Ryan Garcia vs. Gervonta Davis: Oscar De La Hoya Offers to Pay 'Tank Davis' Millions to Fight 'King Ry'
Oscar De La Hoya is ready to make Gervonta "Tank" Davis richer, but he has to meet his condition of fighting undefeated boxing champion Ryan "King Ry" Garcia.
De La Hoya told TMZ Sports that he was ready to give Davis the biggest check of his career if he agreed to a boxing match with Garcia.
"Tank, I know you had your last fight with Floyd Mayweather, and I respect Floyd Mayweather, and think he did a tremendous job with your career. But, I'm ready to offer you a multi, multi, multi, multi million-dollar offer to fight Ryan Garcia," De La Hoya said.
De La Hoya's interview with the outlet came after Davis' contract with his friend and promoter Floyd Mayweather reportedly expired.
However, according to Bleacher Report, De La Hoya does not make the play to sign Davis at his promotions flat out but instead promotes the event as a "massive fight."
"Let's make this fight happen. Everybody makes a shitload of money, and we give the fight fans what they want to see," De La Hoya noted.
Oscar De La Hoya also pointed out that he is also ready to split the TV and other revenue with Davis' partners in an effort to book the boxing match.
