Diving straight into the heart of the matter, Conor Benn made headlines with a provocative statement aimed directly at Gervonta Davis. While speaking to reporters inquiring about the substantial eight-figure offer extended to Davis by Eddie Hearn, they sought any recent updates on the matter.

Conor Benn said, revealing the crux of their contention: “Listen, I agree to fight anyone. You know me ain’t, my concern you know. If 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, mil(ion) ain’t enough, then stop hying up on Twitter. Do you know what I mean. Stay quiet. Stay at your house with your little tag on your ankle, with your house arrest instead of piping up on Twitter.” This reply lays bare not just the financial magnitude of the offer but also the personal challenge embedded within.

Furthermore, the exchange between Benn and Davis has been building for some time, marked by a series of callouts and responses that have captivated boxing fans worldwide. Initially, Davis expressed his desire to face Benn after his victory over Peter Dobson, signaling his readiness to escalate their rivalry from verbal spats to a physical showdown in the ring.

Consequently, Eddie Hearn, acting on behalf of Benn, took the negotiation public, presenting an offer that could not only significantly bolster Davis’ career earnings but also potentially set the stage for one of the most anticipated fights in recent memory.

I want to talk privately. I want to make the fight.” Hearn’s strategy underscores the complexities and the excitement of negotiating a high-profile fight, signaling both parties’ eagerness to turn speculation into reality.
