Conor Benn Calls Out Gervonta Davis: DON’T EVER @ ME EVER AGAIN!
Conor Benn has voiced his frustration after learning that Gervonta Davis declined an offer from Matchroom to face him in the ring. Promoter Eddie Hearn, speaking to Pro Boxing Fans during a press event in Edinburgh, revealed that Davis had turned down the opportunity to move up in weight and take on Benn.
Davis initially expressed interest in fighting Benn following the Englishman’s victory over Peter Dobson on February 3 in Las Vegas. However, despite the potential matchup, Davis opted not to pursue the opportunity, leaving Benn disappointed.
Hearn disclosed that there are several potential opponents being considered for Benn's upcoming fights, with negotiations progressing to the contractual stage. While Hearn did not reveal the names of these potential opponents, former two-weight world champion Danny Garcia has shown interest in facing Benn.
Benn, who has been dealing with ongoing anti-doping issues, is eager to return to the UK for his next fight. However, his future remains uncertain pending discussions with the British Boxing Board of Control regarding his anti-doping case.
In response to Hearn's revelation about Davis rejecting the fight offer, Benn took to social media to express his discontent, urging Davis not to contact him in the future.
Despite the setback, Hearn remains optimistic about resolving Benn's issues and arranging a significant fight for him in the UK in the near future.
