    Going to come down to if Garcia has discourage Tank from coming inside or not. Garcia will have to land a big shot early on to deter Tank and make hesitant. Tank used to be a faster starter but now he tries to pace himself and likes to take his time so that will allow Garcia to take some of the early rounds. Once Tank gets going though, he's extremely difficult to deal with. Very good reflexes, quick hands, solid defense and just a heavy handed explosive puncher.

    Good fight.
    I think Tank would jump straight on him, I think it’d be a firefight early, would definitely be fun while it lasted.

      Completely agree with this part. He’s too flat footed. I just can’t see him avoiding the straight left.

        I think the fighter to trouble or beat Tank will need to be light on their feet with great footwork, to offset him fighting downhill.

        I think Devin, Loma, and Teo have the best chances. You could probably throw in Shakur too but I can only see Loma or Teo actually hurting him.

          Yeah Haney doesn’t have the power to keep him off, I think Tank destroys him as well tbh.

          Teofimo vs Tank would be an unbelievable fight man, would love to see that one, I’d lean towards Lopez but 50/50 fight IMO.

          I’ve always felt Loma beats him, because he has great footwork and work-rate. It’s a very tough stylistic matchup for Tank that fight IMO. Unless he catches Loma and takes him out, I think he loses widely on points.

          Regardless of who we think wins or loses though, we need to see these top guys at 135 fight one another. Far too much talking and not enough fighting in that division.

            I like both fighters. Tank looks the more solid and durable of the two with heavier hands. Garcia longer and taller and is lightening fast.

            Could be a shoot out

              davis should win easily but good lord do i want to see it. garcia can fight and that chin is straight up in the air. all the tik tok kids, all the boxing heads, the mayweather stans, the pacquiao stans, everybody will want to see this ****. pacquiao stans will want to see davis starched. floyd will trump up giant fanfare. garcia's giant on tik tok and with the teenage and early 20's crowd. they don't watch him box all the time, but they've seen his highlights, know exactly who he is, and will be invested in the fight. some of them will even buy it.

              to add to all of this **** you have vulnerable but powerful and game boxer-puncher in garcia, who has gotten off the deck and who is very sharp, against maybe the best puncher in boxing. it's a cannot miss fight. i can't see it getting much bigger without any of these guys fighting eachother and building their names. eventually there's going to be one shoe that drops. they're going to do it on ppv and make big money and the rest of the fighters will follow suit. garcia, davis, lopez, these guys are all around the same weight class and can absolutely fight. the winner can be an opponent for manny pacquiao. huge money.

                I don't know if Loma has that work rate in his game anymore. The last two fights he has been far more economical and is now picking his shots. Only two or three rounds did he really open up vs Lopez, aside from that he was throwing less than 30 punches a round.

                I always thought Loma's activity and stamina advantage would have him separate vs Tank late in the fight. But I always thought it would be competitive. It's a 50/50 fight for me. I slightly favor Lopez over Tank as well.

                  Garcia would have to come out fast and strong in the first six rounds and wear out Tank so he has to work hard in the second half. He can't just lay back and expect to counter all night. You have to push him.

                    Tank within five.

                    If Campbell did that to Garcia, either a body shot or a hook by Gervonta just disintegrates the kid.

                    But I doubt the fight will happen. If Garcia doesn't manage to keep his psyche at bay, feeding him to Davis would be a murder.

                      You’re possibly right, it’ll be interesting to see how he adjusts if him and Teofimo rematch later this year. He clearly needs up his work rate and be far more active early on, I personally think he can be but at 33 years old maybe he can’t.
