Gervonta Davis Blasts Frank Martin for Partying with Ryan Garcia

By
Gervonta Davis

Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis (29-0, 27 KOs) is making to return to the ring after a yearlong hiatus. The three-division world champion is set to face Frank Martin (18-0, 12 KOs) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, NV, in what will undoubtedly be a sensational showdown. With the fight day fast approaching, Davis stirred up a cauldron of boiling beef stew by accusing Martin of not having the skills to party with his former opponent, Ryan Garcia (25-1, 20 KOs).

Davis and Martin recently attended the latest episode of Million Dollaz Worth of Game, hosted by Wallo and Gille da King. In conversation, it became certain that Davis had an issue with Martin partying with Garcia, and he wasted no time voicing his criticism.

“You’ve been out with Ryan (Garcia), partying. You been drinking, been out with him partying. Not recently but you have, you have. Do you have the skills to do that? Do you have the skills to be out partying and missing? You don’t have the skills to be doing that bro,” he said.

Davis stood firm in the belief that Martin was not skilled enough to miss training. Moreover, he pointed out the fact that Martin had begun training at a later age and mentioned that if he were in his situation, he would’ve been training nonstop.

“I’m Going To Take It Out On Him”

With June 15, 2024, in the books for their pugilistic spectacle, the boxing community and fans undoubtedly expect thunderous performances. On the other hand, Davis hinted that Martin might face annihilation on fight night.

‘It’s difficult to beat him’ – Lennox Lewis makes bold Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk prediction

By
Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury

Lennox Lewis is backing Tyson Fury to beat Oleksandr Usyk.

Fury and Usyk square off in the first undisputed heavyweight title fight in 25 years on May 18 at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The last time all the belts were on the line, Lewis defeated Evander Holyfield for the IBF, WBA and WBC straps at a time when the WBO wasn’t recognised as a major sanctioning body.

There are several similarities between Fury vs Usyk and Lewis vs Holyfield.

Like Holyfield, Usyk spent the early portion of his career at cruiserweight before moving up in weight.

Meanwhile, Fury and Lewis are career-long heavyweights who both tip the scales at around 250lbs.

In the last undisputed clash, the bigger man won and Lewis expects history to repeat itself later this month.

“I believe that Tyson Fury has great attributes, he’s tall, he can box out of both stances, he can go forward,” he told talkSPORT’s Spencer Oliver.

“Right now to me it’s difficult to beat a bigger guy so I’ll always say the bigger guy has the advantage.”

Most boxing experts are predicting that Fury will have to get it done inside the distance if he hopes to beat the Ukrainian slickster.

But ‘The Lion’ is backing Fury to get his hand raised after 12 rounds.

“I think Tyson Fury on points, but I’m not counting out Usyk,” he added.

When asked about Fury’s keys to victory, Lewis replied: “He’s got to use his attributes, he’s got to be elusive and throw that jab.

“He has to do what he knows he has to do. He’s been there before, he’s boxed smaller guys, he just has to bring everything together.”

Turning his attention to Usyk, he remarked: “Usyk will do what he normally does.

“He is going to move well around the ring, he’s going to try and bring Tyson out of his shell.

“It’s going to take a couple of rounds for him because both guys are going to take some time to get used to each other.

“It will take at least four rounds for something to crack through. Who will be the first man to attack? Maybe it will be Usyk.

“Who’s going to be the guy throwing all the jabs and moving around? Usyk will because he’s got to find a way to get in against a 6-foot-9 heavyweight.

“This is the first time he’s gone against a 6-foot-9 heavyweight.”

Both Fury and Usyk go into the blockbuster bout having never tasted defeat since turning professional.

And you can expect fireworks in the ring with the duo boasting 38 knockouts between them from their combined 56 fights.

Canelo Alvarez isn’t the best in the world – he doesn’t top razor-sharp Terence Crawford

By
Terence Crawford

Inevitably when Saul Alvarez and Naoya Inoue fight on the same weekend, the conversation turns to the pound-for-pound crown.

