Gervonta Davis is working with officials behind the scenes to make his purse bet with Ryan Garcia a legitimate part of the pair's pay-per-view showdown this weekend.
The lightweight duo are competing in one of the sport's biggest fights on Saturday night in Las Vegas, and this week offered to bet their fight purses during a stream with Twitch star Kai Cenat. These sorts of wagers are commonplace during fight promotion, but almost never lead to an actual 'winner-take-all' situation for a number of reasons.
However, Davis has confirmed he is keen to speak with officials involved in the event to make sure that Garcia has to live up to the wager. The pair made their 'grand arrivals' at the MGM Grand yesterday ahead of both putting their undefeated records on the line this weekend.
