Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis, Floyd Mayweather at Odds, Sosa Bout in Doubt?

[MrRolltide91]

Like Arum shelved Garcia over a contract dispute or Walters is on the shelf for not taking the Lomachenko fight? Like Dana White put guys on the shelf for not taking fights? He's telling the kid to get away from that environment and come get focused. Why should he put him in there with Sosa if he's not focused and ready for the fight? That would be malfeasance if a promoter put a kid in the biggest fight of his life when he's not properly trained and focused. Can you imagine GGG, Kovalev, or Lomachenko telling K2, Main Events, and Top Rank they don't want to come to America?

And like I said, I can only judge by what I see him post on social media. Just like it probably wasn't a good idea for him to just do a live broadcast and once again threaten to beat Steve Kim.

What is saying on the live broadcast?

To get the job you want you gotta relocate sometimes. Floyd is investigating millions in this kid and he wants to make sure his investment is under his supervision. I don't blame him.

This kid got his boys in Bmore gassing him up and thinking he knows what's best for him.

I like a guy staying loyal to where he's from, Spence trains out of Dallas and will be drawing over 10k when he starts fighting here more.

Come on Floyd, let the kid be for now. Maybe he thinks this is best for Tank, but at this stage in his career, moving that far away from omhe might be bad for him. I understand the distractions and others wanting handouts, but Floyd should know what it's like to have a promoter dictate your moves. You got a young talent in your stable. Work for him

The question should be why Sosa even wasting his time on this? He getting a big check??

Spence is not from the hood though.
Spense is more Shawn Porter and Davis is more Adrien Broner.

Spence is 7 years older than Davis. Much more mature.

How are you gonna spend millions on a 19 year old kid, give him title shots and have no clue what he's doing back in Baltimore when he's not in camp?

Floyd left grand rapids, focused himself and excelled. He's been in this position before and wants to invest in this kid to be great too. But greatness requires sacrifice.

Damn he's 19, probably still a mamas boy. Which is not a bad thing. Damien Lillard moved his mom out to Portland with him and she lives with him (still.)

Texas ain't Baltimore. Watch The Wire. Everything you see in that show is EXACTLY how Bmore is. In fact, I'd say it's worse. Only big city I'd say is worse right now in the US is Chicago.

I don't think anyone is as hood as Broner.

I do think boxing is too New York and Las Vegas focused. It's really hurt the sport in my eyes.