Inoue is a tremendous puncher, probably the hardest pound-for-pound, as he proved by putting Luis Nery away in the sixth round in Tokyo. Alvarez is a phenomenon. He has lost only twice in a long career, the first time against one of the best defensive fighters in history, Floyd Mayweather, the second against one of the great light-heavyweights of the age, Dimitry Bivol.

Canelo had too much for Jaime Munguia last week, inflicting a first career defeat on his fellow Mexican. He claimed the win proved he is still the best fighter in the world. He’s an elite performer for sure, but neither Inoue nor Canelo top Terence Crawford in my mind.

Crawford won his first world title at lightweight against Ricky Burns in Glasgow a decade ago. That was the first time I saw him in the flesh. We heard all the talk about him, and he lived up to it.

They are speculating about a fight with Alvarez. He should forget that. As it is, he has gone through the divisions from lightweight to welter. You reach a stage where a ceiling is hit. Brilliance at a certain weight no longer transfers. A bit like Canelo against Bivol. As brilliant as Canelo is at super-middleweight, he ran out of gas at light heavy.

Crawford is old school – his timing, speed and spatial awareness is remarkable. He does not look like a heavy puncher but he is razor sharp and his feet are always in perfect position. So every time he hits you, you feel it. He drifts in and out of punching range and never gets nailed. Inoue is more explosive but Crawford does not get hit like Inoue did last week.

After Crawford, Inoue and Canelo, I would have Bivol and fellow light heavy Artur Beterbiev in the list. We shall have to wait until Beterbiev recovers from injury to determine which order they sit after their June 1 date was pulled.

For his amateur success, cruiserweight record as a pro and the outclassing of Anthony Joshua at heavyweight, Oleksandr Usyk has to be in any top-10 list. Tyson Fury, too, but he has not fought the class of opponent Usyk has. Again, which order they sit in will be determined next week.

Gervonta Davis also makes my list of pound-for-pound contenders. Even before Devin Haney lost to Garcia, in what we now know were debatable circumstances, I had Davis ahead of Haney and Shakur Stephenson, who are both defensive fighters. You can’t take your eyes off Davis – my kind of fighter who puts everything on the line.

Ranking The Best Ever USA Boxing Events Ahead Of Terence Crawford Card In August

By
Terence Crawford

The era of Turki Al-Alshikh is now in full swing as major boxing cards continue to be announced and fans are finally granted their wish of the best fighting the best – for the most part.

Now, there is further excitement as these events begin to take place away from the Middle East and the announcement of Israil Madrimov vs. Terence Crawford has got the whole of the United States talking and claiming it could arguably be the greatest card to ever take place across the pond.

Here, we at Boxing Social have ranked what we believe to be the strongest cards to ever be staged in the United States of America.

5. Lennox Lewis (22-0) vs. Tony Tucker (48-1) – 8th May 1993

In fifth place we have opted for Lennox Lewis’s first defence of the WBC heavyweight title, where he was tasked with Tony Tucker (48-1), setting out to prove that he was a worthy champion after being awarded the belt outside of the ring – due to Riddick Bowe’s reluctance to face him.

Lewis would step up to the challenge and deliver a comfortable unanimous-decision victory over the American, dropping his opponent twice.

On the undercard, Gerald McClellan was crowned as WBC middleweight champion as he knocked out Julian Jackson, after the legendary Julio Cesar Chavez extended his record to 87-0 with a stoppage win over Terrence Alli in an eleventh defence of his belt.

Meanwhile, Chavez’s fellow 140lbs and former opponents Hector Camacho and Meldrick Taylor also appeared on the bill, each of whom were multi-divisional world champions.

4. Israil Madrimov (10-0-1) vs. Terence Crawford (40-0) – 3rd August 2024

We are positioning Madrimov-Crawford at a respectable fourth, although admittedly it will be easier to rank the event after it’s completion.

