Comments Thread For: Hearn Says Gervonta Davis vs. Conor Benn Would Have To Land at 147

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Gervonta Davis needs to get back in the mix. Normally, that isn't a huge issue. The lightweight division usually affords him with a ton of fighters to choose from. But, his options, at least for now, are limited.

I find it wild that a guy who isn't even a proven "star" in the UK let alone America is trying to make a somewhat proven commodity acquiesce to his demands when they're going to fight in America...

Let's talk some more about this fight that's not going to happen

[Lefty0616]

I get it. Folks are tired of Davis's catch weight demands, and rightfully so. This fight, however, will not happen. I don't think Davis will jump straight to 147. He's had problems dealing with 140 lb opponents.

As if Benn would have any leverage in these supposed negotiations

Slow Eddie just upped the ante to 15 million
If that means anything
Not bad to fight Benn , which shouldn’t be very difficult for Tank

Didn’t tank make north of $50m with percentages against Garcia?

Yup
But where else will he get this kind of money ?
Ryan is booked already
He gonna fill up Haney’s pockets for now

[JakeTheBoxer]

Not gonna happen. Tank the bum has a problem fighting top 135 guys, he won't fight a full sized welterweight.

This ******ity will fall to pieces the first time these two guys stand next to each other , Davis is tiny. Hearn is trying to get one over on a name for Benn at any cost, knowing full well he can't cut it with any decent fighter at his own weight.
