Turki Alashikh responded to Gervonta Davis’ biting remarks to the media this week, telling him that he doesn’t “blame” him. Alalshikh views this as a pure response from Tank in response to Terence Crawford bringing in “5 instances” what he has in his whole profession from simply two fights [Israil Madrimov and Canelo Alvarez]. In different phrases, Davis is resentful, so jealous he can’t stand it.
Soul Promoting?
Earlier this week, Gervonta ridiculed the photograph of boxers with Turki Alalshikh, saying: “appeared like some satan s***. Tank then added that the fighters appeared like they’d “bought their souls.”
Davis informed the media that he felt the boxers within the photograph engaged on Turki’s boxing occasions had develop into cult-like. They had been dressed alike with bow ties and had bought their souls for cash. He made it sound like there was one thing darkish, sinister, and devilish concerning the pairing.
“I don’t blame Tank Davis for something that he says, he doesn’t know me and If i put myself in his place: if he sees Crawford making in two fights extra with 5 instances than all what Tank made in his profession. This can be a pure response from him.

Tank Davis (30-0, 28 KOs) has a much more entertaining model than Crawford and, clearly, produces extra knockouts. It’s comprehensible why Gervonta can be bitter about Terence being given the pink carpet remedy by Turki and paid gazillions regardless of having a much less entertaining combating model.
Crawford Cashes In
Some boxing followers really feel that Crawford, 37, doesn’t deserve such favoritism by Turki Alalshikh, as his profession resume is nothing particular when one seems at it intently. They really feel that his lack of true high quality wins, his less-than-entertaining combating model, and his transferring up two divisions to 168 to problem Canelo make him unworthy of the cash he’s getting.
Terence didn’t carry out nicely in his final combat in opposition to Israil Madrimov at 154. It was such an in depth combat that Crawford’s inventory dropped as a result of he was out-punched and made to look common for the primary time in his profession.
A small phase of U.S. followers likes Crawford, however many extra view David Benavidez as extra thrilling to look at and deserving of a combat in opposition to Canelo. Nonetheless, the Mexican famous person refuses to combat Benavidez, so we’re left with Crawford.
