Regis Prograis Says Gervonta Davis Won’t Carry Knockout Power at 140 Lbs: ‘I Think I F*** Him Up’

Gervonta Davis is one of boxing’s most top-notch young stars. In a brief span of time, Davis has stormed to the peak of the sport, thus creating a legacy of his own. However, he still has a vast career lying ahead of him, and it seems he doesn’t wish to budge an inch from achieving greatness.

‘Tank’ has now made colossal plans of a move-up to the super-lightweight division, wherein he wishes to make a mark.

But his foe, Regis Prograis, isn’t quite impressed by Davis‘s move-up. Recently, while speaking to Fight Hype, he asserted, “I think I f**k him up. I think if they make weight less for a reason, you know I think, don’t get me wrong, ‘Tank’ is good, he hits hard and stuff like that but I don’t feel like he’s going to carry that.

Prograis continued, “I don’t feel like he can carry that punching power to 140, and then have a bunch of resistance on top.”

‘Tank’ has solidified his spot in every division he’s stepped up. In his last fight, he overpowered Leo Santa Cruz by knocking him out in round 6 of the fight.

With every fight, the Maryland native has showcased his true class and remained on top among all the young champs of boxing.
