Gervonta Davis and Floyd Mayweather have had an on-and-off relationship lately. Davis became a protégé of Floyd Mayweather only two years after he started his professional career back in 2013. Under Floyd’s tutelage, the Baltimorean managed a flawless 26-0  but things had begun straining between the former mentor-mentee right before Tank’s fight with Rolando Romero in 2022. Gervonta left Mayweather Promotions and took charge of his own career. But that’s not all.

Floyd Mayweather has been in Dubai for quite some time. Now many would speculate that he’s enjoying his vacation there. Well, not according to ‘Tank’. Davis has claimed that Mayweather is stuck in the city and is unable to get out because of the huge debts he owes to the people there.

Gervonta Davis hits out at Floyd for holier-than-thou act

While talking to FightHype, Floyd Mayweather recently threw some light on his unique discipline and mindset. He specifically talked about what sets him apart from the other fighters. Despite earning millions, he always found the motivation to get back in the gym and work hard for his next fight, and for this reason, he was able to set the 50-0 benchmark, all while fighting opponents like Oscar De La Hoya, Canelo Alvarez, and Manny Pacquiao.

Well, the clip of this interview was shared by Gervonta Davis on his Instagram Story, where he wrote, “N** say all this bull st but in Dubai and can’t leave becuz he been taking n**** money and not doing what they paid him to do..n***** a f***ing hater.”

Adding on to the drama later, one fan questioned the authenticity of Davis’ statement. Davis responded to the post on X, where he wrote, “He gotta pay them people that money back..if I’m lying tell him to go live rn.” Angered by Davis’ statements about him, Floyd Mayweather decided to respond to his former protégé.

The trump card of revenge

After Gervonta Davis made the tweets about him being held hostage in Dubai, ‘Money’ took to Instagram, where he tried to humiliate Tank for his statements about him. In one of the stories on his Instagram, Floyd Mayweather posted an old TikTok dancing video of Davis in his drawers, and on top of this he wrote, “We always knew He had sugar in his Tank.“

After this story, he posted a video of Shakur Stevenson calling out Davis for ducking him. Stevenson can be seen pleading with Davis to stop all the trash-talk and get to the negotiations part for their fight in the near future. Well, this video could be a way for Mayweather to showcase how Davis usually tries to dodge the important fights in his career.

Despite these two stories, Mayweather hasn’t given any response, especially about his stay in Dubai. The fans can only wait before the allegations made by Davis can be confirmed. What do you think about this beef? Tell us your thoughts in the comments section.
