According to his ardent supporters he doesn't have to as long as he's making a killing in the box office showcasing fights. Go look at their posts. Go ahead.
Gervonta 'Tank' Davis REALLY needs to step it up

Right.
I can care less how many tickets Tank sells and how big of a star he is.
I look at legacy as a Boxing fan, I can care less how popular any fighter is.Comment

Yeah definitely man.
Just watch, Oscar de la Hoya won't let Ryan fight him. Oscar knows Ryan isn't ready. They just run their mouths off for attention and marketing.
For real, at this point in both fighters' careers, Tank hurts Ryan and it is another predictable fight. Don't get me wrong, Ryan can fight, but Tank is too skilled and powerful.
I wholeheartedly agree! Davis would expose Ryan Garcia at this point of their careers. Currently, I believe Loma and Tank are perhaps the best two fighters in the 135 lbs division.Comment

I hate to say it because I am a big admirer of Floyd & how he made business moves but they will never put DAVIS in with any threat.
They just did over 18,000 fighting TRASH yesterday, with Davis making over a million dollar purse...in their eyes, there is no need to fight any elites at 135.
Ellerbe runs Mayweather Promotion & in his eyes, the casuals are Davis fanbase...he doesn't give a F about the diehards because we will watch regardless. The casuals don't know anything about ABC belts & P4P lists so Ellerbe will continue to put Davis in there with mushrooms because they can do 18,000 regardless.
IT IS WHAT IT IS!Comment

Hey I feel you.
But the problem here is Tank actually needs to fight these top to show he is the best. I hope he does soon and he has to start with winner of Haney Kambo

Wow, that pretty much sums up the reason to why Tank is led how he is.I hate to say it because I am a big admirer of Floyd & how he made business moves but they will never put DAVIS in with any threat.

Yeah, and Tank is too comfortable with easy checks. I really don't think Tank is looking for legacy.Comment

Good point.
I think Tank can do well at 147 but not exceptional really. 147 has highly skilled competition and champs, Tank wouldn't survive that.
I actually think the top champs walk over Tank at 147Comment

man Jhonny like his explosive power…Thought he looked good against a special ed student who’s been boxing a couple years. I like Tank, but I hate his career and his fans. If your guy is the killer you claim, you want him to fight the top guys
Beterbiev and Inoue have been a few of my favorite active fighters for years, and I always want them to fight the best guys.
I think he’s susceptible
amazing fighter!! to a left hook..
