Conor Benn, an unbeaten welterweight boxer, in an Instagram story expressed interest in taking on Gervonta Davis. However, because of Benn’s claim that he can knock out Tank if they ever fight, fans began to make fun of Conor on Twitter.
The last time the British boxer entered the ring was in April of last year. Although The Destroyer had Chris Eubank Jr. on the schedule for his 22nd professional boxing match last October at London’s 02 Arena. However, the welterweight’s professional boxing career was put on hold as a result of coming out positive for drugs.
Meanwhile, on April 22 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Gervonta defeated Ryan Garcia to win the biggest boxing match of his career. Tank is now aiming high and preparing to face more formidable opponents after defeating his longtime foe KingRy.

How did fans react to Conor Benn’s fight proposal to Gervonta Davis?
“He always running his mouth as if his signature win isnât against a 38 yr old Chris Algieri. Heâs fought no one, his last name is carrying him. He needs to worry about them eggs.” said Big C
Liam Gillies took a jab at The Destroyer as he mocked the welterweight boxer by saying,” You canât KO someone via Instagram. Itâs simply not a physical possibility. He could possibly beat him long distance on Words with Friends, but thatâs as close to a KO as heâd ever get against Tank.”
“Would have fancied his chances if he wasnât as inactive. Due too everything thatâs went on will he get the chance and is he guilty or not. Real shame if he was seemed too be heading in the right direction before all of the drama.” said a user.
However, another user seemed to be extremely optimistic about the fight as he said, “Benn has a lot of fire and rage in his belly. I feel if he connects with most fighters it’s lights out. Against Tank he would have to take him out quick. What I think happens? He makes fast start swings and misses and gasses himself out.”
“He’s just trying to generate drama/ sensationalism that would make people pay to see him fight Davis.” Chris Robinson said.
Prince isn’t hopeful about the fight that much as he said,” Gervonta Davis wonât move to 140. Heâs waiting for Haney to vacate so he could collect all the belts and call himself the GOAT.”
“Conor, I’m American. I agree with you .It would be a huge Mega fight his team will never do it because you will knock him out. You’re a bigger star over there than Tank over here. PPV, we’re Ryan. biggest Tank did 250 thousand he has never taken a risk.” Sonya Dumas said.
Dani Gonzalez mocked Benn as he can’t remember the last time the undefeated fighter stepped into the ring by stating, “This dude barely fights and asking for tank heâs reaching. Do anyone knows his most recent fight ?? I donât remember”
