Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that The block that Gervonta davis purchased in Baltimore yesterday has been burned down. Gervonta was committed to renovating the apartments and making them affordable living…
But despite his rising celebrity status and ever-increasing bank account, Davis has not forgotten where he came from.
This week, the 29-year-old returned to his Baltimore roots to buy a nine-house block in his old childhood neighbourhood of Sandtown-Winchester.
The boxing superstar’s GTD Development will then renovate these buildings to create affordable housing for the local community.
“The first knockdown was just [Garcia] not knowing his placement,” Davis says. “I knew that I was the smaller guy, and my coach was telling me in camp that he’s going to come up with his head up, so just shoot over the top.”
Asked about the second knockdown, Davis said he was surprised it was decisive.
“I didn’t think that body shot would end it, but I saw his facial expression and that’s what made me take it to him,” he says. “It was a good shot, for sure. I thought he was going to get up but I like to play mind games, so when he was looking at me, I was looking at him trying to tell him, ‘Get up!’. And he just shook his head, no.”
