Despite 25-35lb difference in fighting weights, Andre not much taller. Too bad Barrios doesn't use his height advantage more effectively.

Do ya think? He got hit with that right hook over and over and over again. I doubt he survives 2 of those from Tank, one might do it even.

Ward didn't even go see him. More like ran into him lol

One guy was down twice in that fight and it wasn't Barrios. Dominated is overstating. The Euro lost.

Barrios inspired by Ward to headbutt, excessively hold, hit while holding and lowblow? Or was Barrios inspired a different way?

I smell an upset here, all depends if tank has the power against guys at 140, if he doesn't then there us a chance barrios does a maidana to him and tank realises he went up a weight class too many.

That or tank walks through him early, but the value is with barrios so worth a bet i would say.

Don't worry, Gervonta has one of the best chins in boxing. He was hardly ever even buzzed. His defense is tight when he wants to, but his dog negates that. He likes to fight and entertain the fans. That's all he really talks about, the fans. If Barrios brings the works early, it won't go beyond 4. Otherwise, a good old-fashioned beating for 8 rounds.

Never saw Davis in 4th gear before. Maybe these big boys can humble him.
