Gervonta Davis is reaching new heights of success after his back-to-back big wins, which have already earned him championships in three distinct divisions. Meanwhile, people have also begun taking note of Davis’ power. Boasting off 24 KOs in 25 wins, ‘Tank’ is undoubtedly an elite knockout artist. Meanwhile, his stardom at an early age has compelled many to compare him with Mike Tyson.

American actor and restaurateur, Danny Trejo, is one of them. He believes Gervonta Davis is a “mini” version of Mike Tyson. Trejo, a hardcore combat fan, spoke with ESNEWS, saying, “Bad, he is bad…He had him. He had him by the 5 inches of that jab. But if you see Davis, Davis kept closing… Why do you think they call him Tank.?”. He concluded by agreeing with the interviewer that he viewed ‘Tank’ as a mini Mike Tyson.

Trejo’s comparison of Davis and Tyson might be valid. Both men burst into stardom at the very beginning of their careers and became world champions at a young age. Furthermore, Gervonta Davis also built himself as a knockout artist, similar to what Mike Tyson had done several years back. Although they reigned at different weight classes, Davis and Tyson reflect several similar features.

Mike Tyson has also shown love towards Davis several times. While the 26-year-0ld is now a three-division champion, the future can be even brighter for him. ‘Tank’, who has several more years left, can only improve to become an even bigger star.

Gervonta Davis – What’s next for ‘Tank’?

After beating Mario Barrios for the WBA (regular) 140 lbs title, Davis is now the hottest prospect of the boxing world. He is receiving call-outs from several A-listers. However, as Floyd Mayweather doesn’t intend on booking Davis against fighters from other promotions, several fantasy fights might not happen anytime soon.

Nevertheless, Regis Prograis and many other boxers like Rolando Romero have expressed interest in facing Davis, Hence, the Baltimore native isn’t running out of options to expand his clout as a professional. That said, ‘Tank’, a boxing star, can only expect to become a mega-star ahead.
