The psychology of envy in boxing: Turki Alalshikh analyzes the outbreak of ‘Diam’s Work’ by Gervonta Davis and Crawford’s success

Turki Alashikh responded to the comments of Gervonta Davis to the media this week, telling him not to blame it. “Alalshikh sees this as a natural reaction of the tank in response to Terence Crawford bringing “Five times” What he has in his entire career of only two fights (Israil Madrimov and Canelo Álvarez). In other words, Davis is green of envy, so jealous that he can’t stand it.

Soul selling?

Earlier this week, Gervonta ridiculed the photo of boxers with Turki Alalshikh, saying: “It seemed like a devil s ***. Tank then added that the fighters seemed to have “sold their souls.”

Davis told the media that he felt that the photo boxers who worked in Turki boxing events had become a cult. They were dressed equally with arc ties and had sold their souls for money. He seems that there was something dark, sinister and diabolical about the couple.

“I don’t blame Tank Davis for anything he says, he doesn’t know me and if I put myself in his position: if he sees Crawford do in two more fights with 5 times than everything Tank did in his career. This is a natural reaction of him.

Tank Davis (30-0, 28 kos) has a much more entertaining style than Crawford and obviously produces more knockouts. It is understandable why Turki would give him the treatment of the red carpet and pay Gervonta for the treatment of the red carpet and paid Gazillions despite having a less entertaining struggle style.

Crawford Cobra

Some boxing fans feel that Crawford, 37, does not deserve such favoritism for Turki Alalshikh, since his resumption of his career is nothing special when one looks at him closely. They feel that their lack of true quality wins, their less entertaining style, and its two divisions to 168 to challenge Canelo make it unworthy of the money he is obtaining.

Terence did not have a good performance in his last fight against Israil Madrimov at 154. It was such a closed fight that Crawford’s actions fell because he was overcome and seemed average for the first time in his career.

A small segment of the United States fans likes Crawford, but many more see David Benavász as more exciting to see and deserve a fight against Canelo. However, Mexican superstar refuses to fight Benavidez, so we stay with Crawford.
