Oscar De La Hoya recently spoke to FightHype about the news of Gervonta Davis becoming a free agent. 'Tank' is currently signed with Mayweather Promotions, but his contract expires soon. Discussing whether it would be easier to make the Ryan Garcia fight if 'Tank' is a free agent, De La Hoya said:
"I don't know if it will be easier. I mean, who knows? Because look, Mayweather did a phenomenal job with 'Tank' Davis. I mean, he took him to a world title, he took him to the top, pay-per-view, who knows? But yeah, pay-per-view, all that, so who knows? I mean, from promoter to promoter, that's how fights would normally get done, so whoever 'Tank' Davis' promoter is, give me a call."
Oscar De La Hoya also said he would only sign 'Tank' if the boxer became a free agent following his split with Mayweather Promotions. Davis has not confirmed whether he will be parting ways with Floyd Mayweather and his promotional agency. However, 'Money' Mayweather has not denied the rumors either, so it will be interesting to see what Gervonta Davis decides to do next.
