WBA lightweight world champion Gervonta Davis (29-0, 27 KOs) criticized the heavyweight bout between Jared Anderson and Riad Merhy, which took place on the night of April 14th in the USA. In a Twitter conversation with a fan, Davis mentioned that he couldn't finish watching the fight.
- What are you watching, champ?
- A weak heavyweight... I turned it off.
- Big Baby? (Jared Anderson's nickname)
- Total crap.
Anderson won the 10-round fight against Riad Merhy by a unanimous decision. Previously, Jared himself stated that the evening turned out to be terrible.
