Gervonta Davis vs GRJ: Who Ya Got?

He just had shoulder surgery. Haven't heard anything suggesting he won't be continuing his career, just that he can't start training until January. Thank you. Just wondered..

I like Gary, but he has been too inactive and he is too small for Tank.

Is Loma still fighting? Any news from him? Haven't seen or heard anything about him since the loss. He just had shoulder surgery. Haven't heard anything suggesting he won't be continuing his career, just that he can't start training until January.

GRJ has short arms and would continuously have to enter the danger zone in order to score. He’s too small for this fight. I agree with this. However this is the best fight for Russell to take. Most money and the biggest upside if he wins.

How do you think Tank does against Lomachenko? Tank doesn't move his head always and every fight Lomachenko goes on these stretches where he turns it up and starts to overwhelm his opponent. Lopez was able to withstand that and then come back with a big 12th round. Can Gervonta do that? Will he able to get to Lomachenko earlier than that and possibly put him out? I honestly think he puts Loma to sleep or throughly beats him. I think Loma and Leo Santa Cruz are done at this point of their careers. I take Tanks win for what its worth. He beat an 8 to 1 underdog. BUT he did prove you have to be a complete package plus have size to beat him. I just hope we don't get more Santa Cruz types fed to him. Featherweights are fun divisions with a lot of diversity and style.

Tank hits hard at 130, even the best of talent in the last few decades would be at risk. The only current guy at 130 that can beat Tank is Stevenson. 5lbs north is different. But if he stays disciplined he could go down as 1 of the best superfeather weights ever. How do you think Tank does against Lomachenko?

A big skillful boxer would beat a smaller skillful boxer most of the time.

What's next, Davis vs. Inoue? Inoue vs GRJ would actually be an interesting fight IMO.

I’d be amazed if that happened anytime soon tbh man. I don’t see either Floyd or Oscar wanting to risk their best young fighter against one another. Then you’ve also got the opposing networks. They would make that fight a PPV. Garcia is signed to GBP, he doesn't have a DAZN deal. Coppinger reported a while ago that the target for a showdown between those two would be for December. I think both companies take the risk knowing how well it will do in terms of business and the stock of the winner will be sky high.

What's next, Davis vs. Inoue?

Yep, Ryan Garcia. This was a fight both teams have already discussed. It would be huge and could even possibly do better numbers than Wilder vs Fury II.

Tank vs Ryan Garcia? You think Mayweather and De La Hoya would be willing to work together one that one? Yep, Ryan Garcia. This was a fight both teams have already discussed. It would be huge and could even possibly do better numbers than Wilder vs Fury II.

Fortuna is with PBC. Tank at this point will be fighting on PPV. His fight generated good buzz and the PPV should do good numbers. Fortuna probably isn't in his near future. There was a lot of talks of Tank vs Garcia in December before the pandemic and that's a fight I can definitely see happening in 2021. If Tank stays at 130, I want him to fight the winner of Berchelt/Valdez or GRJ. Maybe the winner of Herring/Frampton. Though watching Frampton's breakdown of the Tank/LSC fight, I don't think he is all that interested in getting in the ring with Tank. So that fight probably doesn't happen if he beats Herring. I wouldn't count out a Lomachenko showdown in 2021 either. Tank has a lot of good options at 130 and 135. Hopefully we get these big match ups with these youngsters. Tank vs Ryan Garcia?

Gary is a little bit shorter in height then Gervonta but trust me. Gary would look dainty next to Davis, the same way Santa Cruz looked. These guys just don't have enough firepower or natural weight to prevent Davis from eventually getting to them. By the halfway point of the fight they are already worn down. The only fight worth mentioning is Berchelt at 130 at this current moment aside from competing at 135. Love the Berchelt fight, wish it happens soon if Berchelt beats Valdez. Tank can't claim to be the best 130 pounder until he beats someone like Berchelt. That is a terrific fire fight where someone is getting put to sleep.

GRJ against Tank or LSC. Easy fights to make and should get done.

Is Fortuna with PBC? I wouldn’t mind that next if it’s not one of the TR guys like Lopez, Loma or Berchelt. Fortuna is with PBC. Tank at this point will be fighting on PPV.

I think he could, he’s fighting around his natural weight IMO. A guy with his dimensions should be at bantamweight really. Not saying he could make bantamweight but most guys with his his physical measurements are around that weight. GRJ reminds me of Hamed at featherweight, in the sense that he’s fighting at his natural weight because he’s good enough to and doesn’t want to have to cut weight. GRJ also doesn’t like cutting weight as he had a bad experience trying to do so when he was an amateur, think he passed out or something. Yeah, he had trouble making weight for Lomachenko but I don't think he will have many issues at 130. He's good enough to compete at that weight class. His lack of height like Tank may be his downfall eventually, but I'm still interested in this fight. GRJ requested the WBC make him mandatory for the Berchelt/Valdez winner. If he gets the winner and wins, then he will prove he is legit at 130 and the Tank fight becomes a big one.
