Floyd Mayweather Jr. has once again stirred the pot with his former protégé Gervonta “Tank” Davis. The relationship between the two boxing stars has been strained, with Davis leaving Mayweather’s promotional company and accusing him of being a “bitter” and “fraud” businessman.
In the latest chapter of their ongoing feud, Mayweather has released a six-year-old sparring video between Davis and Devin Haney through FightHype. The infamous ‘doghouse rules’ session, which has only been seen in snippets before, now shows the full 20-minute fight online for fans to witness.
The video depicts a 16-year-old Haney holding his own against Davis across six rounds. While Davis started strong, Haney gained momentum as the session progressed, showcasing his resilience and skills against the more experienced Davis.
Mayweather’s decision to release the full sparring footage has sparked speculation about a potential future bout between Davis and Haney. Haney recently suffered his first professional loss against Ryan Garcia, but that result could be overturned due to Garcia’s failed drug test.
If a Davis vs. Haney fight were to materialize, it would undoubtedly be a highly anticipated matchup. Both fighters possess exceptional talent and skillsets, and the sparring footage has only fueled the interest in seeing them clash in an official bout.
While Mayweather’s motivations for leaking the video remain unclear, it has certainly reignited the buzz around a potential showdown between two of boxing’s rising stars. Fans are eager to witness how a grown-up Haney would fare against a focused Davis, and the sparring footage has whetted their appetite for a proper fight.
As the boxing world continues to speculate and debate, one thing is certain: the rivalry between Mayweather and Davis shows no signs of slowing down, and their ongoing feud is sure to provide more drama and intrigue in the months to come.
