"Tank always throws shots at him"- Gervonta Davis gets thrashed for 'fake beef' with Floyd Mayweather
Gervonta Davis' feud with Floyd Mayweather seems to have reignited once again.
Davis recently posted a viral edited photo of Mayweather in Russia with shorts on. He quickly deleted the post, but not before netizens got hold of the evidence. Michael Benson took a screenshot of the post and uploaded it to Twitter. Fans were not very impressed with 'Tank's' actions.
Take a look at the post by Benson:

This is not the first time Davis has poked fun at Mayweather. The pair have had their share of ups and downs, with the most recent coming before his fight against Rolly Romero.
Gervonta Davis expressed his frustrations at being signed to Mayweather Promotions and said he would leave after the 'Rolly' fight. Immediately after the fight, however, the pair reconciled and 'Tank' stayed with the company.
Floyd Mayweather took a young Gervonta Davis under his wing to teach him the ways of the boxing world and shape him into a world champion. 'Tank' was supposed to be the next Mayweather and even trained at the unbeaten boxer's gyms in Las Vegas.
Ever since 'Tank' became a PPV star of his own, he has expressed his intention to part ways with 'Money' a number of times.
