In the aftermath of Devin Haney‘s commanding victory over Regis Prograis to claim the WBC junior welterweight title, a social media exchange unfolded between Haney and Gervonta Davis. The exchange was not of a pleasant nature. Devin Haney’s father Bill Haney called out Tank for ducking a fight with his son, while Davis, in his usual brash manner, hit out multiple times with cryptic posts. Even now, the feud shows no signs of slowing.

Gervonta Davis is known for his knockout power, while Haney is more of a distance fighter and isn’t known to knock out his opponents. So, Davis’s coach Kenny Ellis jumped on the Gervonta Davis bandwagon while predicting the outcome of the fight with Haney. Not only that, he even wagered his entire boxing career on it.
