Gervonta Davis. Next star or next also ran?

I hope I'm wrong, but something in Davis' character leads me to believe that this has "train wreck" written all over it. I wish him well. But this seems like a troubled young man who might very well encounter severe real-life issues once he's out of boxing.

tank knows there's not a lot of interest in his fight with lamont so he had to create some drama to get some buzz

[TitoFan]

He still looks like a train wreck waiting to happen once he's outside of boxing.

probably, it's just that before most of his fights there is some drama to drum up interest, like his fake beefs with floyd in previous fights. this fight it's talk of next year being his last in the sport

Yeah. These fake retirements are getting to be like the boy that cried wolf. Sooner or later (if it hasn't happened already), people are going to turn an automatic deaf ear on any boxer (except the serious ones) that claims he's retiring.

One reporter said to Davis: "Inoue said that there's nothing that you have that can give him real problems and all you have is power."

Davis instantly looked shocked and asked: "He said that?"

The reporter insisted: "Inoue said that yeah."

At this point other reporters chimed in and disagreed, with none of them having seen this supposed quote.

Davis replied: "I don't wanna go crazy. You're trying to catch me."

noue clarified the situation himself.

He tweeted: "I never said anything like that."

This will not come as a surprise to most boxing fans who have watch Inoue's interviews previously as he seldom ever has anything negative to say about rival boxers.
