Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis vs. Mario Barrios - PPV Card Officially Announced

[The3]

This WBC & WBA title eliminators are only going to PBC contract fighters much like the WBO goes with Top Rank fighters

When he was fighting Featherweights, "He always has the advantage." Now he's fighting a nearly 6'0" Super Lightweight, "Barrios is nothing special." I hope Tank stays @ 140, and fights Ergashev, Brandun Lee, or Gary Antuanne Russell! MAN UP!

You just have to laugh at the double standards abs the outright bias. If it was Edward Hearn making this card legions of degenerates would be singing praise about the hardest working promoter in the business lol

Young Davis is attempting to do a Hank Armstrong.....I will be watching

nothing like henry armstrong

armstrong held LINEAL TITLES in 3 different divisons

davis hasnt even won 1

same with canelo except he held the lineal title in middleweight but super and light heavy he won regular titles

the only person who came close to armstrong was floyd

Very good card. Al delivers again! Surprised Tank took such a dangerous assignment. If his power doesn't carry to 140, his little ass will be in a world of trouble.

”dangerous assignment” lmao!! Dangerous would b growing a pair and taking on Teo, Loma, Haney, Ramirez, Taylor, even GRJ has called Stank out and is willing to move up. Plz enlighten us - wat is “dangerous” about Barrios? His huge win over WHO? His stellar defense? His vaunted power? His speed?

Not a bad card, pretty good actually....too bad they're calling it PPV....bc it should be on regular Showtime.

[Combat Talk Radio]

The Barrios and Akhmedov rematch should’ve definitely been made before this. Akhmedov gave Barrios hell.

Correction: Akhmedov BEAT that man.

[El_Mero]

He has a secondary belt at 135. This ppv sux.

Still don't understand how this is PPV worthy?

Any fight that will make more money via PPV over the go to platform option = PPV worthy to the folks with skin in the game more often then not.

People are assuming a PPV means something special. It doesn't. Plenty of fights waaaaay less "PPV worthy" than this fight have been PPV fights.

[IRONCHINHAGLER]

Sucks its ppv bcuz this is a really good fight, props to Tank for taking such a tough fight. I will be throughly impressed if Tank wins considering I think hes the low key underdog.

dont take much to impress u bro...u have seen Barrios fight? What is so impressive about Barrios...no defense and eassy to hit. Davis will have power, speed, footwork advantages. Barrios does not fight “tall”, so his height and reach mean very little. Davis will probably outweigh him when they get in the ring...will easily get inside and ko b-level Barrios with a body shot. Easy work.
