Gervonta Davis asks for photo to be changed on Leo Santa Cruz fight poster after fans mocked the original version

Gervonta Davis launched a funny tweet on Monday, demanding that her photo be changed on one of the fight posters for her upcoming fight with Leo Santa Cruz.

PBC tweeted the image over the weekend, eliciting amusement from fans who pointed out that Gervonta looked much taller than usual.

The undefeated super-featherweight star tweeted in response, “Turn off my damn picture of that flyer… what the fuck is that ***

Fans then began posting their own funny versions of the image, making Davis more fun.

As for the fight itself, the date has now been moved back by a week – hence the new posters.

Initially, it was supposed to take place on October 24, but will now land on October 31.

Indeed, the organizers were able to secure a venue – the Alamodome in Texas – which will allow 11,500 fans to attend.

Gervonta Davis trains with Floyd Mayweather

The 25-year-old American knockout artist previously held titles at 130 pounds before struggling to gain weight and shifting to 135 pounds as a result.

However, he now chooses to come down in weight for a big fight against four division champion Santa Cruz.

The Mexican star wore bantamweight, super-bantamweight and featherweight belts, then switched to super-featherweight last year.

While he may be oversized by Davis, many still expect him to provide the toughest test of the Mayweather Promotions fighter’s career so far.
