Gervonta “Tank” Davis addressed fans angrily at a press conference ahead of his November 14 bout with Jake Paul.
He dismissed criticism for skipping the rematch with Lamont Roach, Jr., claiming he “doesn’t care” what fans think.
Davis also said fans “want to see him lose” and often discuss his personal life.
Tank Urges Fans to “Sit Back”
Davis told fans to enjoy the sport and stop judging his fight choices.
He criticized fans for switching loyalties after one bad performance or controversial decision.
“Somebody can have a bad day, and y’all switch. Sit back and be fans,” he said.
Cash-Grabs vs Career Fights
Critics argue Davis should have faced Roach first to secure meaningful victories before exhibition bouts.
Davis compared fan reactions to Floyd Mayweather, noting love often turns to hate over time.
Unlike Mayweather, Davis has unfinished business in the ring, and the Paul fight raises criticism about prioritizing money.
