Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis Drops Mario Barrios Three Times, Stops Him in Eleventh of Fireworks Fight

[Citizen Koba]

Barrios is better than Nakatani. No question about that.

Woulda said they're on much the same sort of level myself, think Tank may have been giving up a bit more size though. Impessive performances by both Loma and Tank although I don't think anyone was super-surprised in either case

Really? You see the same level of skill and punching ability that Barrios posesses in Nakatani?

I won't overhype the win for Tank. But if people are saying Lomachenko is back just because he beat up on a punching bag I don't see why Gervonta can't get some praise too.

if tank was some random euro who was division hopping avoiding the hardest fights and on ppv hyped as possibly the next big thing he would absolutely get slaughtered on here for all eternity

Tank has the power for 140, however the size disadvantage would be even tougher to overcome against guys like Josh Taylor and Jose Ramirez. His explosiveness is a great equalizer though.

Yeah he has that power, and his mentality in the ring is quite something. It's his size and punch output which ring alarm bells. B
ut then he's going to be fighting in-house PBC guys according to Floyd And in his range of weights there's NOBODY. So Floyd just said there's nothing to look forward to and nothing worth following with Davis any more. He isn't going to challenge his athletic limits,he isn't going to fight the best, he's going to make money.
So I'll not be watching, I just saved me some money knowing I'll not be buying a Davis fight.
It's a waste of an athletic career and the bottom line is, it's a fake. Like they'll sell him as having being a champion at 140 when he is very clearly not.

Don't worry, the white media would save the day, ala Loma and GGG, or anything white.

loma is russian and ggg is asian, not usually the most popular mix really
