Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis Believes Boxers Use Mental Health As An 'Excuse' To 'Get Out Of Stuff'

There is something WAY more effective than spanking a kid. Give them the choice of either being spanked or having their cell phone taken away for a day and in every case they would rather be spanked. When I was a kid, I didn't give a sht if I was spanked but threaten to take my TV away for the weekend and I would do anything to avoid that. But these mental health crises are made up of too many people crying wolf and not taking responsibility. We'd be owned by a third-world country by now if our army had stopped fighting and claimed mental health crisis.

If the kid is old enough to have a cell phone, then they are too old to be spanked. In other words, if you still have to spank your kid to discipline them, they don't get a cell phone

people have always had mental health problems and always will, ups and downs for a lot of people but now these problems can get u out of things but before they could not, just get on with it etc would be the answer

ive seen people having these issues and they literally cant sleep for days or weeks on end and doing a simple task is almost difficult, i used to think everyone must be exaggerating until i saw people i know well fall victim to it & these people have done far tougher things in life than i have which i thought was weird in a way & when they get back on the horse after a while they go right back to normal

I agree with Tank Davis. We all have to deal with issues that can affect our mental health in life.

America has found a niche in caring about the mental health of its rich and fabulous while ignoring the mental health of its general population.

Tank Davis is saying that Ryan Garcia a privileged little b**tch. Tank is going to show him what kind of man is bred from a lifestyle that doesn't have privileges.

Ryan Garcia is gonna have a whole lotta feelings after this fight.

One that flees the scene of an accident,injuring a pregnant women...or the type of "man" that ragdolls his women at basketball games??Seems like Tank himself could use the same professional mental help he dismisses?

You ever been to Victorville? Theres absolutely nothing "privileged" about growing up there.

Have you ever been to Donetsk?

Have you ever been to Donetsk?

Of course not but I'm pretty certain that's not where Tank grew up either.

Everyone knows Garcia lied about his “mental health” break…. Dude was in the club and on social media the entire time when social media is the most toxic thing in society for your mental health

100% spot on. Mental health is real on everybody but clearly not an issue in cryan's case for same reasons you've stated, its seems tank is tougher mentally than garcia is,maybe his upbringing in baltimore hoods has to do with it but yes, mental health affects all people ,difference is how each person handles or deals with it.

ryan garcia has fought like 3 times since , its a non issue

we are all waiting for you to get done with this hector garcia fight ,

when will someone ask him if he knows he will even be a free man in april??

I know who Tank is referring to, but mental health is a very real thing, no matter what career one is in.

With all that's gone on and the struggles of many people today, we must encourage one another, now more than ever.

What else are you going to do with mental issues? Besides throw guys out of the ring.

You'd be surprised how young they are. I've seen 8 year olds with cell phones. The central point is, whether cell phones or TV sets, no need to spank a kid, just threaten to take his/her entertainment away and watch him shape up fast.
