Gervonta Davis seemed very tired at the public workout before his fight with Lamont Roach.
Davis is set to defend his WBA lightweight title at the Barclays Center in New York against Roach this weekend.
The boxing star didn’t seem too happy to be at the midday media event.
Looking exhausted, Davis rubbed his eyes and stretched, wearing a pink and grey tracksuit.
He didn’t really work out, and fans on social media noticed, with one saying Gervonta Davis looked like he just woke up for his media workout.
Another person commented that Davis looked like he had just pressed the snooze button five minutes before showing up.
Someone else also said he looked like he just woke up.
Despite not working out, Davis mentioned to fans that he plans to have three fights this year.
He stated that Roach is going to be surprised in their fight, saying that Roach is trying to psych himself up, but skill is what matters most, and the more skilled fighter will win.
Davis described knocking someone out as feeling like hitting a home run in baseball, especially when you hit the sweet spot.
He reiterated his goal to fight more this year, aiming for three fights, starting with Roach and then planning the rest.
Davis promised an exciting fight, saying he is sharp, fast, and explosive, and that Roach is also sharp. He believes it will be a great fight for the fans this Saturday night.
Roach, aged 29, did train at Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn and said he is ready to go hard because the stakes are high. He has trained to be in the best possible physical and mental condition.
