that was not an upset oh wasn't I mean when you got a two guys with so much experience like I said before he was behind the scenes two guys with with a crazy amateur backgrounds and one guy is not being seen and another guy is being seen then we call it we call it an upset no Floyd Mayweather has clowned dvon Davis after his fight decision with Lamont Roach reportedly turned to loss known for his sharp wit and unfiltered opinions Mayweather did not hold back making headlines with his pointed marks for geront Davis who has
been vocal about his opinions on the judging and boxing this development was seen as a moment to voice his displeasure however what he might not have anticipated was Floyd Mayweather seizing the moment to mock him publicly it's just that um he was working behind the scenes and another guy was working in front of everybody then finally they had a meet up and then um an Anthony Joshua came up short but Anthony Joshua um I told him from the beginning you know I was one of the first guys to come on record I from the beginning
I told him he can come and I can teach him some pointers um because a lot of times just this is just my take the same coach you had as an amateur doesn't always make him a great professional coach because some guys are great at amateur coaching and some guys are great at professional coaching the relationship between Floyd Mayweather and gervon Davis has been tumultuous to say the least initially Mayweather play played a pivotal role in Davis's career signing him to Mayweather promotions and guiding him to stardom however as Davis's popularity and confidence grew so
did the cracks in their partnership accusations of mismanagement lack of respect and public disagreements eventually led to Davis parting ways with Mayweather promotions since their split Mayweather has not shied away from taking subtle and sometimes direct shots at Davis questioning his discipline fight choices and attitude outside the Ring Davis on his part has been equally vocal accusing Mayweather of not having his best interest at heart this latest jab seems to be part of a continuing Saga of Bad Blood between the two always speak the real whether somebody like it or not I just feel like
Anthony Joshua uh they keep going they keep going to different coach oh this coach going to work with him this coach going to work with him I told him in the in the beginning when he was undefeated you got some things you still got to tweak cuz if you don't then you may come up short Mayweather's recent statement was a direct critique of Davis's decision to leave Mayweather promotions and manage his career independently the underlying message seemed to suggest that without the right connections and backing Fighters like Davis might find themselves on the losing end
of controversial decisions social media erupted with reactions with fans divided between supporting Mayweather's business first approach and Davis's quest for Independence prominent analysts weighed in with some agreeing that Davis's recent moves have left him vulnerable in the business side of boxing While others criticized Mayweather for kicking a man when he's down mean meanwhile the New York State athletic commission has launched a review of dervon Davis's Saturday bout against Lamont Roach Jr following controversy over Davis taking a knee without being ruled for a knockdown during the ninth round of Davis's WBA lightweight title defense the champion
dropped to one knee after taking a shot from roach he then hurried to his Corner urgently requesting his face to be wiped referee Steve Willis issued a Stern warning but did not count it as a knockdown while a frustrated roach made his displeasure clear had the referee or judges who notably chose not to penalize Davis ruled a knockdown roach would have secured the victory instead of settling for a majority draw in Brooklyn such a decision would have also tarnished Davis's Flawless record gervon Davis claimed that grease from his hair was stinging his eyes but despite
the setback he expressed interest in a rematch an ambition shared by roach meanwhile the NY sack has launched a review of the fight leaving the door open for a potential change in the official result at this time the NY sack is reviewing the matter involving Saturday's matchup between Lamont Roach and javant Davis read a statement sent to multiple Publications it added during the round in question following the commission's request for the replay video there was a technical issue preventing the commission from receiving it within the allotted time for review therefore the referee's in ring decision
was relied upon and the fight continued as per the official statement the commission is dedicated to preserving the Integrity of combative Sports and is committed to working with all promotions and production teams on behalf of the athletes officials and fans to ensure technical issues do not occur in the future that prevent the delivery of ringside instant replay feeds to the commission's officials when needed a technical glitch seemingly prevented commission officials from reviewing the footage in real time delaying any decision on whether Davis should face penalties for taking a knee as the commission continues its review
it remains unclear whether any forthcoming ruling could retroactively impact the fight's outcome although the result was disappointing for roach he remains determined to secure a rematch with Davis despite stepping into the fight as a heavy Underdog he came remarkably close to pulling off a stunning upset fueling his resolve for another shot Davis has already said he's open to the rematch with the still undefeated fighter dropping a message on X stating and say no more I'm pushing for the rematch the rematch can be soon too like end of May uba president hilberto Mendoza revealed to the
ring on Sunday that he is set to push for a rematch between jont Davis and Lamont Roach after their contentious majority draw on Saturday night particularly in light of the controversy surrounding round n WBA lightweight champion Davis found himself in a peculiar moment during round nine willingly absorbing a few punches from roach before unexpectedly taking a knee according to the unified rules if a boxer's knee makes contact with the canvas after a punch regardless of whether the strike directly caused the fall it is officially ruled a knockdown additionally only the refer has the authority to
