Benn: "Here he is the woman beating umpa lumpa"

Welterweight (66.7 kg) British boxer Conor Benn (23-0, 14 KOs) once again spoke out against WBA lightweight (61.2 kg) champion Gervonta Davis (29-0, 27 KOs). This came after Gervonta called Benn's promoter Eddie Hearn a "snake in a suit."

"Here he is the woman beating umpa lumpa. You didn’t even want to negotiate so if and when do I’ve told you I’ll meet you in the middle of the ring and we’ll have it you prick," Benn wrote on his Twitter page.

Earlier, Gervonta had said:

"He's a snake in a suit. Conor Benn tested positive and he was still gonna let him fight. He's a snake bro, he's bad for business. Yes [I'd fight Benn] if he's off that s***. No [not on a Hearn show] because you can't trust Hearn. Snake in a suit."

This isn't the first conflict between Gervonta and Benn. They even agreed on a fight, but everything was canceled. Davis will ultimately face Frank Martin on June 15.
