Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis: I'd Rather Be Between 130 & 135; Go Up To 140 If The Fight's Right

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Gervonta Davis has felt comfortable competing against bigger sparring partners in the gym these past couple months. The 130-pound and 135-pound champion admits, though, that he doesn't know exactly what to expect when, without headgear and while wearing smaller gloves, he encounters a significantly taller, heavier opponent Saturday night. Whatever happens when he meets Mario Barrios in their 12-round, 140-pound title fight at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Davis would prefer to return to the lightweight division or even the junior lightweight limit after he battles Barrios.

I thought he wanted to fight Regis Ptograis or Mikey? Those are BIG fights @ 140! MAN UP!

nah. He doesn't wanna fight mikey, regis, taylor, haney, lopez, lomachencko, russell jr.


He will only fight ryan, jo jo diaz or valdez

Even those 3 might be to much of a risk

the right fight seems to be guys that suck or are fake champions

He refuses to pick a weight class because then there would be a clear and obvious opponent for him. He doesn’t want that.

I wish he cut down to 126.

So Barrios is the right fight at 140?

Idec is full on 'tard. Davis aint a champ at 135.

Everyone that keeps saying that Tank is ducking the real champions is either a casual or just stupid!!! He's making the best fights out of what's available to him.
