"Now this is comedy": Internet in splits as random man asks Gervonta Davis in the street to "run a fade"

Gervonta “Tank” Davis has been the talk of the town ever since his fight against Lamont “The Reaper” Roach on March 1st, where he retained his WBA Lightweight World Champion title. Fans have since been wondering what the champ has been up to and who he might fight next - and it looks like they just got a glimpse of the fighter going about his daily life.

A video has recently gone viral featuring a man’s POV as he runs up to Davis and two of his friends on the street, asking him to “run a fade” - which means to fight or knock someone out. Neither Davis nor his friends reacted to the person filming, leaving fans quite amused and calling the man lucky that Davis didn’t swing.

Hilarious Internet Reactions

Netizens were left in splits by the viral video and took to the internet to share their hilarious reactions.

"Now this is comedy!!" a user wrote.

Now that’s comedy, or at least that’s what this user thinks!

"How are people getting these pov shots, what camera is that?" wondered another.

While everyone is focused on the tension the random man tried to create with the professional boxer, this user is hilariously fixated on which camera he might be using, considering how good the POV shot looks. It seems the man may have awakened the filmmaker inside this user!

The man sure dodged not one, not two, but three bullets there. Good thing Davis and his friends didn’t lose their temper.

"Challenging a pro boxer with a 93% KO percentage to a street fight is top 3 dumbest things you can do." a user said.

"Ever since he got that “L” EVERYONE GOING AT HIM 😂," commented another.

"Looked at him like the goofy he is." said another.

This user seems to have a point - ever since Lamont Roach managed to fight out a majority draw with Gervonta Davis, people seem to be coming at the champ more than ever. Hope they know what they’re getting into!

Looks like the man making the video, trying to provoke Gervonta Davis into a fight, saved himself, thanks to the fighter not reacting. But now that the video has gone viral, fans have just one burning question - when will the rematch between Gervonta Davis and Lamont Roach happen to decide the clear winner?
