Gervonta Davis Fallout With Floyd is Perfect Example Why Signing To Mayweather is Bad

[AddiX]

This aint giving him a pay raise to get him to turn his back on his community and culture. Its a chance of a lifetime to become a pro athlete and he is being endorsed by the best fighter of this generation, and you would advise him to stay in the hood? LMFAO

Also, staying in the hood has worked out real good for guys like Bojado and Frankie Gomez right? FOH with this nonsense.

I was just about to bring up Gomez.

People don't realze how bad it is to be a very good fighter who still lives that hood life.

Of the young fighters I knew who had a chance to do something as a pro boxer, only the ones tht left the hood are having any success.

The other ones all have kids, one of the best young fighters I knew got a murder charge right down the street from the gym he trained, some of them just start hanging with corner dudes.

People need to stop with the whole, "don't forget where you came from" bs when it comes to the hood. Nothing but negative **** there

He made it this far on his own, not everyone are idiots. Tons of fighters came up out the "hood" lmfao idiots are gonna be idiots no matter where they are at look at Broner he trains out of the USMC boxing facitity in Colorado lmfao.

The hood lmfao yall sound ****** AF,

I need more examples of this. I'm beginning to think people just regurgitate **** they feel is right in their gut but has little to no evidence to back it up. Like those who say climate change is a hoax because it's cold outside. You think this this is happening but is it really.

[Holystroke3]

He made it this far on his own,

Davis made it to this title fight on his own? He's nowhere near a title shot without Floyd

[Vasyl’s dad]

He can be the first that is the point! Mayweather is just now starting to take his promotion serious and he is trying to build a star from the ground up. Davis can be that guy but if he doesn't want to listen then he is missing a golden opportunity for what? To stay close to home to hang with friends?

That is like telling your job, "No I Don't Want A Promotion And More Money I Want To Stay With My Friends"

So the whole "move with tmt and be a superstar" has a success rate of 0. Perhaps the kid isn't so dumb after all.

Sadly, you guys would find a way to defend floyd if he was robbing his fighters like promoters of the past.

[Vasyl’s dad]

We don't know what was agreed to and what was not. He doesn't seem eager to leave TMT so they are probably working something out.

So you guys are mad for what?

[Vasyl’s dad]

Well, if TMT fighters would quit ****in up maybe I could give you some. But each and every one of them has acted a fool.

Now maybe that's got something to do with Floyd somehow, but we haven't seen a fighter just do what they're told and stay out of the "hood" yet.

So again, the "move in with tmt" is not guaranteed success. Interesting. Who would have thought that Las Vegas would be a problem for young men in their early 20s who watch their promoter make it rain at the local clubs?

[killakali]

Cuz thats where Mayweather promoted boxers tend to go as mentioned above. They've built their own community with like minded individuals in Vegas. That said I don't even know that we have full info to know if there isn't leeway between Baltimore & Vegas. Who knows maybe DC or other places ARE on the table.

I mean for the most part this seems like a story that should've never made its way to us if not for social media drama so its possible there was a Mickey Bey or J'Leon Love similar situation at some point, but they eventually agreed to come to Vegas thus there was no story to talk about like there is here.

but what does that tell you? No other promoter requires their fighters to fight out of their gym. A bit strange isn't? Seems like control issues

We don't know if it WOULD be guaranteed success because he hasn't found a fighter that does as they're told.

Many of the fighters who are on the up feel so confident in their own thing they never get the shot. And like Broner, their careers slowly dwindle into nothing.

The reality is, Tank isn't that great of a fighter. He's got power, but that's about it. Know another fighter who's like that? Deontay Wilder. Another guy who trains in the backwoods.

All I can tell you is, if it were me, I'd rather make multi-millions in Vegas (and I HATE Vegas) than to be training out in Hangem, Montana or something.

but what does that tell you? No other promoter requires their fighters to fight out of their gym.

Pretty sure Don King had such requirements.

[HanzGruber]

He made it this far on his own, not everyone are idiots. Tons of fighters came up out the "hood" lmfao idiots are gonna be idiots no matter where they are at look at Broner he trains out of the USMC boxing facitity in Colorado lmfao.

The hood lmfao yall sound ****** AF,

And when broner gets in trouble it's usually in his home town lol. It just makes sense to be training away from the ****** which is one of the worst cities in America and get the best sparring available and whatever else he can for training. Omar figeroua stopped training with Joel Diaz cause he wanted to be home with family and he started looking like shlt ever since.

Reality is tank doesn't sniff a title shot at this stage of his career without Floyd.