Terence Crawford will rightfully be respected as a great of the sport, after becoming the first man to be an undisputed four-belt champion in multiple divisions and finally defeating Errol Spence Jr in a performance that will be recommended as a must-watch for generations.

‘Bud’ will debut at super-welterweight in a WBA world title challenge against Madrimov, who is already being overlooked, but make no mistake – this is a tough affair for the American.

Elsewhere on the bill, we are sure to witness a thriller as Vergil Ortiz Jr. takes on Tim Tszyu in a fight that was on many people’s ‘must-see’ lists at the beginning of the year. The fact that this bout is on an undercard is absolutely insane.

Accompanying that potential fight of the year, is the return of unified heavyweight champion Andy Ruiz Jr, whilst highly-rated David Morrell steps up to light-heavyweight for the first time, Isaac Cruz makes a first defence of his lightweight world title and amateur sensation Andy Cruz fights for the fourth time of his professional career.

3. Larry Holmes (31-0) vs. Earnie Shavers (59-7-1) II – 28th September 1979

If you are looking for high-profile names on a Don King card then Holmes-Shavers II is the ultimate event from the infamous promoter, featuring five Hall of Famer’s on the bill.

Holmes came close to losing his undefeated record in the main-event, being dropped for the second time in his career against the hard-hitting challenger, before rallying and scoring an eleventh-round TKO victory to defeat Shavers once again.

Before that, Puerto-Rican fan-favourite Wilfredo Gomez knocked out Carlos Mendoza to defend the WBC super-bantamweight crown, whilst ‘Sugar’ Ray Leonard improved to 25-0 with a first-round knockout against Andy Price, each of those bouts coming after contests involving the iconic Roberto Duran and one of the greatest heavyweights to never win a world title – Jimmy Young.

2. Jack Dempsey (52-5-8) vs. Billy Miske II (52-11-16) – 6th September 1920

Pipped at the post is the card that was promoted as ‘Boxing’s Greatest Fight Card’ at the time and rightfully so, as Jack Dempsey defended the heavyweight world title against Billy Miske, less than two years after their original and disappointing six-rounder went the distance.

Dempsey would get the stoppage this time, dropping Miske for the first-time in his career and becoming the only man to ever knock him out when the fight was brought to an end in the third-round – a true testament of the power that ‘The Manassa Mauler’ was blessed with.

On the undercard Dempsey was joined by two of boxing’s all-time superstars, as the greatest heavyweight to never win a world title, Sam Langford, lost a controversial-decision to Bill Tate in what was the 227th professional outing of his career.

This performance was then followed by the appearance of the arguable pound-for-pound number one of all-time, Harry Greb, who won a decision of his own against Chuck Wiggins in his 189th bout.

1. Julio Chavez Jr (89-1-1) vs. Frankie Randall (49-2-1) – 7th May 1994

However, for our money Chavez-Randall II headlined the greatest card to ever grace the ‘Land of the Free’, as the Mexican hero bounced back to avenge the first defeat of his 91 fight career with a technical split-decision victory over Frankie Randall, topping a Don King card simply billed as “Revenge: The Rematches”, as four WBC world title clashes were run back for a second time.

Gerald McClennan knocked out Julian Jackson again, but this time in the opening round as he retained the WBC middleweight title, although that was the only result that matched the respective initial encounters.

Azumah Nelson would lose his WBC super-featherweight title to Jesse James Leija after drawing eight months previous, whilst Terry Norris won back in super-welterweight title by outpointing Simon Brown to claim revenge after being knocked out in their first meeting.

Meldrick Taylor would also appear on the card, as well as a fifth world title contest for the WBC minimumweight strap where Ricardo Lopez claimed a unanimous-decision over Kermin Guardia in a battle between two undefeated fighters who had featured in a combined 57 contests up until that point.

Wilder ‘ll fight Anthony Joshua at Wembley

By
Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder

Deontay Wilder’s long-time trainer, Malik Scott claims the ‘Bronze Bomber’ would agree to fight Anthony Joshua at Wembley Stadium in London.

