Gervonta Davis had no intention of facing Conor Benn
Speaking to Pro Boxing Fans, Hearn confirmed he’s moving in another direction for Benn after Davis failed to respond to a direct message offer.
“No, not yet [Davis has not responded]. We’ll see where that goes,” Hearn told the outlet. “There’s a lot of movement on Conor Benn.
“There are probably five fights at the moment for Conor Benn. I’m not going to go into them. They are approaching the contractual stage.”
Hearn held court about whether those bouts would be UK-based due to Benn’s current situation with the British Boxing Board of Control.
