    He is no bum

    Talented boxer who is just frustrating to fans due to him boxing hardly anyone of note

    Works for him but as a fan I have little interest in what he does because it's just not noteworthy

    He looked like a bum against Mario Barrios and Roach.

    I'm no fan of his but he beat Barrios well
    Bums don't score KO's often

    Oh come on he's no bum, what he is ,,is a modern fighter ,who takes little to no risk once he's acquired a name.

    I don't think Davis is a bum. Had an off night vs an obviously prepared and focused Lamont Roach. Happens to em all

    Ridiculous post most fighters have an off day every now and again,If Gevonta is a bum what does that make 80% of fighters?

    Your post just about sums up a of what is wrong with this forum.A fighter has a good win and he is suddenly better than anyone in the past.On the other hand one bad performance and he is a bum,both knee jerk reactions.Btw who is comparing him to Duran and how is that relevant to your original post?

    That's right. I'd like to take a poll of so called fans that call boxers bums. See how many of them donate to charities that help old retire fighters with the health issues they developed from a career pleasing the fans by fighting ony tough fights.

    I've never been that keen on Tank, but he's definitely not a bum.

    Fury lost to an mma guy making his debut = bum
    Usyk was in a seriously competitive fight with a bum who lost to an mma guy = level up from a bum

    It is easy to discredit a fighter on one bad night
