    Comments Thread For: Mayweather: More Power To Davis For Being His Own Boss - I Want To See Fighters Grow

    Gervonta Davis recently confirmed he's no longer contractually tied to Mayweather Promotions. Over the course of the calendar year, Davis dropped many hints alluding to the notion that he'd no longer be working with his mentor moving forward.

    Salute to Floyd! Glad he didn't knock the man's hustle! Now go find another one! I wish Floyd had "Boots" Ennis! "Boots" would be a household name by now!

      It was best for tanks career to severe ties with tmt promotions only one he couldn't leave was Haymon due to the televised network exposure.

      I honestly believe that deep down in his heart Mayweather didn't want tank to be great or surpass his accomplishments so he was going to lead him through the rocky roads and hope he fell along the way ️

          Fingers crossed we see Tank in the big fights now. He was definitely being held back, but has the talent and fans to be an actual star.

            The more successful Tank got, the more money in Mayweather’s pockets and the better for Mayweather promotions. Hence why we saw Tank vs fan friendly fighters who Tank could beat and would raise his profile.

            Mayweather gains absolutely nothing by putting Tank down. Not making the Lomachenko fight years ago when Loma was calling out Tank was basically Floyd protecting Tank’s 0 by avoiding putting him in vs a prime Lomachenko.

            Mayweather absolutely did way more good than harm for Tank and raised his profile way up high. It is now up to Tank to do something with that fame Mayweather set him up with.

              Very few fighters are household names without a belt 1st, Boots is good but we don't know if he'll be great, yet!

                So they need to leave Mayweather and clown Ellerbe if they want to grow?

                btw, did he say it through gritted teeth?

                  I take my hat off to Floyd for learning how to BS the fans and fighters, knowing dammm well him and Leonard was screwing that boy with what he was bringing to the table and was a financial disaster for him in the long run.

                    Floyd wants these young brothers to do good and make money. BUT he doesnt want them to be better than him.
