A recent bombshell from the boxing world has everyone talking. Gervonta Davis, the WBA lightweight champion, has hinted he might retire in 2025, citing his desire to spend more time with his family and make enough money to exit the sport. But not everyone is convinced. Devin Haney, another big name in boxing, thinks Davis still has plenty of fights left in him.

Haney wasn't impressed when he first heard the news. "He's retiring? " he asked, puzzled, during a media workout in London. "Naah, he's not retiring, " Haney stated confidently. He believes Davis has many major fights ahead and isn't ready to call it quits. "A lot of unfinished business, " Haney added.

Many fans and experts echo Haney's thoughts. Floyd Schofield Sr. , father of upcoming boxer Floyd Schofield Jr. , even suggested Davis is ducking his son. Davis allegedly said he wouldn't step into the ring with the younger Schofield. The elder Schofield thinks Davis's retirement is a ploy to avoid this fight.

Haney's perspective makes sense. With Davis moving up to 140 pounds, he has a chance to become an undisputed champion. Facing tough opponents like Shakur Stevenson and Vasiliy Lomachenko could boost his status and prove he's not just choosing easy fights.

The boxing world is abuzz, and Davis might aim for a substantial payday before retiring. Whether he sticks to his retirement plan remains to be seen. For now, fans are left to ponder if Davis is serious or if there's more to the story.
