American WBA World lightweight champion Gervonta Davis (27-0, 25 KOs) claims to have received an offer from promoter Eddie Hearn (Matchroom Boxing) – 10 million USD and a percentage of pay-per-view sales for the fight with popular compatriot Ryan Garcia (23-0, 19 KOs).
As is most often the case with Davis, he even posted a screenshot of the proposal at first, and then deleted everything (including his answer).
On the screen, Hearn invites the fighter to “meet and discuss everything face to face” and, just in case, clarifies that he is referring to Gervonte, since he “has repeatedly stated that he is now a free agent.”

Gervonta’s response to Hearn will definitely not please: “Fuck your ass with your offer. Why did you keep insisting on a fight after you found out that your fighter was caught using illegal drugs? Dude, you got a fucking offer. For the fight with Ryan, I’ll get more than what you’re offering.”

Earlier, the fight between Davis and Garcia was even officially announced. But at the same time, both will have intermediate battles to the best of their ability. Gervonta has a very dangerous opponent – he can even upset. In response, Ryan Garcia also announced the fight in January.
