I definitely feel where Tank is coming from. I’m from Baltimore Maryland myself. It’s a rough place. So many killings and you have to watch your back everywhere you go. Too many haters in the City. I was in the foster care system myself at the age of 16 and it was rough. Bouncing around from group home to group home, and multiple foster homes as well. Also, ending up becoming homeless but Fast forward to now, I am happy I was able to move out of state due to my safety and that way I can grow (mentally, physically, educationally, and spiritually). I am currently one semester away from graduating college. All while being 30 years old now but age it ain’t nothing but a number to those who want to make a difference in their lives. God is so good.
I am also doing taekwondo and a purple belt and plan on making it to the big stage someday like the olympics.
i’m proud of you my brotha if nobody told you bro fr 💯 🖤
@@luldrekytv4971 thank you
I’m proud of you to gang keep going don’t stop for nobody and nothing 💯
Facts I had to fight my whole childhood coming from Baltimore , it definitely molds you to be heartless and tough
Your should do MMA but keep going keep shining and stand on bidness let them know who you are it's crazy cuz I always tell MFS the best thing you can do is have Baltimore after 18 years of LEARNING the city(and I mean learn the city you have to learn to survive) but you take that anywhere you gonna win.... Everybody love Baltimore niggas except Baltimore trust me
He ain’t lying when Tank said People would sit around you to figure you out so they can use you 💯 felt that
This man has gone thru the trenches and deserves ALL the respect… he gives back to the community as well!!! Salute big brotha

My favorite fighter right now, THE FACE OF BOXING
He might be your favorite but definitely not the face
@@Liltoxicfoofacts that’s canelo rn ain’t gone cap

@@Obstakill how many times has he outsold canelo?
He Not Da Face Of Boxing It's Still "Canelo".
Every time Vlad posts a random clip or Interview about a celeb, my heart drops and I run to Google.
ME TOO!!!!!! 🤣
What happened with Tank?
SAME😂
@@kirbkirb9345 Deez🥜🥜💩😭😭
😂😂
I'm from Baltimore the exact neighborhood where tank from Sandtown an tank is the example of making it out for us ❤❤❤
Tank is a legend in the making 🥊✨💯
No he ain’t
@@N.A.M.P. Is that you Haney or Shakur?
Yea bro this dude has crazy skills. I don’t even understand why people try to compare him to Haney. Tank is levels above and I think nobody is gonna beat him. My opinion
I'm so proud of Gervante Davis .Im from Baltimore and my life was not as hard as he's by any means but I still had a rough life as far as violence. I lived it so I don't need to talk about it, but real ones know ,so they feel me.But I'm never been in group homes or foster homes and I know how bad that is because my family members have been through it so I'm so Proud of Gervante to b where hes at and achieve what he has.Its amazing to me.I represent Baltimore heart and soul and if u ain't from here u don't understand .So Gervate u know we love u and we got your back.
Bro came out wit the hands….damn pure skill right there
Tank is the man and just a good dude you can tell. He’s put in the work and paid his dues glad for all his success he deserves it.
Baltimore stand up ❤❤410
His voice and smile are adorable 💜
DC for Tank 💪🏾
Tank just turned 29 last month, how Vlad just now releasing a 6 year old interview 😂
I was about to say is this old cuz he growing his hair
Damn
Right 😅wow 6years omg
I guess cuz the title says unreleased so he wanted to released it maybe
Generational Talent. One of the best
Without A Doubt!
Blessings brother Davis. Do your thing
Man my favorite boxer dawg humble as can be still to this day 💯
No matter what ppl say about dude. I will always support him. I don’t even watch boxing but I like him. Especially that fight Floyd came up and said aye you losing and he took that and did his job.
Facts I was there few people ringside kept saying this might be his first L but I knew he was gone knock em out eventually it was epic
Tank is best pound for pound but we all know that ryan fight was setup.
@@itsdatbullshitterhell no. He ain’t better than Usyk, Canelo, Bud or Inoue 😂
@@vince11harris come on guy. This is different weight class
@@itsdatbullshitter you said p4p. Do you know what p4p means
Vlad has interviewed everyone 🔥💯
I was in baltimore in 2006/2007. And just like vlad said, i never seen so many boarded up houses. Our taxi driver hooked us up, Literally popped his trunk and said anything you want i got and he definitely had the party and protection right there in his trunk. I had some of the best times as a 19 year old in Baltimore
Not like that now we have much improved
The greatest boxer of our generation. We in the Tank era.
Facts 💯 he the mini mike Tyson
Him and Crawford🥊
Tank living in the Crawford era just like the rest of us..
these new rappers can learn from this kid he come from a tough place he's been knocked around hit in the head a thousand times but he's professional and respectful and he's got respect for himself take notes even some older rappers
Comin from Se dc hoods and being in several foster homes and residing in a screening center transitional home I truly understand the effects of his upbringing so kudos to tank !🎉 one last note the foster homes I stayed and lived in were mostly really good experiences where the people really accepted me like family especially mrs Fannie Mae price aka big momma who became my surrogate mom ❤ , I say this because I realize that other people in the system had horror stories and didn’t fare so well . Congratulations to you tank keep climbing!
Great interview huge fan of this young man keep doing what you doing tank
Love me some Tank ❤
I'm from B-MORE AND I'M SUPER PROUD OF GIOVANNI. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP CHAMP,LOVE YOU
Who??

