Gervonta Davis vs. Hugo Ruiz

[Alpha]

Davis got $1million for that pathetic mismatch which is all Floyd and Ellerbe were bragging about afterwards. They don't even pretend it's a sport anymore, it's all about the hustle/scam, they've won back an audience who are more concerned with "sticking it to the man" than who's the best boxer.

It's not a coincidence Al Haymon came from the music business or has captured a certain market who admire Broner.

Why don’t you just say what you’re really thinking. Anyone who has been here any length of time has caught on. Just say it.

I'll make it easy for you to understand - Star Wars? Now check this shit - those movies are about how the white man keeps the brother-man down--even in a galaxy far far away. You got cracker farmboy Luke Skywalker, Nazi poster boy blond hair blue eyes. Then you got Darth Vader, blackest brother in the galaxy. Nubian god!

Now. Vader, he's a spiritual brother, down with the force and all that good shit. Then this cracker Skywalker gets his hands on a lightsaber, and the boy decides HE'S gonna run the whole fucking universe! Gets a whole KLAN of whites together and they go bust up Vader's hood, the Death Star! Now what the fuck do you call that? GENTRIFICATION!!!

They gonna drive out the black element to make the galaxy quote-unquote safe for white folks! In "Jedi," the most insulting installment, Vader's beautiful black visage is SULLIED when he pulls off his mask to reveal a feeble, crusty old white man! They trying to tell us that deep inside, the black man wants to be WHITE!!!

So what i'm really thinking is - the chickens are coming home to roost, y'all. The black man is no longer going to be playing the minstrel in the medium of sports and entertainment. They keeping it real! And going to get respect by any means necessary.

So was Vader guilty of really using a form of black face?

[Spicoli]

Well his extended post fight went well...arrest warrant issued for incident a week after this fight. Assaulted some dude at the mall and shoved/assaulted a cop .

This guy isn't too bright.

[powerpuncher]

I’m not at all surprised. When Broner is your best friend it is really telling about the kind of person you are

[Kirkland Laing]

Fantastic.

Gervonta Davis next fight: Young star reportedly planned for July 27 in Baltimore – Yuriorkis Gamboa and Ricardo Nunez potential opponents

The WBA super-featherweight champion is heading for a homecoming defence

Gervonta Davis’ second bout of 2019 is being plotted for July 27 at the Royal Farms Arena in his hometown of Baltimore, according to reports.

The two-time super-featherweight titlist knocked out late replacement opponent Hugo Ruiz within one round on February 9 and is looking to get back out again relatively quickly.

It’s claimed by BoxingScene that 37-year-old former unified champion Yuriorkis Gamboa is being ‘seriously considered’ as the opponent for Davis.

However a mandatory defence against Ricardo Nunez is also possible.



Initially, Gervonta Davis was the IBF super-featherweight champion – taking the title from Jose Pedraza in January 2017.

After coming to London to stop Liam Walsh in his first defence, ‘Tank’ then lost this belt as he came in overweight against Francisco Fonseca, who he knocked out the following day.

Last year, Gervonta received the opportunity to fight for a version of the WBA title and won it by thrashing Jesus Cuellar.

He was then out of the ring for ten months until his last bout against Ruiz and so hopes to remain active and compete at least three times in 2019.

I am not interested in his fights at this point unless he is going to be fighting a top opponent.

[Spicoli]

Feels like a guy who just lost a bigger name fight in his last start should look to make one next time out. Pole axing unknown Nunez who is stil fighting 8 rounders will satisfy only the mandatory not the fans. Gamboa brings a name but talk about an erratic less fulfilled career and oddly Davis is giving off some similar vibes.

Right. They are playing the long game but I don’t think Davis has the mentality for it. Talent fades, fundamentals stand the test of time. Kid is talented, shoot for the stars and see where you land. But no, that’s not the sport. They’ll give 3 years of crap fights before 1 we want.
