Will You Be Ordering the Gervonta Davis vs Mario Barrios PPV?

It’s simply a case of levels for me mate. I expect Tank to hit him easily and hit him often, unless he’s in Gamboa fight shape, I expect Tank to destroy Barrios. He’s a C level guy IMO. I’ve got Canelo vs Fielding vibes about this fight.
I feel like you must rate Tank a lot higher than I do because I'm just not sure why people are so confident he blitzes Barrios.
1. Tank has not shown his power travels past 130. Not saying it doesn't, but point me to what fight showed it does? Let alone at 140.
2. Barrios took a lot of punishment from a natural hard hitting 140 pounder in Ahkmedov and never was dropped and still had the power to drop him in the 12th round.
3. Tank gets hit and doesn't have great defense as we saw vs LSC and now he's fighting someone who is much taller with a longer reach.
I don't know, but I just don't see him having an easy time with Barrios at all. In fact, he can even lose if Barrios fights disciplined and works behind the jab.
The fight Tank's team was trying to make was the Ryan Garcia one before the latter moved on to Pacquiao...I wonder if they are using Barrios fight to prepare for Garcia? Since Garcia is a tall LW, has good power and length?Comment

[QUOTE=Keysandboxing;n30964470]Hell yeah. Real boxing fans know that this is a stiff test/risky fight for Davis. /QUOTE]
No they don’t because it’s not…
The majority of what you said about Barrios you could’ve said about Fielding when he was fighting Canelo.

And that's another thing, you can never be sure with Tank since he isn't always taking camp serious lol.
I'm guessing he will this time around. But make no mistake, he was NOT dominating LSC before the stoppage. That was a really good, competitive fight. Would the tide eventually turn? Probably, but Tank still got hit a fair amount.
Canelo is also arguably the best fighter in the world. I just think you rate Tank higher than I do, that's all.Comment

I hope so, I'm a Lubin fan but his chin isn't great obviously and Rosario is very strong. In the rounds he didn't drop Charlo, he either won or they were competitive. Charlo has a great chin but he had to hold on to Rosario tight a few times.
Lubin will need to gain Rosario's respect in the early going and then he can outbox him to a decision or even a stoppage. He was pretty cautious vs Guasha though. Has to open up more vs Rosario.Comment

He won't dominate Barrios. Fight will be competitive. People are sceptical of Tank and rightfully so because of his matchmaking since Pedraza but this is a good fight.