The former heavyweight world champion hasn’t fought since his shock defeat to Joseph Parker back in December and is desperate to get back in the win column in his upcoming fight with Zhilei Zhang on the 1st of June. A one-of-a-kind event was announced Monday as a squad of fighters representing Queensberry Promotions take on boxers from Matchroom in a unique five vs. five event to take place on June1 in Saudi Arabia.

In one of the more intriguing plot twists, Wilder— a long-time rival of Eddie Hearn’s prized fighter Joshua — will represent Hearn’s Matchroom.

Another defeat could spell the end of Wilder’s glittering career. However, a huge win in Saudi Arabia could put his name back into the world title mix.

A showdown with the winner of Tyson Fury’s undisputed showdown with Usyk is on the American’s radar, and he believes he would have an easier night against the Ukrainian.

That said, Wilder is also eyeing up a showdown with ‘AJ,’ and his trainer believes he’d be willing to fight the Brit in England.

Both Wilder and Joshua have been tipped to fight each other for a while, but the American claimed Joshua turned down a lucrative offer to do battle.

Speaking about a potential clash between Wilder and Joshua in the UK, Scott told Casino Online In: “If Joshua’s free, that’s a bigger name than Jared Anderson. Deontay for the right price and the right legacy would fly to Wembley to fight AJ faster than Superman changes clothes.

“Deontay would fight AJ anywhere. He went to Russia to fight Povetkin and he’ll fight anyone anywhere in the world. He’s a world fighter, not a fighter that just fights at home. I also believe Deontay wants the Tyson Fury fight before he retires, Fury is definitely on his hit list and he is very open to it.”

With a lot on the line next month, Scott believes ‘The Bronze Bomber’ is remotivated ahead of his showdown with the Chinese superstar.

With Confidence in Tatters, Ryan Garcia Writes off ‘Damaged Goods’ Devin Haney Against Gervonta Davis

By
Gervonta Davis vs Ryan Garcia

Devin Haney‘s stocks have taken a hit ever since he found himself floored on the canvas three times when he fought Ryan Garcia. The devastating loss has shattered his confidence, and there are doubts about him bouncing back strongly if he were to meet with the likes of Gervonta Davis. Can the American boxer do it against top fighters now?

‘The Dream’ and ‘Tank’ have been at each other’s throats in recent days, where the two even got embroiled in a confrontation at a bar. Their old rivalry is brimming with tensions, and as such, there are talks of who would topple whom if they were to clash next. When asked the same from Garcia, 25, he initially put his money on Haney a couple of weeks ago. But not anymore.

Ryan Garcia backtracks on Devin Haney’s chances

‘KingRy,’ who has fought both Haney and Davis, believed Haney would emerge as a victor and admitted the same when he appeared on the PBD Podcast two weeks ago. He had declared, “Haney beats ‘Tank’… ‘Tank’ won’t get to Haney. Definitely, Haney will beat ‘Tank’.” However, there is a shift in his opinion, as the lightweight boxer expressed his views in a recent X Live Space.

Garcia said, “Nah, not anymore, bro. He [Devin Hany] won’t beat Tank because I think he is damaged goods for the rest of his life.“ He also pointed out that the hypothetical fight would have been close if Haney hadn’t lost to him. The 25-1 record holder continued, “It would have been close because he would have been more confident.”

Garcia, who has faced the brunt of Davis’ power, then passed a verdict on the Baltimore native’s power, which separated him from the rest. Despite getting knocked out with a body shot from him, Garcia suggested that Davis’ power had more to do with timing.

Gervonta Davis’ power: precision, not sheer force?

The Victorville native contended that Davis’ power didn’t hurt but worked because they were fast and precise. He continued, “I’m being real, bro. I’m trying to tell you about Tank’s power, bro. It’s more about timing, bro. It doesn’t hurt when he hits you. That’s fast. Whatever Tank is doing, is working.”

