As usual, Gervonta Davis is in the headlines, but not for boxing. The American boxer is training hard to prepare for his yet-to-be-official fight against Frank Martin on June 22. However, it’s his body transformation that has seized the eyeballs, and the fans have gone berserk.
What has the WBA lightweight champion done? He recently uploaded a clip on the internet, and he appeared jacked. He seems to have added more mass to his frame and is lean and ripped. But the fans were not satisfied, as they found a way to mock him. What did they say?
Gervonta Davis maintaining peak fitness ahead of his next fight
Boxing Kingdom uploaded the clip and claimed that the 29-year-old boxer was at 4-5% body fat ahead of his rumored fight. They wrote, “Boxing Star Gervonta Davis absolutely ripped leading up to his bout against Frank Martin. Estimated between 4-5% body fat.”
Fans, who also had some jibes in the store, harshly contested the claim. Notably, many bodybuilders keep the fat percentage close to 5 before tournaments and competitions, as muscles, veins, and striations pop out and are prominently visible. This was not the case this time. So, that became a focal point when fans flooded the comment section.
A fan theorized that Davis was building his body for endurance and preparing for the Frank Martin fight. They said, “He knows he has to box against Frank so he built his body for endurance. Don’t care what anybody says, this is Tank’s toughest opponent ever, and he is respecting it as such, this is gonna be a great fight.”