pause the action meaning Fighters cannot call for a timeout themselves another strict regulation prohibits a boxer's corner from using a towel to wipe their Fighter's face during an active round nevertheless referee Steve Willis merely warned Davis without calling a knockdown or deducting a point that decision proved pivotal on the scorecards had Willis correctly ruled at a knockdown roach would have secured a shocking Victory ranked number eight on the Rings pound-for-pound list Davis acknowledged at the post-fight press conference that he was open to a rematch but doubted it would happen right away however Mendoza holds the
power to call for an immediate sequel Mendoza said I think it's not going to be no doubt about having a rematch on this think this supersedes the public perception of boxing involved here with a huge star for the sport and we need to send a strong message out there it was a very controversial night Mendoza is expected to petition the WBA championships committee to vote on an immediate rematch roach who entered the fight as a significant underdog now holds the WBA Junior lightweight title should the committee officially sanction a rematch regulations require the bout to
occur within 120 days meanwhile Davis retains the contractual right to demand an immediate rematch due to his loss Mendoza said maybe Willis saw a competitive fight maybe he saw it wasn't a punch but how can you understand how he put the knee on the canvas however given that immediate replay is accessible in New York it's odd that it wasn't used uh I'm not sure bro uh I'm definitely not sure but hopefully we could get it before uh no it probably won't be this year is that the one you want next that's the yeah it's definitely
the one I want next but it's not going to be next what is you might see it in a minute however the WBC champion isn't pushing for a showdown with Davis just yet Instead The Undefeated 27-year-old is focused on his own challenge taking on roach Jr for a chance to claim another lightweight title Stevenson said of roach Jr via x.com comma formerly Twitter roach Jr got me ready for the Valdez fight that's also how I knew how the fight with him and tank would go Lamont the truth would love to make this fight happen boxing

want to retire LMA is still unavailable until top rank lomachenko's promoter is told otherwise so that's not an option for Davis even though he wants that fight since then WBA lightweight champion Davis has voiced his desire for a rematch with roach meanwhile with lomachenko's future still up in the air both matchups remain intriguing possibilities some believe that had the fight been scored differently roach could have emerged Victorious an outcome that would have marked the first loss of Davis's career the decision has ignited heated debates among boxing analysts and fans alike fueling calls for a rematch
adding to the discourse renowned American podcaster Joe Rogan has publicly supported the push for a second fight in a fiercely contested bout controversy erupted in the 9th round when gervon Davis unexpectedly took a knee without signaling for a timeout as the referee initiated the standard 10-second count he abruptly halted it upon noticing Davis wiping his eyes the unexpected turn of events left fans and an speculating but Davis later addressed the incident shedding light on the reason behind his actions amid the buzz from fans in the boxing world renowned American podcaster Joe Rogan has added his
voice to the growing call for a rematch a longtime Enthusiast of MMA and Combat Sports Rogan confessed that he hadn't watched Roach fight before however after witnessing his bout with Davis he's become an avid supporter describing the match as a spectacular Showdown Rogan expressed his eagerness to see the two fighters Clash again in the ring he added watching the replay of the outstanding title fight last night between javana Davis and Lamont Roach I had never seen Lamont fight before but I'm a big fan now fight was a draw but it was an amazing contest and
I really hope they run it back roach riding an impressive eight-fight unbeaten streak has been earning widespread a claim for his dominance in the ring meanwhile Davis upped the stakes before the fight even began wagering $250,000 at the weighin that he'd secure a knockout but with the match stretching the full 12 rounds Davis now finds himself on the losing end of that bet owing roach a hefty sum and adding even more tension to their intensifying rivalry the prospect of a rematch remains unclear especially since Davis had hinted at retirement before facing roach yet with mounting
pressure from fans a second Showdown could be the perfect stage for both fighters to settle unfinished business after his majority decision draw against Lamont Roach over the weekend Deron tank Davis voiced his frustration on X insisting that the official ruling didn't do him Justice he added they took the fight from me and made it a draw because I did that [ __ ] knee but I landed the most punches in the fight he didn't even hit me with a punch when I took the knee I get it though I shouldn't have done that but that
hair grease was burning my eyes interestingly dant didn't actually throw the most punches in the fight compubox stats gave Roach The Edge in that department on top of that javant caught a major break when the referee overlooked what should have been a knockdown after he took a knee had that moment been properly scored roach would have come out on top on the official scorecards few will likely sympathize with dant's account of events and if anyone has a legitimate case for being robbed of Victory it's roach however without the advantage of being the aside he gains
little from the controversy after the fight javant expressed interest in a rematch with roach to settle any lingering doubts however he made it clear that their second bout wouldn't happen immediately as he already has another fight on his schedule meanwhile Jake Paul also reacted to the jvon Davis versus Lamont Roach fight he got lucky at the draw he did a good fight though I thought he won it but man he got to he got to just create more action that's a sparring session as far as I'm concerned God damn that's not the I know the
