Gervonta Davis has established himself as one of the best lightweights in the world. Even though he has everything anyone can dream of. But the journey wasn’t easy for the Baltimore hard-hitter. He overcame a lot of negatives in his life to be where he is now. And he is ready to fight one of his most challenging opponents ever. Davis will face Ryan Garcia in one of the most anticipated lightweight bouts of the year. And every fight puts a lot of pressure on the boxers. And it seems like the pressure is not the only thing Davis is feeling ahead of his fight.

Recently, Davis penned down an emotional message remembering the ones who are not with him anymore and whom he had to bury himself in his journey to cement his position as one of the greats in boxing.

Gervonta Davis’s emotional message

‘Tank’ took to Twitter and shared the emotional message with the world. Davis’s childhood was full of ups and down. His father was incarcerated, and his mother was a drug abuser. As a result, he and his two brothers shifted into childcare homes for more than three years before their grandmother took them in.

Davis tweeted and recalled his humble beginnings and how he had to build everything up from the ground. Davis also wrote, “I had to burry sum homies I love.”

This can be considered an insight into the place where he comes from. Davis grew up on violent and unsafe streets. And he has been open about the gun shootings that were prevalent where he use to live.
