Gervonta Davis’ Hairstylist Denies Using Grease In His Hair In Fight Against Lamont Roach

There has been some serious controversy surrounding Gervonta Davis’ hair in his fight against Lamont Roach. Some people are saying that his hair was greased up and it caused his performance to be subpar, but let me tell you, his hairstylist is shutting down those rumors real quick!

According to Gervonta Davis’ hairstylist, there was absolutely no grease or any other kind of trickery used in his hair for that fight. She swears up and down that she never used grease in his hair.

She said, “I did his hair WEDNESDAY, It’s SATURDAY! He did press, gym and weigh in. That’s no excuse, how much grease did I use damn. Is the grease in the room with us?” 

The undefeated fighter, now 30-0-1 with 28 knockouts, blamed his hairstylist, claiming grease from his freshly braided hair had dripped into his eyes. “I got my hair done two days ago, and she put grease in my s***,” he said. “It was sweating, running into my face, burning my eyes.” As the crowd booed, he defended himself. “Why y’all acting like I’m lying? This is real. Look at my hair, I just got it done.”

If Davis thought that would end the conversation, his hairstylist had other ideas. New York-based LeeBTheBrand fired back on Instagram before deleting her post. “I did his hair Wednesday. It’s Saturday. He did press, gym, weigh-in. That’s no excuse. How much grease did I use, damn.” She also posted a video of Davis at her salon, showing no sign of excess grease. To prove her point, she shared an image of the product used on his hair, with “no grease” clearly printed on the label.

Whether grease played a role or not, Roach remains frustrated that he wasn’t credited with a knockdown. One judge scored the fight 115-113 for Davis, while the other two had it 114-114. If the referee had ruled the knee a knockdown, Roach would have won. “If you voluntarily take a knee and the ref starts counting, it’s a knockdown. If that’s a knockdown, I win,” Roach said. “I thought I pulled it out. I want to run it back.”

At least, Gervonta Davis’ hairstylist deserves a tap at the back for working her magic and making him look fly in the ring even though he blamed it all on the hairstylist. This whole blame game is hilarious!
