Rumours abound that Gervonta and Adrien Davis will be fighting at UFC 202. Tank’s PR guy, Lorin Chvotkin, also claims to be in the mix. Showtime boss Stephen Espinoza has boldly denied the rumor. However, the footage of AB and Tank hanging from each other’s arms is factual. Here’s a breakdown of the fight.
Adrien Broner is a former “next Floyd Mayweather,” according to HBO executives. The HBO network does not cover boxing, despite this. Broner was once considered to be the “next Floyd Mayweather,” however, that is no longer the case. In addition to being considered the next Floyd Mayweather, Davis is also considered a rising star in the sport. Let’s get to know them a little better.
Mike Davis is unbeaten, with a record 22-0-0 with 21 knockouts. He will make his debut as a lightweight when he faces Yuriorkis Gamoa in December. The bout will take place at the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, CT. The venue could change depending on Covid-19 rules. What are the odds of that? So what do we have to look forward to?
It will be interesting to see how Broner and Davis fight. While Davis may look better from the outside, Broner is desperate to make a buck. If Broner loses, he’ll need to fight someone else. It would also be good for Davis to have a big payday to pay off the losses that he has suffered in recent months. The fight will be broadcast live on World Boxing News, which has over one billion views.
It will be a fascinating fight to watch, due to the fact that Davis is a friend of Floyd Mayweather and Broner is an IBF junior lightweight champion. Both have their ups and downs. Davis recently beat Tevin Farmer and tagged Mayweather in a tweet. There is speculation that the fight is set to be a high-profile bout, but it is far from a certainty. Regardless of the outcome, it will be a memorable fight.
Before the fight, the two fighters had a remarkably low-profile career. Before fighting, Davis had fought Ricardo Nunez and Jesus Cuellar in April 2018. In October 2014, Davis won a six-round fight in Baltimore against German Meraz. Davis signed with Floyd Mayweather a few months later. But, there were still some issues between the fighters. Davis was in fact a top contender at that time.