boxing World erupted in controversy over the missed knockdown a decision that could have secured Roach The crucial Point needed for a 108 round and an improbable Victory Terrence Crawford a pound for pound fighter spearheaded such responses by igniting the conversation on social media with an Irate tiate he first wrote roach won and that should have been called a knockdown let's see what happens when the verdict was announced he continued they robed that boy and it's crazy I never seen someone take a knee and they don't count it as a knockdown must have forgot the rules
for tonight in his final say on the subject Crawford even added some of you all need to watch Floyd Mayweather versus hanado Hernandez and C Mayweather took a knee because he hurt his hand and it was called a knock down and not from a punch either Crawford wasn't alone in expressing frustration over the night's outcome as Davis retained both his unbeaten streak and the WBA lightweight World title despite his luck he hasn't been defeated yet and Davis says a sequel doesn't seem likely according to the regulations a knockdown was awarded when a knee touched the
canvas which was a major source of disagreement during the fight however it was not given out and roach was incensed that even though it seemed to be headed by Davis he should have been called tank said that the reason he had to take the knee was because he had grease in his eyes after being left perplexed roach stated that he regretted not giving his opponent his first career loss he said honestly I thought I should have won without that being counted as a knockdown look I ain't the ref I ain't and really if tank Davis
had to wipe sweat out of his eye he had to wipe sweat out of his eye he added but the rules do state if you voluntarily take a knee then that's an automatic 8 count but it is what it is I wasn't relying on that I was relying on what I was doing in there I was taking control I think I was Landing more shots more power shots and I thought I was doing my thing so I'm not really that frustrated but if that was counted as a knockdown I'd have won a majority decision Lamont
Roach stepped into the post-fight press conference after his hard-fought draw against gervon tank Davis offering a candid take on the bout he stood firm in his belief that he not only had the skills to go toe-to-toe with tank but also to defeat him outright roach expressed confidence that he had done enough to secure the victory even without the controversial ninth round knockdown that went uncalled he said going into the fight I knew I had what it takes like I said I knew I had a chin I sparred guys that was like Junior middleweights middleweights like
current Champions that was at that weight so I know I can take a punch he's Twitchy in there like I do see why he knocks people out I just knew that I can be in there and I knew that I can do better than him to win rounds win exchanges because he fighting spurts roach expressed that he honestly felt he should have won without the incident being counted as a knockdown he he acknowledged that he was not the referee and remarked that if tank needed to wipe sweat out of his eye then that was his
choice however he pointed out that the rules clearly state that voluntarily taking a knee results in an automatic 8 count despite this roach stated that he was not relying on that situation but rather on his own performance in the ring you think about what happened in the ninth round how frustrated are you that that wasn't counted as a knockdown uh man I'm not honestly I thought I I thought I should have won without that uh without that being counting a knockdown look I ain't the ref I ain't really you know what I'm saying like if
he had to wipe sweat out his eye he had to wipe sweat out his eye but the rules do state if you voluntar take a knee then that's an automatic a account but it is what it is I wasn't relying on that I was relying on what I was doing in there I think I was taking control I think I was uh Landing more shots I think I was Landing more power shots and um I thought I was doing my thing so I'm not really that frustrated about that um but if that was kind of
knockdown I would win a majority decision roach believed he was taking control Landing more shots including power shots and doing what he needed to do he added so I'm not really that frustrated about that but if that was counted a knockdown I would win the majority decision I don't know did y'all see me in the ring tell him to keep counting he started counting I was like why you stop like keep counting but I honestly don't know I don't know but I can't go back and change it roach then remarked that tank had decent power
and clarified that he would not say it was exaggerated he pointed out that he had a strong chin and suggested that tank might have felt his power as well roach believed that this was what neutralized many of Tank's shots and after taking Tank's best shot he felt confident that it was time to step up his efforts he lont this is Matt from buun boxing uh what explanation if any were you given about why that particular sequence was not properly called a knockdown I don't know did y'all see me in the ring tell him to keep
counting he he started counting I I was like I was like why you stop like keep counting but uh I don't I honestly don't know I don't know um but I can't go back and change it so Lamont seanell congrats man on fighting a great fight a lot of people agree with you that you did win the fight um just can you talk about javon's power he he got you with some good shots but you you kept staying in the center of the ring with him a lot of other Fighters don't deal with the power
as well what how do you assess his power after being in there with for 12 he got decent power he got decent power for sure uh I ain't gonna say it's exaggerated I just I told you I got a chin I ain't like I ain't going like that that's just it's just not gonna happen but um like I said I see why he knocked people out and um I just think I think he felt my power too like I think that's what negated a lot of his shots and once I took his best shot I
