Gervonta Davis picks a side in Errol Spence vs Tim Tszyu fight

Gervonta Davis has weighed in on the 160lb clash between Errol Spence Jr and Tim Tszyu this weekend.

The two former world champions will square off at Sydney’s Afterpay Arena, Australia, where it was originally agreed that they would collide at a catchweight of 158lbs.

In a late turn of events, Spence requested an additional 2lbs – which was subsequently granted – as he returns to action for the first time in three years.

Yet despite his last outing resulting in a ninth-round stoppage defeat to Terence Crawford, the 36-year-old has been made a slight favourite against Tszyu.

This is also Spence’s first meaningful assignment above 147lbs, where he remained unbeaten before losing his WBC, IBF and WBA titles to Crawford.

Tszyu, meanwhile, has lost three of his last six fights after encountering the ferocious fists of Sebastian Fundora and Bakhram Murtazaliev, who scored stoppages over the Australian in 2024 and 2025, respectively

But while he hopes to return to world level at 154lbs, the 31-year-old first looks to claim his most significant victory since outpointing Brian Mendoza in 2023.

One man pledging his support for Spence, however, is former world champion ‘Tank’ Davis, who shared his thoughts via social media on Wednesday.

“Bring it home EJ!”

Despite his three years of inactivity, many suspect that Spence is far superior from a technical perspective.

Tszyu, on the other hand, could take advantage of the American’s lack of momentum by setting a hellacious pace, perhaps exposing any signs of deterioration with his relentless pressure and consistent attacks.
