Devin Haney Rejects Gervonta Davis Fight After Alleged 70‑30 Split Offer

Devin Haney announced on X that he is walking away from a potential lightweight showdown with Gervonta Davis, citing an alleged 70‑30 revenue split offered by Davis’s camp. The claim emerged during a public exchange with Davis’s associate “Gmoney,” who referenced a conversation with promoter Al Haymon. Haney posted the alleged split details before deleting the messages; neither Davis’s team nor Haymon has confirmed the terms. The dispute effectively ends talks for what was expected to be a marquee bout, leaving a notable gap in the division’s upcoming fight calendar.

The fallout highlights the increasingly transparent nature of high‑stakes boxing negotiations on social media and may prompt both fighters to pursue other opponents as the lightweight division looks for a new headline clash.
