The flames of war between Devin Haney and Gervonta Davis continue to ignite as the war of words continues between the two camps. The two have been in intense rivalry even prior to Haney’s bout against Regis Prograis. As Haney prepared to fight for the super lightweight title, Davis fired cryptic shots at him. Interestingly as the fight ended with his dominating victory over Prograis, it was now time for Haney to return the favor.
Both Devin and Bill Haney blasted Tank in the post-fight conference. Moreover, even though he already has a mandatory waiting for him, it seems Haney is interested in fighting Davis next. As the saga continues, Davis decided to unearth the video Shakur Stevenson used to mock Haney’s ascension to the higher-weight division.

This had left Bill Haney fuming as he stated, “Today I’m on Shakur’s a*s. He’s a fraud, he’s a fake. He’s around here recording motherf***ers.” In retaliation, he even shared the clip of Stevenson and Haney sparring during which the former tapped out quickly stating, “I’m tired”. This had led to a lot of fans claiming Stevenson is no match for Haney.
Interestingly, Gervonta Davis has now used the exact same clip to mock Bill as well. In the video that surfaced on Twitter, Davis could be seen mocking the way Bill Haney talked. He copied Haney’s manner of saying, “We already ready to go to 40 bro.” This is not the only shot Davis took at them though.
