites rooting for whites= Bias!!!!!

Just because it's the only way "you" can explain it doesnt mean its the right explanation. When you set it up a certain way in your head, you lead yourself to your desired conclusion.

It's marketing. Why have one star when you can profit from a bunch of them? How many rings do u have? Or pairs of kicks? Or suits? Or whatever? The racism excuse is so played out and tired; have some sense and dignity.

Reading Southpawology & Progrssive-jedi

I think that because USA has owned so many of the titles over the years you may think differently but we support the British guy.

I'm from the UK & we wouldn't differentiate. Like, I've always supported Froch, Hatton, DeGale, Honeyghan, Andries, Lewis, Khan & Hamed. I think the vast majority of British fight fans wouldn't think about it. I would be shocked if e.g someone white said they wouldn't support Anthony Yarde or if someone black said they wouldn't support Callum Johnson just because of ethnicity. If you're British you should normally support the British guy.

I must admit, I am finding it hard to root for Conor Benn or Chris Eubank Jr but that is absolutely nothing to do with their ethnicity. It is to do with Conor Benn ducking Avanesyan & my man Ekow Essuman &, TBH, anyone with a pulse & Eubank's embarrassing, undignified pursuit of Kell Brook & both men's failure to go after top opposition.

Nor should he. Romero had his chance... Rolly has to mature a bit... he also has to watch and see how fighters in the past got it done in his same situation.
