Tank Davis vs Mario Barrios?

[Eff Pandas]

I don't know about smoke but he'll be in a fight as long as it lasts. Gervonta's chin is solid. Never put down and hardly buzzed. He has fun in the ring. No punches wasted. Rewatch the Pedraza fight. It's worth it. Every round is action packed.

Who buzzed or kinda buzzed Tank? I don't remember that. Imma have to go back & check that out.

Floyd talk about this somewhere? Randomly Floyd needs a fooking podcast. Everyone & their grandma gots a podcast these days & Floyd don't got one.

And if the plan IS to fight Barrios to get a feel for 140 & then fight Josh I'll be a lot more forgiving of this who gives a fook (imo) Barrios fight, but I still feel like its a easy belt grab or that will be the story after Josh vs Tank isn't makeable cuz of different platform politics &/or Josh moving up.

This is me adding one and one and analyzing how someone like Floyd would think, seeing the landscape. The landscape is money fights only. Look up and down divisions. Why waste time with belts and their mandatories? When was the last time Davis had a mandatory? Nobody really gives a crap about belts when you are already a big name.

The Taylor thing: I think it all started when someone compared the UK Davies to Gervonta Davis. Somehow, Taylor and Davis exchanged some heated words around that time. They don't like each other. Floyd's presence at the Joshua fight was also not for nothing. I think he was gauging the UK fans.

Cruz landed a couple of shiners. He didn't even feel Pedraza's punches.

I'd consider this fight a present as a big Davis fan if it happens. I'm tired of the twitter talkers. I hope Davis never mentions them again.

Surely, 140 is Tank's ceiling weight based on his height etc. I know he has power for not sure he's dynamic enough in any other way to succeed higher than 140.

A lower top ten. All I wanted was for Tank to test himself and stop bringing up guys in weight. No reason for me to move the goal post just to complain.

Fair enough man. I would have preferred to see him face Fortuna but at least people can’t complain about him dragging featherweights up or anything like that.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

No. They **** talked before. Not sure Taylor can beat Barrios. Josh Taylor is so overrated and someone like Davis would expose his ass.

Behave...

Taylor murders that Barrios, and he’s far too big for Tank.

Taylor’s unquestionably a highly skilled fighter, he can fight inside, outside, great punch repertoire, power in both hands. I’d strongly advise you watch Taylor-Prograis, that’s was a high level fight between two world class fighters.

Yea idk about that then. Tank is a attention getting guy. I believe he was "beefing" with TJ Dillashaw or some sh^t at some point too. Thats what he does. He does sh^t that gets attention on SM.

But yea I think its a unlikely fight to make just cuz of the platform politics. I think thats one of the big reasons he's fighting Barrios if that is the next fight. Barrios is PBC. Josh ain't. I don't even think Josh is a money fight. Idk that he's THAT popular. JCR is probably the more popular guy & thats a fight that likely isn't makeable either, cuz of platform politics, assuming he beats Josh.
