The infamous Gervonta Davis vs. Devin Haney sparring session continues to be discussed.Tank’ and ‘The Dream’ are two of the biggest stars in the sport of boxing today.

Could Gervonta Davis vs. Devin Haney happen in 2024?

Gervonta Davis vs. Devin Haney is a possibility for next year, but both men have business to handle until then.

This exchange is just one of many between ‘The Dream’ and ‘Tank’ over this last year. Davis became one of the stars in boxing with his knockout win over Ryan Garcia earlier this year and was quickly called out by many.

Haney was one of those names, and he later added to his own legacy with a win over Vasyl Lomachenko over the summer. Again, the lightweight champion called out Davis, but he was dealing with law issues at the time.

As a result, Devin Haney’s next fight is slated to be a brawl with Regis Prograis next month. That will be the lightweight champion’s first bout up in weight, as he will attempt to become a two-weight champion.

Meanwhile, Gervonta Davis’ return is yet to be formally announced. However, ‘Tank’ has been linked to a January return on pay-per-view. That being said, there’s been no opponent linked to Davis as of now.

Nonetheless, a fight between Davis and Haney remains one of the bigger bouts that could be booked for 2024.
