Unbeaten Boxer Gervonta Davis Gets Plenty of Feedback After Expressing Interest in UFC Fight

If Gervonta Davis ever makes good on his claim that he would like to compete in the Ultimate Fighting Championship, he would have no shortage of willing suitors for his Octagon debut. Over the weekend the unbeaten Floyd Mayweather protégé expressed an interest in the UFC via Twitter. Davis owns a 19-0 record as a professional boxer, including 18 triumphs via knockout or technical knockout. He is scheduled to face Jesus Cuellar for the vacant WBA Super Featherweight world title on April 21 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.
