Terenka Crawford revealed his reluctance to Gervont “Tank” by Davis and said Shakur Stevenson defeated him. Crawford says that he chooses the WBC Lightweight Stevenson master to defeat Tank because he would not be able to “land his shots on him.” His defense is too good.

Terenka does not say how Stevenson can overcome Tank if his goal is to lack commitment and avoid hit. That’s all he does, and fans hate this archaic return of the Hit-And-Get-Hit style at the beginning of 2000. If Crawford’s efforts regarding the trash of the tank in the fight with a friend Shakur, he would make him really solid, but it will not work. Gervont was not born yesterday. He knows what Crawford is trying to do.

Shakur (22-0, 10 KO) begged for the fight against the Supergwiade Tank Davis (30-0, 28 KO), because he moved to 135 in 2024, but he did nothing to sell as a dignified division call with him. Shakur has performed badly in the last two fights with Art Harutyunyan and Edwin de Los Santos. He had fans who leave Harutynaan and win him out of existence in a duel de los Santos.

Crawford’s personal reluctance to Davis

“He wouldn’t even think about reaching 154,” said Crawford Cigar conversation About Gervont Davis. “Yes, if he could choose an opponent,” Terenki said, asked if Tank would take place until 147.

“If Tank could choose his opponent, he would do it, but he would never come from 135 to 154,” said Crawford, not realizing that Tank had already moved two divisions. I really don’t like this guy because I don’t like him. I don’t like anything about it.

“I feel that he is one of those arrogant petite contributions that he uses what he had to protect him. He has many bodyguards around him and knows that he is in the center of attention. In some situations he would not be kept in this way, ‘said Crawford.

Tank Davis has already moved two weight classes at the age of 126 from the beginning of his career. Why would he go up the next three divisions to fight for 154? What is it all about? Yes, Crawford is a former world champion with four divisions, but he did not fight the great opposition in these weight classes. He moves to 168 to one -time to get the day of payment against Canelo Alvarez. It’s not like Crawford will stay there later.

He simply goes to Paydation, survives and will probably retire or return from where he came at the age of 154. If he returns to Junior Medium weight, it will only be the cherry of Sebastian Fund, a sensitive master. He does not intend to fight a good one, such as Bakrahm Murtazaliev, Vergil Ortiz Jr, Serhii Bohachuk or Israil Madrimov rematch.

“He is a damn good warrior, I respect him as a warrior. He has skills, has power and has great boxing ability. But his basic personality and his paths, no. I got Shakur, “said Crawford, asked who would win the fight between Tank Davis and Shakur Stevenson.

“As I said, I respect the tank. In boxing, he is one of those. We will get his personality and personal belongings out of this. He is definitely talented in boxing and he definitely has it. Definitely respected in boxing, but Shakur is another warrior. “

Shakur: lifeless truth

Crawford is right. Shakur is a “other warrior”, but he is poisonous for fans and is not good for sport when it comes to his height. It is no coincidence that Shakura’s fight with Floyd Schofield was buried on Saturday’s card on February 22 in Riyadh. It was placed here for obvious reasons.

“Shakur is different. People can say it’s lifeless. People can say that they can’t hit, but they said the same thing about Floydie because they are defensive fighters, “said Crawford. “Tank will not be able to hit Shakur, as if he hit everyone else. He knows it and that’s why he is lifeless. He is like that, he is like that. “

I hate to break this Crawford, but Tank would be able to hit Shakur and hurt him. It is not inviolable. Terenka could give his opinion that Shakur is not able to observe, as he defeated the smaller opposition in recent years, but he is definitely hit, unless he escapes. He should have lost the fight against Edwin de Los Santos because he did not throw blows.

“He tries to reduce everything that Shakur did, so he couldn’t be sold,” said Crawford. “But he can’t do it because Shakur is a world champion in three importance. How many real titles did the tank have? How two? Real titles. [Jose] Pedraza, Pedraza exhausted. Let’s do it on an equal pitch. Give this man time for training. “

Gervont says it as if it was lifeless because that’s the truth. Fighters who have this style are so afraid of hitting that they will not touch. They must be praised from sport.

“The tank is great for what he does, and I respect the tank in the ring and its skills, its power and attributes. He is shrewd. He may weigh his **. I’m not saying that I would choose Shakur only because of our differences. I tell you as a warrior. I would choose Shakur because not a Think Tank would be able to land shots on him, as if he did everything else. Shakura’s defense is too tight.

Emiliano Vargas targets fight with George Kambosos after Bryce Mills fight

“Because before this fight, I would love to fight George Kambosos,” Vargas told Sean Zittel when discussing potential opponents after the Mills fight.