Meanwhile, for Davis, at 29-0 with 27 KOs, the idea of a rematch with Garcia is lucrative now. While Garcia has pitched the idea of a rematch at a catchweight of 145, Davis is open to it at 140. He told Cigar Talks, “He’s [Ryan Garcia] not even at 145, that’s not even a weight… Why it can’t be 140? Yeah, I’ll fight Ryan.”

It remains to be seen whether boxing fans will have their wish and whether Garcia and Davis will run it back soon. They will also be keen on how Devin Haney navigates his career next.

What do you make of these comments by Ryan Garcia about Devin Haney and Gervonta Davis? Do you think Haney beats Davis? Let us know in the comments below.

Floyd Mayweather and Gervonta Davis Told to Fight Like Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson

By

There’s only one way to settle beef in boxing! What’s that? Through a boxing match, of course. So, retired world champion Shane Mosley has suggested Gervonta Davis and Floyd Mayweather should do the same like Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. The former boxer-promoter/mentor duo has been throwing shade at each other for a while now! Why?

According to reports, Mayweather took a sly but subtle dig at his former star fighter, claiming fighters today chose to blow their money on expensive stuff. Instead of doing the smart thing by investing it. Davis promptly responded to this by revealing Floyd was stuck in Dubai. Why? Ironically, because of unpaid dues. Thus, starting their feud! While appearing in an interview with The Art Of Dialogue, Shane Mosley quickly proposed a fight to finally settle the beef!

Shane Mosley sees the fight happening at 140 or 145 pounds

Speaking about who would win between Davis and prime Floyd Mayweather, Mosley seemed confident ‘Pretty Boy’ would emerge victorious. However, when the host asked what would the result be if ‘Tank’ and ‘Money’ fought today, Mosley didn’t seem to have an answer. So, he said, “They should run that! Let’s see [if they can hold their own]. That [would] be a big one.”

Davis is 29-years-old and Mayweather is sitting comfortably at 47, so a fight isn’t impossible. Mosley’s proposal, though, has breathed new life into the idea, making the fight seem even more feasible. He said, “Then, you know, they could sanction it like Tyson and Jake Paul doing, right? To see if he can hold his own. Let’s run it! Do it at 140, 145.”

While Davis last entered the ring in April last year, Mayweather has also remained relatively active. Even though not as talented as Davis, John Gotti III fought Mayweather in June last year, proving ‘Money’ can still do the dance in the ring. However, it’s entirely up to both fighters whether they would want such a fight to happen. Nevertheless, a not so old tweet from Gervonta Davis suggests he would win in a fight against Mayweather.

Amid feud with Gervonta Davis, Floyd Mayweather announces his next fight

During the peak of their feud, Gervonta Davis tweeted, “Now I f*** around and knock Floyd out when I see em and I’ll care about going back to jail,” referencing his 90 days stint in Baltimore jail for breaking house arrest rules. He further added, “He such a b**** he don’t allow his security carry guns…”

Soon afterwards, Floyd Mayweather hopped on Instagram to announce his next fight, full announcement due on May 15. While the opponent is unlikely to be Davis, Mayweather has been linked with several potential opponents, alongside a failed rematch attempt against last exhibition opponent John Gotti III.

Though unlikely, a fight between Floyd Mayweather and Gervonta Davis has the potential to overshadow even the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul fight. However, hypothetically if they did fight and that too on the same card, the numbers from such an event will be astronomical! What do you think? Would you want to watch such a clash?

Hearn Hopes Ennis’ Road Will Lead To Crawford At 154

By

Jaron “Boots” Ennis will re-start his promising career against Cody Crowley on a path that his new promoter, Matchroom’s Eddie Hearn,

believes will lead to a showdown with Terence Crawford.

Hearn will unveil his plans for Ennis on Friday in Philadelphia at a news conference that will feature his Matchroom debut against Crowley, a Canadian, at Philly’s Wells Fargo Center on July 13.

