When it comes to casual boxing fans, not many fighters are more known than Gervonta Davis. “Tank” developed a strong reputation due to his unbeatable nature, knocking out opponents left and right no matter their talents. His confident personality may have rubbed some people the wrong way, but he always backed up his talking.
As Davis reached 30 years old, it seemed like he was maturing. He frequently spoke about fatherhood and appeared to have a different glint in his eye, but the legal issues continued to mount despite his on-air persona changing.
