Devin Haney and Gervonta Davis are probably the biggest names in the current sport of boxing. The rivalry between the two has been going on for a long time now. Last year it seemed like the two would end up facing one another as the talks between them started heating up after Haney’s victory over Regis Prograis. So how come the two didn’t manage to secure the fight?

Ultimately the fight ended up getting scrapped and Haney moved to Ryan Garcia after getting no indication from Davis of the fight moving forward. Bill Haney claimed that Davis had turned down a $20 million offer for the fight. This caused a lot of fans to blame Tank for ducking Haney. However, it seems that Davis has found a way to prove that he is not afraid of Haney. Here’s what he claimed as he brought up his sparring session with the former world champion, Shawn Porter.

Gervonta Davis uses Shawn Porter to prove his ability

Shawn Porter appeared to be full of praises for Tank as he shared his rationale during the session. Porter claimed that he was more focused on assessing if Davis lived up to his reputation or not. He acknowledged that “Tank is the real deal”, though he chalked his performance up to him focusing more on analyzing Tank and it seems that Davis wasn’t too happy with his comments.

Here’s what Davis wrote as he took to Twitter, “Now, ask Shawn this question. if I beat his a** in the gym and he was over 147lbs… why tf would I be scared to fight a *f w just a nose… sh*t not adding up!”. Through this statement, Davis is conveying that he doesn’t fear opponents in higher weight classes thus claiming that he is not afraid to face Haney. Interestingly, Haney has another contender looking for a potential bout.
