“Disgrace To Boxing” – Fans Outraged As Gervonta Davis Gears Up To Face Lamont Roach For The WBA Lightweight World Title
Lamont Roach and Gervonta DavisBeing at the top of a mountain with no rivals is a different experience than standing on a peak surrounded by fierce competition. The person who remains steady at the summit after overcoming tough challenges earns respect from everyone, unlike those who merely bask in the emptiness of their dominance. Similarly, every now and then, Gervonta Davis has found himself under the spotlight for taking on lackluster opponents. Now, as the announcement of his fight against Lamont Roach rings out, ‘Tank’ is once again weathering the storm of criticism.
Recently, Michael Bisping dropped the news that the fight between Davis and Roach is reportedly set for December 14th, and it looks like the WBA has confirmed it. They’ve given Roach the green light to challenge Davis for his WBA lightweight title while still holding onto his WBA super-featherweight title.
Fans were hyped about potential matchups with big names like Shakur Stevenson or Devin Haney. But when Davis chose Roach—who many see as a lackluster opponent—disappointment hit hard. Consequently, when the announcement rolled out, fans came out swinging, taking their shots at him.
One fan, showing his disappointment, said Davis is a disgrace to boxing.
Another fan dragged Tank, saying he only fights handpicked opponents.
One fan claimed Davis is nothing but a flat-out gimmick and scammer.
Meanwhile, one fan commented that this is why a boxer like Oleksandr Usyk needs to be respected, as he always fights the top names in the industry.
Boxing Reporter Steps in to Save Gervonta Davis
Amidst the criticism coming from all sides, boxing reporter Elie Seckbach defended the undefeated boxer. In a video that has gone viral online, Seckbach argued that Davis shouldn’t be blamed. Reason? Given fighters don’t choose who they fight. He placed the blame on the promoter for arranging these types of opponents.
He said, “Any fighter doesn’t determine who they fight. The promoter picks fighters for them. Fighters don’t have that power. Do you think they do? It doesn’t work like that? Fighters don’t control nothing.”
Indeed, despite his domination in previous matches against superstars like Ryan Garcia, fans are eager to see Davis take on the best in the division. While he is set to fight Roach in his upcoming bout, it will be interesting to see who he faces next.
