Tim Bradley Buries Gervonta Davis Says Davis Fights Uber Drivers

[ShoulderRoll]

it wasn't more impressive. he took a lot of heavy punches from pedraza who fought like a dumbass. loma just schooled pedraza and lost 1-2 rounds while scoring more knockdowns. also thats like lomas 7th best win so its pretty funny that is davis' only claim to fame but like i said before when you have nothing you try to make something out of it

I mean, Gervonta Davis got Pedraza out of there in 6. Losing only one round on all three judges' scorecards.

Lomachenko had to go the distance. And lost 3 rounds on two separate judges' scorecards.

By definition that was more impressive by Davis.

Tevin Farmer had a standing offer for $2m to fight Davis on Showtime, with his DAZN deal up (DiBella has a great relationship with Ellerbe/Haymon that if the money was low, that could've been rather easily turned into a piece of the event.

On top of that, Berchelt, Herring, and regular WBA champion Cancio, couldn't sell out the 8k-seat Dignity Health, while Davis is working with 20k-seat basketball arenas, and Top Rank isn't sending anyone anywhere.

Davis will have this December fight in front of a pretty well packed arena, hopefully win, and will likely line up a blockbuster clash with Leo Santa Cruz by Spring 2020 (potentially on PPV), and the build will continue.

Tank is well on his way to becoming a Superstar which is very RARE at that weight to become a Headliner and a Big Draw. Of course the big fights are coming but people will use it against him to hate him and bash him until those fights start happening

does it lead to anything? a shot at the regular title? or it's just a glorified trophy?

Pretty much. Basically confirms a high rating by the WBA.

He always sounds like a dumb ***. Would have been more impressive if he just kept his mouth shut.

He is training as we speak... Floyd found a guy who is serious about giving Gervanta a good solid challenge and get him in a place he belongs in his career. Frankly I don't see a problem Gervantes is just taking it slow, preserving that ole goose egg. And this guy he is fighting means business!!

Bradley ended his career with a great pedrigree but at similar points in their careers the best fighter he had faced was Junior Witter. If Tank was on Espn Bradley would be talking about how much trouble Gamboa gave Crawford and how he's still dangerous and shouldn't be taken lightly.

EXACTLY correct.

[Citizen Koba]

That's not true; regular champion is supposed to get a shot at the super champion every 16 months or so.

Basically the reason why Golovkin had to fight Jacobs finally.

Man, if GGG didn't want to fight Jacobs all he needed to have done was sit on his mandatory split.

Rules are different for regular champion versus Super champion

[Curt Henning]

Really strange rebuttal....okay?


EDIT - Couldn't help but notice that in those 20 fights when they were Tanks age, they weren't calling themselves "multiple time world champions" so maybe it has something to do with that? Claiming to be a 2x world champion while still claiming youre too young to face a challenge?


No, it's Floyd.

didnt we both agree awhile back that winning a "world title" today is pretty easy and kind of cheap??...i mean it kind of is...so alot of guys can say that but it means little in the grand scheme....we know who the "champs" are...

Yeah, we did agree on that, and we still do agree.

But I still believe that once you have one of those world titles, you shouldn't be holding it hostage while you continue to get better. Should be moving up the ranks and getting better.
