Mayweather Promotions CEO Names the “Most Exciting Fighter in the World”

The ‘Money Team’ has accumulated a good list of fighters. Some of the names include Badou Jack, Gervonta Davis, Mickey Bey Jr., Andre Tabiti, Malik Warren, Lanell Bellows, Rolando Romero and many more. But according to the CEO, there is one fighter who stands out in this group. Actually, in the entire industry.

Leonard Ellerbe took to X to reveal who he thinks is the fighter who has captured and held the attention of fans and pugilists alike. His last fight made record-breaking numbers and he is now looking for his possible opponent. Any guesses?

Does Gervonta Davis make the cut?

After absorbing a punishing liver shot from ‘Tank’ in their highly anticipated super fight, Ryan Garcia suffered a delayed reaction, eventually taking a knee for the second time. The decisive moment occurred at 1:44 of Round 7 in front of a sold-out crowd of 20,842. Davis’ last fight made exemplary numbers and not without a reason. Even the CEO of Mayweather Promotions agrees.

BoxingEgo’s post on X called out everyone who questioned Davis. It said ” If Tank Davis “needs to fight somebody” and he ain’t this and that, why does he continue to OUTSELL everybody in or around his weight class? More attention, more PPVs, BIGGER Live Gates, Bigger Attractions and Spectacles…If everyone else is doing it “RIGHT” and Gervonta is doing it “WRONG”, why are the ppl who are doing it right with their fights not outperforming him?”

To this, Ellerbe responded saying “He’s the most exciting fighter in the entire world!!!!!!” Like many others, he also believes in Davis’ strength and prowess. Davis has achieved success across three weight classes, securing multiple world championships from super featherweight to light welterweight. Renowned for his formidable punching power and aggressive fighting approach, Davis boasts an impressive knockout-to-win ratio exceeding 80%. What is next for the boxer now?

Davis is on the rise currently. After his release, he even changed his religion and took the name of Abdul Wahid. As he debates who to fight next among names like Manny Pacquiao and Devin Haney, do you agree with Ellerbe? Who according to you is the most exciting fighter currently?
