gervonta davis i am very impressed. possble p4p talent.

Post by jamamb »

i rewatched this guys fghts and let me tell you hes one excellent talent. power and p4p speed and athletcsm. aggrssve too when he smells blood. imo ppl are sleepng on him a bit and his ability to beat top guys.i feel forums generally are more pro eastern euro so he gets less rated.plus the floyd connecton automatcally means some ppl arent for him.

is he at 135 or 130 now?

I'm pretty sure Davis has missed weight twice now, and not by just a few ounces. 2 lbs last time, and cost him his belt. Time to move to 135.

Davis has proven nothing. Nomassiah would likely clown him but I very much doubt that GTank would quit.

Can't really tell already if he's no-more than a dangerous puncher, or a possible all-timer...

It's my problem, of course: I thought Lemieux, Bute, Kirkland (etc....) were great, but they didn't live up to it, nevertheless I had an early thing for Canelo, and he definitely confirmed my hypothesis, until now.

He's talented for sure, but he must be proven on the higher level. There's a possibility, that he will make a name for himself, but there are also marks of him being not dedicated enough with those weight issues.

He sure has talent, but he could be another Kelly Pavlik (as much as I like both): hitting hard is one thing, but Keeping Your Psychological Balance While Under-Pressure and Possessing Great Talent, is a kind of couple which seldomly marries...

Well, if he becomes at least the same successful, as Pavlik was, this will be quite an achievement.

He looks to be cut from the same cloth as Judah and Broner.