Beautiful Smile .
Love Tank man
5 years ago is crazy Vlad
Wow this is old all good still a great interview. What up Vlad!
yea,he is alot slimmer now
Great interview
I’ve been to highland town and Greek town two months ago 💯
Gervonta is the prize fighter of 135 bc when he’s in the ring it resembles just how he grew up (relentless)
My #1 fighter 🔥🔥🔥 Jacket 🔥🔥🔥
Tank got that Mike Tyson-esque look in his eye when he focuses. Got him going undefeated in his career.
TANK is definitely a star.
Big tank
you need to get him back on the show
WE LUV U TANK UR A SURVIVOR 💯
Gervonta Tank Davis is an incredible fighter.
What I like about Tank
he doesn’t start trash talking other boxers unless he is talk trash to .
I am a fan of GTD
Being from Baltimore Tank is the man & All… but he has no clue how difficult MMA is😭😂
Class 🎉
He never lied we have 20.000 plus abandoned and vacant homes it's very sad. Struggles to triumph proud of my Guy and ever more proud to call him our Champ.
Alright let's go !💯
The One 🦍
I really like the barbershop type conversation at the end about Floyd mayweather
Tank really the goat
I love tank
Word!!!!!!!
Hey tank love you from grew up in Murphy Homes projects ❤️ 💕 💖 💗
Baltimore in the building
Yessir class
Tanks 29 now, even though this was uploaded 13 hours ago, this interview's gotta be 6 years old cause he says he's 23.
Because he is half PitBull is the reason he fights so well😂
Tank is a Great Fighter. Keep up the good Work🥊
Straight facts👌🏼🤌🏼😅😅😊
My man..Bmore in the house..
I have to say that I'm very proud of Giovanni (correction, Gervonta 🤦🏽♂️)on how he had the opportunity to become who he is now. I grew up in a similar situation like him with being in foster homes. The only thing different is that his mindset is way better than mine by far 💯
Who is Giovanni ?
Exactly who are you talking about?? 😂😂
@@TariqShabah😂😂 that’s my middle name u think he meant Gervonta lol
@@ogvlogs7695 that makes sense I thought he was just talmbout somebody he expected us to know or s sumn 😂😂
Giovanni? Who tf is that
🔥🔥🔥
Hell yeah
I'm from DC and I understand. I'm an old head now and would love to just talk with him and not want anything. I know he should be leary of people trying to get in his pocket.
No H@M@ but I love that lil dude. He's so familiar. Young dude from the bottom of the bottom. Been through a lot, witnessed even more yet he stood tall and made it through to the TOP. When people blow up the incidents he's had it angers me because I'm from where he's from. Not Baltimore but the gutter so I know it could be a million times worse. So instead of judging, be patient with him and teach him. I'm a GTD supporter 4 Life🦍
We need a 50 Cent interview Vlad. Reach out to your boy, Yayo and see if he can make that happen.
50 don’t gaf about vlad
Shit fr so he can expose diddy ah
One of the new faces of boxing. I believe he will carry the torch after canelo.
Kid is a beast
It’s hard listening to boxers talk
Newyork for Tank
❤❤
Every tank fan made a 🤨 face when we saw this post, then we saw it was an unreleased interview😂
I remember watching this when it 1st came out 😂
Naw I had to see my boi. Good job Vlad
the way djvlad be so interested on some of the questions that has something to do with a charge let me know everything there’s has to be known about HIM.
Stop the whining enjoy the interview
His upbringing really reminds me of the MICHAEL LEE character off The Wire. Parents abandoning them so he raised him and his brother himself.
All things Baltimore SALUTE!!!!!!!
Man Tank was huge here lol
Why u ain't released it back in the day officer Vlad
😂😂😂😂😂😂
8:18 bro the way his face expression change instantly 😭😭
Bro had to lock in
Coach Calvin has taught tank for years to run through these boxers now
Let’s gooooo
YUHHHHH
The king of the 135 division right here!
Great fighter, one of the best right now, one of my favourites, but it is very sad his best fight so far is Ryan García, Teofimo Lopez at his 23 years already beat Lomachenko and Josh Taylor at 26. Bam Rodríguez is 23 and beat Rungvisai and Cuadras, is now unifiyng vs Sunny Edwards. Now Gervonta is 29. Canelo was 23 when he fought Floyd. I wander if Mayweather is not making more damage (promoting him as a PPV fighter, just making money vs lesser opossition) than helping him to be an all time great
Someone need to make a gif of tanks reaction to saying, sheesh, about trinas picture
Quit running and fight the best. You know damn well your running , just like them
I would have loved to see tank vs Sosa. Sosa is our hometown boy Camden nj
I fuck with Tank, he’s more poised than a lot of boxers
Tank has a new tank tattoo all around his jawline
Why is this just posted now? He’s fucking 29 😭😭😭😭
So he just clarified something, ppl was saying he didn’t wanna fight loma when in fact he did it’s Floyd was the one that didn’t want him to
I wonder how many unreleased interviews Vlad have...
Damn 6 years ago
