Tim Bradley says Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis’ new look is a sign he “doesn’t care what people think about him”. Bradley says Tank looks “really amazing”which he sees as a positive because he feels he knows who he is now.
The leaked image of WBA lightweight champion Tenka (30-0, 28 KOs) showed him lying on a chair with his long hair straightened, perhaps with pomade, and what appeared to be eye make-up. It is unclear whether it is an eyeshadow or a mascara.
“Fierce” and undisturbed
He thinks this bodes poorly for Gervonta’s next opponent, Lamont Roach, as it will come to him when they fight on March 1st at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. The team doesn’t say how Tank’s new nonchalant attitude about his physical appearance is related to taking it out on Roach because it’s not like he was badmouthing him. If anything, he seems grateful for the payoff.
The power of wealth
Tank is rich, and like many rich people, they don’t care what people think of them. They no longer live in the real world because of their wealth. When you have the mega-wealth that Tank Davis possesses, it’s freedom from having to worry about the judgment of others.
“He had that picture leaked and he looked really dashing (feminine) and he doesn’t give *** away.” I’m trying to tell you. “My man is on a new level,” said Tim Bradley social mediareacting to a leaked image of WBA lightweight champion Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis showing off his new haircut and dress look.
“We are at a new level. I’m on a new level.’ Yes, my boyfriend (Tank) is on a new level because he knows who he is. There is power in knowing who you are. Most people don’t know who they are. They think they are, but they don’t really know who they are.
“It takes a while to figure it out.” We are constantly evolving as humans. We are constantly evolving, but now he knows. Tank knows now. That’s why he doesn’t care. Having that power and not giving up. The tank has that superpower,” Bradley said of Gervonta’s new look.

Since then, there have been no photos of Tank’s new hairstyle and glasses. It’s hard to tell if the new look is a sign of Davis’ development or just the mood of the day. If we see him always looking like this, we can conclude that he is “evolving”, as Bradley says.
“He just doesn’t bother.” A tank will be a tank. “A tank is going to do what a tank is going to do,” Bradley said. “Whether it looks ravishing or nothe knows who he is. There is a superpower in that. Guess who he’s going to take it to? He’ll take care of it on Lamont Roach.
“I feel sorry for Roach. He’s a good fighter, but I’m telling you. This tank here is different. That’s another man. Did you see the weight too? The guy (Gervonta) can fight tomorrow. The guy can fight today. The guy can fight whenever.
“A few more weeks. The fight is still a few months away. I say you’re locked in,” Bradley said.
I don’t see how Tank will treat Roach any differently now than he did when the fight was signed. Bradley really delivers with his attitudes. Struggle is a mismatch and always has been.
The weight of the tank is the real thing. He looks to be close to the 135-pound mark now, which means he can easily drop down to 130 or 126 to go up against the top guys in those divisions. Naoya Inoue is the fighter fans want to see fight Tanks, and that matchup could happen.
