Eddie Hearn called Gervonta Davis an “idiot” for his comments following Ryan Garcia’s failed drug tests.
Following his surprise victory over Devin Haney on April 20, Garcia tested positive for the banned PED Ostarine in two drug tests conducted before and after the fight.

He also tested positive for a nandrolone metabolite (19-norandrosterone) in one of his tests, but this result has not yet been confirmed while it undergoes further laboratory analysis. .
Ostranine is a selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM) used to help build muscle mass, burn fat, and increase endurance.
Nandrolone is a synthetic (laboratory-made) version of the hormone testosterone.
After the news broke, Davis came out and made the bizarre decision to defend Garcia for the failed test while simultaneously taking aim at Hearn via the now-deleted tweet.
“They’re doing everything to take the win away from Ryan,” wrote “Tank,” “If that’s the case, ban Eddie Hearn’s silver spoon ass.”
Hearn, who has had a long-standing relationship with Haney and has frequently promoted him since 2019, did not appreciate the remark.
“I mean, he blamed me? Really? This guy is an idiot,” Hearn told iFL TV in response to Davis’ message. “I already sent him a message.
“The only thing about Gervonta Davis is he really talks shit, but why are you deleting your tweets?

“You can’t stand by what you’re saying? So you want to say, ‘Yeah, Eddie Hearn is a bad guy for doing that.’
“What are you talking about? And then he deletes it. So anyway, I’m really sorry but I’m not involved in collecting Ryan Garcia’s blood and urine samples.”
Davis has a long-running feud with Haney and was seen celebrating his majority decision loss to Garcia just under two weeks ago.
Meanwhile, he stopped Garcia with a brutal body shot in April last year.
He has not fought since then due to a series of legal issues, but is now expected to return to the ring on June 15 against Frank Martin at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas live on Amazon Prime PPV.
In his next outing, “Tank” will defend his WBA lightweight world title for the first time since he was elevated to champion after Haney vacated the belt before moving up in weight.
