Actually he has separated himself from Floyd and was open about wanting out his TMT contract. He doesn't even train at Floyd's gym any longer. If Gervonta and TJ were both walking down the street alone, more people around the world, would recognize Gervonta and know who he is, over TJ. If going by the ratings, Boxing is doing better numbers overall, then MMA is.. internationally too. Gervonta has also been friends with Cody for awhile now, after Cody mentioned that Gervonta was one of his favorite Boxers. Plus Cody is a business partner of Mike Tyson, who Gervonta is a protege' of. Gervonta did youth Wrestling, before he went full on into Boxing.. after seeing him MMA spar with Kevin Lee, Lando Vannata and Henry Cejudo, Gervonta vs TJ in MMA would be a competitive fight, even if Gervonta lost, and of course he smokes TJ in the Boxing ring too.
