Gervonta Davis vs. Devin Haney is one of the most highly anticipated fights in the current age of boxing. At the beginning of the year, Davis shut down the idea on social media with a fiery response. Later, he announced his fight against Frank Martin. But the refusal was met with a seemingly innocent fan request. One social media user, clearly eager to see the two Titans clash, made a request to Tank Davis.

The request read, “GIVE US DAVIS vs HANEY U GAH DO IT FOR DA CITY CHAMP.” But Davis wasn’t having it. His reply? “B**** f*** Haney..where my crack pipe at,” wrote back Gervonta Davis. The colorful language made it clear Haney wasn’t even on his radar. Still, Devin Haney believes that this fight will eventually happen. But, in an appearance on the MILLION DOLLAZ WORTH OF GAME podcast, the conjecture hit home when Devin got told to his face of the outcome that awaited him if he were to ever take that fight.

Devin Haney receives a warning about Tank’s body shots

Former undisputed lightweight champion Devin Haney remains optimistic about a future showdown with Gervonta Davis, despite doubts cast by his interviewers, Gillie Da King and Wallo267. While talking about the fight, Haney addressed the potential matchup, acknowledging the skepticism that many have over the fight happening anytime soon. “No, I mean, I definitely think so,” he said, referring to the fight eventually happening, “I think it’s only a matter of time.”

Wallo267, however, expressed his belief that Davis would prevail, citing his aggressive fighting style. “I am with Tank. I think Tank gon get crazy. I seen him. Tank is little different,” he said. Haney, unfazed, countered by highlighting the fight’s potential. “That’s why the fight has to happen because it’s people like you that think Tank will win,” Haney responded.

Wallo267, however, went on to add, “When he get up in there, just make sure you shield up.” In his opinion, the power of Gervonta Davis’ body shots are something most won’t be able to take. He playfully referred to Davis as a “mechanic” who would “fix fenders” in the ring, implying his ability to dismantle opponents.

“It’s people like Gil that think I will win. There’s so many people that just want to see the fight.” However, the issue is Devin Haney would have to sign up with the PBC if he wants to match up with Gervonta Davis, since Tank is promoted by the PBC. But Bill Haney has already expressed his thoughts about the possibility of Devin signing up with the promotion.

No deals with PBC for a Tank fight

Devin Haney’s team, led by his outspoken father Bill, had been name-dropping Tank left and right. They wanted the fight. But when it came to signing with the PBC, the promotional outfit that housed Tank Davis, Team Haney got suspicious. Bill threw out a smokescreen, pointing to Ryan Garcia, their upcoming opponent, who fought under the PBC.

But that was a weak parry. The real question was: why didn’t they sign with PBC if they were so gung-ho about the Davis fight? Bill stated, “If that was the only way the fight could happen, and you can see the fighter we’re fighting [Ryan Garcia] right now fought under Golden Boy fought a fight with them [PBC against Tank Davis]. So that kills that narrative.”

So, Bill Haney didn’t see any benefit in signing a contract under Al Haymon. In fact, they’d rather stay a free agent and work on making the fight against Tank Davis. What are your thoughts about this? Tell us in the comments section.
