The personality of gervonta davis has really began to blossom these past few years as he has become more outspoken on social media
A Bengal Tiger on social media talking about all the fights he would make happen. A house cat when it comes time to actually make those fights.
youre talking about a man who has defeated Garcia AND Romero AND Cruz AND Martin AND Barrios. these are all champions/former champions involved in some of the biggest boxing PPVs of this era.

agREED… The “Clap Back Thursday” Version of Dela is AUTHENTIC and Infinitely More Likable Than the Manufactured “Golden Boy” Image He Projected. REED
My guess is that he was genuinely a better person when he was older, but still had a lot more of that ugly side to him than he let off.
