Comments Thread For: Mayweather CEO on Davis-Romero: Better To Let Them Fight In The Ring Than In The Street

[Rodtang]

So that's the justification for making this fight? They really don't like each other and its better they do it in the ring? Of course it's better they do it in the ring, but that doesn't excuse this match up as a big fight. Maybe Teo or Devin or Josh should rock up to him at a show, and when they get separated then you can make that fight. Except you won't Leonard. And Davis would want it too. Your wasting his career Leonard.

Let’s hope we get a memorable night even though it’s not a great fight on paper.

Fans seem to forget that sometimes you get surprised and have an epic fight like this past weekend that is well worth the money spent.

I’m rooting for these 2 to give fans something awesome to remember even though Rolly shouldn’t be ranked #1 and Tank should be fighting someone more experienced and talented.

Your right, every now and then surprises spring up. But how many people want Rolly to win? And how many were hoping to get this fight in the first place. The answer to both questions would be somewhere around, next to nobody. It's a let down that once again Gervonta isn't getting the chance to properly prove himself against the best.

Last weekend was #1 vs #3 that’s why. We want to see the best fighters fight the best fighters.

Where is Romero ranked at 135? Certainly not Top 10. Is he even in the Top 20?

It’s an absolute joke of a fight especially to have on a PPV.

Despite being 1 and 3, A lot of the chatter was about how wilder/fury 3 was going to suck. And look what we got.

I’ve made the same point about the fight on paper as you did in this post. But I’m hoping that despite yours and other being so negative that maybe something good comes out of this and we get an entertaining evening.

Not disagreeing with you but it’s 2 separate things.

No one wants this fight. That is a fair point and noted.

That stated, when Rolly was ranked first you had to know this would happen. My point is despite the above, hopefully just like wilder/fury 3, we get an unexpected great night.

Regardless, it's #1 and #3, there's significance there and also a rematch clause that was unavoidable aswell.

Even if it turns out into some crazy barnburner, it's still a joke of a fight. Tank has no business being competitive with someone outside the Top 10 at the weight class and if anything will just show his level.

We as fans can't be accepting fighters fighting unranked fighters on PPV, we just can't. "Hopefully it turns out to be a good fight" isn't a reason to accept joke fights like these.

I'm just glad the WBA is cleaning their house! It's a great start! I think fans on here keep focusing on "PPV." No one forces you to buy the PPV, nor buy a ticket! Whether it's Tank, Triller, or Jake Paul, fans have the power of the purse! Use it wisely!

I agree! Let's not forget we just saw heavily favored J-Rock lose to a last minute replacement and AJ as well to Ruiz.

I'm game!

I lost interest in Tank when Floyd, right after the previous Tank fight (can't even recall the opponent), said he would only fight "in-house". **** off.

An unranked brawler versus an overhyped paper champ who won’t step up. PPV no less. I’ll pass.
