GERVONTA DAVIS SACKS CALVIN FORD JUST BEFORE LAMONT ROACH FIGHT: WHAT’S GOING ON?
In a completely unexpected twist, Gervonta “Tank” Davis has reportedly made the drastic decision to part ways with his longtime trainer Calvin Ford just days before his highly anticipated showdown with Lamont Roach. The shocking decision has sent shockwaves through the boxing world, leaving fans and pundits alike baffled as to why the sudden split occurred.

Since his professional debut, Calvin Ford has been more than just a trainer to Davis: he has been his mentor, his guide and the architect of his explosive style that has seen him win multiple world titles. Their partnership has been synonymous with success, and Ford has always been seen as a father figure to Davis.
But according to multiple inside sources, tensions have been brewing between the two men for months. Some reports suggest that Davis expressed dissatisfaction with the strategy for the Roach fight, believing it was time to move in a new direction. Others suggest that personal differences and backroom management issues contributed to the abrupt split.
The Lamont Roach fight is a pivotal moment in Gervonta Davis’ career. A loss could seriously derail his rise and put his superstar status into question. Getting rid of Calvin Ford at such a critical time is an extremely risky bet.
Davis has yet to officially announce who will take over Ford’s corner for the fight. Some speculate that Tank’s former mentor Floyd Mayweather could make a surprise appearance and offer strategic advice. Others speculate that Davis could enter the ring with a completely new team, hoping for a revival effect.
If Gervonta Davis wins his fight against Lamont Roach despite this upheaval, he will prove once again that he is one of the most formidable boxers of his generation. But if he loses, this separation from Ford could be seen as a major mistake that cost his career dearly.
Fans, for their part, are divided. Some support Tank in his desire to evolve, while others see this decision as an impulsive act that could harm his future. One thing is for sure: this fight will not only be a physical test, but also a mental test for the champion.
On February 25, all eyes will be on the ring. Did Gervonta Davis make the right choice? Only the fight will tell.
