Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis has deactivated his X and Instagram accounts a day after Keyshawn Davis’ impressive blowout win over Gustavo Lemos. When fans click on Tank Davis’ X account, it reads, “This Account Doesn’t Exist.” Moreover, all Tank’s posts are gone on his Instagram account.
Fans Believe that Keyshawn’s call out of Tank inside the ring and during interviews has resulted in a firestorm of pressure being exerted on the Baltimore native to defend his WBA lightweight title against him next.
Is Gervonta Trying to Escape Pressure?
It’s not going to help Tank Davis to bury his head in the sand like an Ostrich to avoid the fans and Keyshawn. He’s going to have to come out of hiding sooner or later and face them because he can’t escape this kind of pressure by turning off his social media accounts.
Tank might as well get it over with and fight Keyshawn now because he’s only going to get better, and he’ll get older. It’s better to fight Keyshawn now while he’s still developing than in three to five years from now. Unlike Vasily Lomachenko, Tank can’t age ‘The Businessman’ Keyshawn.
The timing of Tank deactivating his X and Instagram accounts is too suspicious not to believe that this was done in reaction to Keyshawn’s second-round knockout of Lemos (29-2, 19 KOs) last Friday night at the Scope Arena in Norfolk, Virginia.
Immediately after the fight, Keyshawn (12-0, 8 KOs) called out Tank Davis inside the ring when being interviewed by ESPN, saying, “Hey, Gervonta, knock-knock.”
On social media, many fans are pushing for Tank Davis to fight the 25-year-old Keyshawn. They feel that he’s done enough to deserve a world title shot against him after his wins over these fighters:
– Gustavo Lemos
– Miguel Madueno
– Jose Pedraza
– Nahir Albright
Granted, one would still like to see Keyshawn try and avenge his four losses to Cuba’s Andy Cruz, but that guy is like the third rail for the Virginia native. You can’t blame Keyshawn for not wanting to fight Cruz because that guy has already shown he’s too good for him. Keyshawn has still done enough with his four recent wins to deserve a title shot against Tank Davis.