“Everyone in the welterweight division, I think, is now looking at Boots,” the busy Hearn said Wednesday while in Phoenix for a news conference teasing the June 29 bout between junior bantamweights Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez and Juan Francisco Estrada. “He’s now the focus of all the key players at 147 pounds.”

Ennis, who signed a multi-fight deal with Matchroom last month, has the International Boxing Federation’s welterweight belt, which the IBF awarded him in November after it stripped Crawford.

Crawford, who has been at the top of the pound-for-pound debate since his stoppage of Errol Spence Jr. last July, is moving up to junior middleweight.

The unbeaten Crawford (40-0, 31 KOs) will make his 154-pound debut against the mostly unknown Israil Madrimov (10-0-1, 7 KOs) of Uzbekistan on Aug. 3 at BMO Stadium, the old Sports Arena in Los Angeles.

Crawford’s move up the scale opens up a chance for Ennis (31-0, 28 KOs) to unify the 147-pound title, Hearn says.

Leading contenders include Eimantas Stanionis and Mario Barrios.

Stanionis is the World Boxing Association’s so-called “regular” welterweight champion. Barrios holds the World Boxing Council’s interim welterweight belt.

Tim Tszyu could get back into the 154-pound mix, too. He lost the World Boxing Organization’s junior middleweight title to Sebastian Fundora in a stunning, bloody upset March 30.

All could play a part in Ennis’ attempt to unify the welterweight title.

But Hearn’s long-term goal for Ennis, who hasn’t fought since a KO of Roiman Villa last July 7, is a showdown with Crawford.

“At 154 pounds,’’ Hearn clarified, before leaving Phoenix for Philly.

Ennis-Crawford can happen, Hearn said, because of Crawford’s new relationship with Saudi Prince Turki Alalshikh, who put together the Crawford-Madrimov bout.

“Crawford will want a lot of money to fight Boots,” Hearn said.

Alalshikh has a lot.

Claressa Shields slams Gervonta Davis with Ryan Garcia insult after boxer’s ‘French bulldog’ remark

By
Gervonta Davis

Female middleweight undisputed champion Claressa Shields has called out Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis after the boxer took aim at her looks, likening her to a ‘French bulldog’.

Shields is widely considered to be the most lethal fighter in women’s boxing with a 14-bout undefeated record, including two KOs.

The Baltimore native surprised many by appearing to stand up for Garcia, the former rival he fought and stopped in April 2023. The American fighter tested positive for ostarine before his win over Devin Haney, but escaped a positive test for another banned substance.

And he made an ugly jibe at Shields, who had criticized Garcia failing his doping test, attacking the way she looked.

“So Ryan beat buddy a** fair and square… what the french bulldog lady (Claressa) have to say about?” Davis wrote on X. “And she blocked me. I shoulda blocked her a** for the way she look… she scare me”.

Shields fights as she does in the ring

But Davis should know that if you take a swing for the Queen, you better not miss. Shields came back firing and fuming in equal measure, appearing to accuse Davis of allegedly ‘beating up’ women he is interested in.

“I am so happy that you think I look like a French bulldog and consider me ugly, because you beat up b**** that you consider cute,” Shields said. “I’m glad I’m ugly to you. Go win some belts. You standing up here Tweeting. If you that lonely, go and find you some friends.

“Oh, I want to ask you a question. Why are you on Ryan’s d*** so hard? ‘Oh, Ryan’s test just came back and he wasn’t dirty.’ He ain’t even tested the B-sample yet.

“Why are you so worried about Devin Haney’s business? What is wrong with you, boy? Ain’t you supposed to be focusing on your fight?

The 29-year-old from Michigan finished off her rant with an explanation for Davis ducking top opponents – and insists he would be nowhere without the influence of Floyd Mayweather Jr.

“If you didn’t have Floyd holding your hand, I don’t know where you would be at. “He’s got to hold your hand and pick your fights for you,” she added. “That’s why you’re never going to get inside the ring with Shakur. That’s why you haven’t fought Devin. That’s why you fought a weight-drained Ryan.”