Emiliano stressed that his focus remains on Mills, but made it clear that he believes he is getting closer to the title.

“I’m going to show the world that I’m ready to fight for the title,” Vargas said.

The son of former two-time world champion Fernando Vargas believes that a good performance on the Jaron Ennis-Xander Zayas card can give him significant progress in the competition.

“After this fight, I would love to have a title eliminator or former world champion,” Emiliano said. “I’m second in the WBO rankings, 12th in the WBC. I’m there and I’m knocking on that door.”

Vargas comes into the fight off a win over Agustin Quintana in February. While this performance sparked debate among some fans, Emiliano considers the innings he saved as valuable experience in continuing to develop his game.

The undefeated fighter claims that during the last camps he expanded his training team and worked intensively on movement, angles and fighting under pressure. He also recently spent time in David Benavidez’s camp, drawing inspiration from the former world champion’s work ethic and aggressive style.

If Emiliano beats Mills on Saturday, attention will quickly turn to who will be next. From his comments, Kambosos is at the top of the list.

Kambosos, a former unified lightweight champion, would represent the most recognizable name of Vargas’ career and potentially take him one step closer to the title eliminator he thinks he wants next.

Gervonta Davis is currently fighting to return to one of the biggest fights in American boxing: “His team reached out”

Gervonta Davis now pursuing one of the biggest fights in US boxing for comeback: “His team reached out”

The future of Gervonta Davis remains one of the most talked about topics in boxing.

The Baltimore star hasn’t fought since a controversial draw with Lamont Roach Jr., which many observers felt should have gone against him after Roach was denied a knockout. Since then, a combination of legal issues and uncertainty surrounding his return plans have left fans confused about what will happen next.

Recently, however, there have been signs that “Tank” Davis is getting closer to a return. The WBA has ordered him to defend his lightweight world title against mandatory challenger Floyd Schofield, with Schofield’s camp previously suggesting progress was being made behind the scenes.

While Schofield was considered the favorite, another familiar option could now emerge.

On Sunday evening on social media, three-division world champion Devin Haney revealed that he was contacted directly by the “Tanka” team.

“I think Gervonta has gained some balls…his team has reached! We can just fight!”

The timing is especially engaging given Haney’s current position. The WBO welterweight champion has recently been linked to both Shakur Stevenson and mandatory challenger Keyshawn Davis, while “Tank’s” immediate future appeared to be tied to Schofield.

A fight between any two fighters: Davis, Haney and Stevenson would be one of the biggest fights in boxing today. However, there are two main obstacles standing in the way of a Davis-Haney fight.

The first is Haney’s mandatory duty. WBO president Gustavo Olivieri recently confirmed that the champion has been ordered to face Keyshawn Davis next and will not receive an exception to fight another fight.

The second, and perhaps bigger, issue for Davis is weight. “Tank” is the most comfortable lightweight campaign, while Haney now looks like a legitimate welterweight, even though he has only had one fight in the division so far. He seemed open to offering a catchweight of 144 pounds to fight Stevenson, but even that would be a significant disadvantage to Davis.

Devin Haney says Gervonta Davis’ team has made contact and declines to discuss the hydration clause

Image: Devin Haney Says Gervonta Davis' Team Reached Out, Rejects Rehydration Clause Talk

Devin Haney says that after years of calls for a fight, a fight with Gervonta Davis may finally be closer to reality.

Haney revealed on social media that Tank Davis’ team recently reached out about a potential fight. When the fan responded by warning him not to agree to any hydration restrictions, Haney quickly dismissed the idea.


“Never,” Haney repeated X about not wanting to agree to the rehydration clause.

The response came shortly after Haney suggested that discussions had begun between the two sides.

“I think Gervonta has gained some balls. His team has reached! We can just fight! 😅– Haney wrote.

The fight between Haney and Gervonta is one of the longest unanswered questions in boxing. Haney continued to fight multiple times during his lightweight title fight, but the fight never materialized despite years of public calls and fan demands.

San Francisco-born Haney became the undisputed lightweight champion in 2022, and Davis continued to build his profile as one of boxing’s biggest pay-per-view attractions.

Haney’s rejection of rehydration clauses will likely become a talking point if negotiations move forward. Hydration restrictions became a major topic of debate ahead of Tank’s 2023 fight with Ryan Garcia, with many fans criticizing the terms of the deal.

Devin has recently been linked to potential fights against Ryan Garcia, Shakur Stevenson and Keyshawn Davis. His latest comments put Gervonta Davis back into the conversation after years of failed attempts to make the fight happen.
