Terence Crawford has named the opponent he would \u201clove\u201d to see Gervonta Davis face upon his expected return to the sport.<\/p>\n
The former world champion has not fought since March 2025, when many believed he was fortunate to come away with a draw against Lamont Roach.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, \u2018Tank\u2019 retained his WBA lightweight title and was set to face Roach in an immediate rematch, only to then negotiate an exhibition match with Jake Paul.<\/p>\n
Rather than having a move around with the YouTuber-turned-boxer, though, Davis was forced to face allegations of domestic violence from his ex-partner, Courtney Rossel.<\/p>\n
Since then, the 31-year-old has been named \u2018champion in recess\u2019 by the WBA<\/a>, who have been urged by No.1 contender Floyd Schofield to either order their fight or present him with a vacant title opportunity.<\/p>\n Davis, however, has expressed more of an interest in rematching Isaac \u2018Pitbull\u2019 Cruz at 140lbs<\/a>, despite having outpointed the Mexican in 2021.<\/p>\n Crawford, meanwhile, has little desire to see \u2018Tank\u2019 face Schofield or Cruz, but would happily sit down and watch him collide with Shakur Stevenson.<\/p>\n
