Shakur accused Gervonta Davis of avoiding top competition.
In an interview, Shakur Stevenson challenged Gervonta Davis, suggesting that he used weight statements against his opponents and faced “talented fighters” to make himself look better than him.
WBC lightweight champion Stevenson (22-0, 10 KOs) was furious when Gervonta was told he wasn’t impressed with his record and asked what he had done in his career to want to fight him. Tank shuts down any possibility of a fight with Shakur by counting him out. Unworthy to meet the king. is true. Shakur is totally unfit to be in his presence.
In the year Shakur’s promoter Eddie Hearn has been discussing the idea of fighting Tank Davis in 2025. Hearn has mapped out 2025 for the Newark, New Jersey native, who says he’ll be fighting these three:
- Floyd Schofield
- William Zepeda
- Gervonta Davis
Now, Shakur is saying he had a fight with Tank Davis without saying anything. Tank asked, ‘What is this guy talking about?’

“He doesn’t seem real. No disrespect to him, but I’m a real person. “I’m not going to go out there and say that Tank isn’t a good fighter,” Shakur Stevenson said. Boxing newsGervonta Davis responded when he was told he wasn’t surprised by his record and shut down the two rumors that it wasn’t worth it to fight Shakur.
“In the same way when he asks what have I done for the sport of boxing, I think he will look in the mirror and ask the same question because what have you done?” Shakur continued about Tank Davis. “Even the guys you took out were all in the weight class. It looks good to the public and the uninitiated, but I am a fighter. I know what’s going on. I know what you are doing.
“You’re taking some really talented fighters and putting them in the ring with you and making them look like they’re on his level, but they’re not. Until he fights a top-level fighter, I don’t want to hear anything from him,” Shakur said.
What Gervonta says is 100% true. Who did Shakur fight during his career? No one is good. He beat washed-up fighters at 130, held three paper titles against weaker opponents and looked awful after moving to 135. During his fight with Edwin De Los Santos, he left the arena and the fans fled. He led the way in his last fight against weak puncher Artem Harutyunyan in his hometown of Newark last July.
“Fight the man I fought!”
“He[Tank]made it seem like he couldn’t get a lot of people in the ring. Why didn’t he try to find Edwin de los Santos? Why not fight what you want? Fight the guy I fought because you want to talk bad about me. And you talked about my performance. So, put me out of business,” Shakur said.
Tank fighting Edwin de los Santos doesn’t do anything for him and his career because that guy hasn’t fought in 14 months. He would end up losing to Stevenson, and when Gervonta fought him in August or September, he would be inactive for 21 months.
In the year On November 16, 2023, Shakur fell from his exposed stock as a chicken runner at De Los Santos. Fighting a rematch with him or looking bold in her next fight against light-hitting Arten Harutyunyan did nothing to change things. .
