Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis has finally responded to the call-out made by newly-crowned lightweight champion Keyshawn Davis.
‘The Businessman’ defeated Ukrainian Denys Berinchyk on February 14 to capture the WBO lightweight world title and pick up the first belt of his promising career in just his 14th bout.
The 25-year-old from Norfolk, Virginia recently called out ‘Tank’ as he targets a unification showdown with the reigning WBA lightweight champion.

Ahead of what could be one of the most exciting lightweight clashes, ‘Tank’ has now sent his response to ‘The Businessman’.
In a clip on X, ‘Tank’ was tasked with summing up his chances of defeating a number of potential opponents, including one against WBO champion Davis and promised to make it:
“Super easy work.”
‘Tank’ Davis returns to the ring on March 1 as he faces Lamont Roach Jr in a defence of his WBA lightweight title at the Barclays Center in New York City. Much to the dismay of fans around the world, the 30-year-old’s bout against Roach could be one of the last remaining ones he has in his impressive career, after revealing plans to walk away from boxing at the end of 2025.
The Baltimore native has also been persistently linked with WBC lightweight champion Shakur Stevenson, who returned to the ring himself on February 22 to stop last minute opponent Josh Padley after Floyd Schofield was forced to withdraw from the contest due to illness.
