Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis won't be kissing a certain Saudi ring anytime soon

Turki doesn't need to know anything about the Sport / Business of boxing to do things , he can hire people who do know. That said , I don't like the league ideas .

Not sure that Tank isnt up to something that makes him fear going to SA. Not necessarrily anything bad, but uncontrolable. They put people in jail there for loud talking.

Tank is full of shit! Everyone has a price for your "Excellency". If Turki was to offer him a shit load of guaranteed money not percentages to fight a Shakur Stevenson. He would be a damned fool not to do it.

Remember when Canelo was uttering similar things as Davis about your "Majesty" I mean your "Excellency" and looked what happened?

He ended up kissing the ring after all. Which has left many of his La Raza and Latino fan base livid to ditch fighting on the two most important Mexican holidays; Cinco De Mayo and Mexican Independence Day.

Many of them believe he has sold out and is being set up to fail by Turki Alalshikh. Man when it get right down to it. Anything can be sold and everyone has a price when it comes to money. To be exact and that is a fact.

turki likes to see undisputed fights tanks thinks they are a gimmick LOL it just wont work!!!!!!

i never saw G.Davis do anything for boxing except to get his PPV money and stay out of jail due to his reputation and money, so when he talks not that many people are going to listen and when the money is right for him he will turn it over and take the cash......................

Why, because they might ask him to fight someone good for once?

Turki definitely pays over the market rate but he demands dream / competitive match ups which is against Gervonta's religion, integrity, moral principles or whatever you want to call his excuses for refusing to fight dangerous opponents.

Smartest thing he could do. The Saudi thing ain’t for everyone. Turki matches up these guys in the fight if their lives and you do what Turki says.
Tank has his fake hood fans buying up PPV at low, but moneymaking numbers, so won’t take the chance of Turki putting him in with very good competition.

Tank is the true king of boxing. A big enough draw that he can fight anywhere in the U.S. and do what he wants, without having to bow to a murderous despot like every other big name chump in the sport. Not to mention, pound for pound, the biggest puncher in boxing right now. His timing, ring iq, and power has dudes like Loma turning down career high purses and running for the hills.
