Is Gervonta Davis Better Than Terence Crawford? Floyd Mayweather Dragged In to Argue a Point

There is no doubt that Gervonta Davis is a genius in the ring and that his style merits close reading. However, are we in a position to declare that the boxer from Baltimore has surpassed Terence Crawford as far as performance in the ring is concerned? Well, whether or not you correspond to artist-cum-commentator ShowBizz the Adult’s opinion, linking ‘Tank’ to Floyd Mayweather, he has greatly certified to certain characteristics of Davis he feels exceed ‘Bud’. What are those?

As per ShowBizz the Adult, Davis has the capacity for everything Terence Crawford has displayed in his fights. To elucidate his statement, he referred to Gervonta Davis knocking out Rolly Romero in 2022. Near the end of the sixth round, having somewhat landed a right hook, overconfident Romero decided to push Davis against the ropes. But, with his right leg on the outside, ‘Tank’ caught Romero in a square stance with his left hand while angling out.

So, ShowBizz the Adult said, “Tank’s a better aggressive fighter than Crawford. He has everything Crawford has. He can box a fighter coming after him.” Then, he alluded to Davis vs. Leo Santa Cruz. This time Davis closed in on the distance. Having pushed Santa Cruz against the ropes, Davis let the former throw his right hand while ‘Tank’ adjusted himself for a left uppercut. Soon, in the blink of an eye, the uppercut landed and Cruz was floored.

On that note, ShowBizz added, “He can go after you and he can just box him. He knocks everybody out just like Crawford.” But there is something better! “Except for I think Gervonta’s chin is slightly better. When Terence Crawford goes out there, he gon’ beat you athletic but there’s a certain poise that Gervonta has that I’m like super special,” continued ShowBizz.

“And he has that Floyd Mayweather poise. Where he cannot do much but he’s beating you [mentally]. Gervonta Tank Davis approaches the fight better than anyone in the world,” he confidently concluded. In this context, it is worth mentioning that, in the past, Davis showed interest in fighting ‘Bud.’

Gervonta Davis wanted to hand down ‘Bud’ same fate suffered by Rolly and Santa Cruz

Last year, Gervonta Davis had casually mentioned that if he fought Terence Crawford at 147 lbs, he would hand ‘Bud’ down the same fate he passed to Rolly and Santa Cruz i.e. put him “to sleep” in “round six.” Later, in his response, Crawford said there was no way Davis was moving up to 147 lbs. However, ‘Bud’ did not entirely kill the prospect of a potential fight! “I’d stay at 147 lbs for him; that’s a big money fight,” he told The Breakfast Club.

“But nobody’s going give me credit. Tank’s like 5’5,” he’s a little guy,” Crawford had bemoaned. At this, while fans were extremely curious, Davis clarified that he was only joking and did not intend to actually face ‘Bud.’ With that said, do you think concur with ShowBizz on Gervonta Davis being better than Crawford?
