Comments Thread For: Never Leaving Las Vegas? Gervonta Davis Finds Training Focus In Sin City

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

What made fighters like Floyd so successful was the work ethic. You have to be a gym rat at all times in pro boxing. Its extremely hard on the body to constantly be gaining weight then losing it rapidly. Every pro fighter should stay in fighting shape year round IMO. Tank could do big things with more discipline and a better work ethic.

Tank has fair natural ability but he's not super great

He has to start fighting people his size with talent to make me really believe. It's just crazy how anyone can assume he is something special

It blows my mind that in a sport where making weight is crucial, that boxers don't immediately get a nutritionist the second they start making enough money.

Floyd has told him for years to move his camp to Las Vegas. Finally he realized he can’t half ass this camp.

You can't have someone as undisciplined as Gervonta in a place called Sin City

Remember its their money.

If I had been very poor & someone said 'pay a man like $500 a week & he'll tell you what to eat' I'd be kinda doubtful!

Lennox Lewis wouldn't even pay for commercial caterers to provide food for the spar camp. He said 'my mom can do that'! So Violet Lewis made rice & peas for everyone.

Makes no difference. Lennox Lewis didn’t move there. Pete Whitaker didn’t move there. Rambo Davis has to decide if he’s gonna train right. Doesn’t matter where Rambo goes for camp.

Is this true about Lennox ? If so that is awesome. I would love to see an interview where someone talks about that first hand.

Having said that, Lennox is a heavyweight so making weight is a bit less crucial. Still though, if his mama made food for all the sparring folks that’s crazy. Lol.

But dawg Lennox Lewis was a heavyweight. He didnt have to make weight.
