Gervonta Davis is one of the scariest boxers of recent times. In a short span of time, the Maryland native has received some sound attention from hardcore boxing lovers.

“You know I ain’t no damn Mike Tyson versus no Muhammad Ali. It’ll be like, I won’t even say what it’ll be like,” said Davis.
‘Tank’ himself laughed over this comparison. With his comments, he cleared that there’s no comparison between him and Tyson or Muhammad Ali.
Just like any other young gun in the sport, Davis, too, shares massive respect for ‘The Baddest Man on the Planet’ and Ali. That said, not only Davis, but any other young boxing star wouldn’t enjoy getting compared with the likes of Ali and Tyson. This is because they may not feel worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as the pioneers of the sport.
Davis‘ above reaction may have won countless hearts and earned respect from hardcore boxing fans. Currently, ‘Tank’ is involved in his preparations for his upcoming fight against Isaac Cruz, and he’s totally engrossed with his hardcore regimes for this fight.
