Gervonta Davis recently found himself in a spirited Twitter debate. Can anyone at 135-140 lbs beat him? A fan thinks so, suggesting rising star Abdullah Mason might just be the challenge Davis needs. At just 20, Mason boasts an unblemished record of 13-0, with 11 knockouts.

Impressive, right? Meanwhile, Davis is gearing up for a significant bout against Frank Martin, defending his lightweight title. With his own record standing strong at 29-0, this fight isn’t just another defense; it’s a statement. Will Mason’s potential and Davis’s confidence collide in the ring soon?

Abdullah Mason to threaten Tank’s reign at 135?

Initially, a fan tweeted their admiration for Abdullah Mason, stating, “Gervonta Davis is the only person beating Abdullah Mason at 135-140lbs, and even THAT fight is close. Tank is my 2nd favorite fighter of all time behind Floyd Mayweather, but I will never deny what I see. Abdullah Mason is a PROBLEM for any fighter he is in the ring with.”

This sparked interest, especially when Gervonta Davis himself responded assertively. He acknowledged Mason’s growing reputation but affirmed his own superiority: “No lie, he tough like him grow. But ME?! I don’t give a f**k who you are. It’s no one I mean no one that has more skills than me…I’ll show yall on this 6/7 fight run..” Thus, the stage was set for an intriguing discourse among fans and critics alike.

Is Gervonta Davis Dodging Real Fights?

One enthusiast hailed Davis as the premier boxer in his weight class, placing him above competitors like Devin Haney in terms of pure skill.

The discussion also included a more neutral observation, detailing Davis’s potential fight lineup. This list provided a straightforward look at the opponents Davis might face, adding a factual layer to the debate about the quality of his upcoming challenges.

Conversely, another fan offered a more critical view, providing a list that humorously downgraded Davis’s upcoming opponents to everyday figures such as plumbers and mailmen.

Further skepticism came from a fan who bluntly assessed Davis’s track record, suggesting that he tends to avoid top-tier opponents unless he has a clear advantage.

Amidst these critical views, another supporter suggested a challenging path forward. They proposed that for Davis to truly validate his prowess, his next series of fights should include bouts against high-caliber fighters like Devin Haney and Shakur Stevenson.

As Gervonta Davis steps into the ring against Frank Martin and potentially others, will he validate his supporters’ faith or will the critics’ doubts gain new momentum? What are your thoughts?
