Gervonta Davis Reacts to Frank Martin’s New Training Footage with Floyd Mayweather

Gervonta Davis recently reacted to Frank Martin training with Floyd Mayweather. As anticipation builds for their upcoming bout, Errol Spence Jr. also shared his thoughts, expressing confidence in Martin’s ability to emerge victorious. Spence believes Martin is the most skilled and talented fighter Davis has ever faced, predicting that Martin would dominate from the first to the twelfth round.

Spence stated, “I feel like Frank’s the most skilled and talented fighter that Tank has ever fought. He can’t afford to take the early rounds lightly, hoping for a knockout in the later rounds. Frank is going to dominate from the first to the twelfth round and win the fight. Tank is a great fighter, but I feel like Frank will take it.”

Despite acknowledging Davis as a skilled fighter, Spence is convinced that Martin’s speed and power will overwhelm him. Davis responded to Spence’s comments with a laugh and a tweet saying, “Get your money champ.”

The exchange did not go unnoticed. Leonard Ellerbe, amidst the ongoing conflict between Mayweather and Davis, expressed his firm belief in Davis’ superiority. Ellerbe, CEO of Mayweather Promotions, confidently declared that the lightweight champion is here to stay, dismissing Spence’s claims. Spence, however, retorted, emphasizing that Davis has never faced an opponent like Martin.

Ellerbe acknowledged Martin’s talent but added that Martin has yet to face a challenge like Davis. He tweeted, “Frank is a very good fighter, but man, he’s not dominating Tank. If they think Tank is going to give rounds away, they are crazy. Every fight opponent is a different approach. One thing is for sure, Frank has never faced anything like what he’s about to see on June 15th. I can’t wait till next Saturday.”

Spence and Martin share a history as trainees under Derek James. Despite reports of a legal dispute between Spence and James, it hasn’t affected Spence’s perspective on his past stablemate. Martin has drawn inspiration from Spence and is determined to make the most of this opportunity.

Martin’s rise to main event status followed his breakout performance against Michel Rivera in 2022, where he secured a unanimous decision victory. Martin expressed, “Everything I’m working towards is bigger than me. I do it for the kids, my family, and friends.”

Despite facing criticism, Martin remains resolute. He previously sparred with Davis, and now he’s focused on inspiring young people through his actions in the ring. Martin believes he can pull off an upset, standing on the brink of a monumental triumph.

The World Boxing Council (WBC) announced that its Freedom Belt would be defended in the bout between Martin and Davis, with no sanctioning fee for the recipient. Some social media users criticized the WBC for offering the belt, viewing it as a mere participation award.

Ellerbe remains confident in Davis’ victory, asserting that Martin can’t beat him. However, fans are eager to see Davis face a worthy adversary. Despite his skepticism, Ellerbe praised Martin’s talent and dedication, recognizing his significant abilities in the boxing ring.

As the fight promotion campaign gains momentum, the anticipation for the showdown grows. Martin is determined to seize the opportunity and put everything he has into being at his best on June 15th. With a string of victories against formidable opponents, Martin is ready to make his mark in the 135-pound division. The world will be watching as he steps into the ring to face Davis in what promises to be an explosive and defining bout.
