Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis: I Always Knew That I Was A Top Guy; People Don't Give Me My Credit

[Roberto Vasquez]

Tank deserves credit, not for his opponents, but for his elite performances.

Oh yeah for sure he is a great can-crusher. Big respect to him for that. Happy now?

Kambosos has fought Mickey Bey in the US, Lee Selby in the UK, and Teofimo Lopez in the US during the pandemic.

Lomachenko fought Teofimo Lopez, Masayoshi Nakatani, and next week Richard Commey during the pandemic.

No excuses.

That applies to Ryan Garcia as well. He could have fought twice more but pulled out both times (I think). Haney, well, at least he's been trying to get more fights. As far as Davis, with his recent comments about being unfairly single out when nobody else is fighting the best, it sounds like he's onboard with the Program. I'd be very surprised if he fought any top 3 LW or jrWW next year.

I’m not making excuses for the guy. 135 division is hands down the most stacked weight class today. They all need to fight each other.
Before fighting Teo, I didn’t know of Kamboso. Before fighting Loma, I knew of Teo and I didn’t think he had a shot to upset Loma.
Tank is/was more well known because of his affiliation with Floyd perhaps that’s where the criticism comes in.

So, if these guys do not fight each other in 2022 and especially Tank, then I’d def share your sentiments. Tank has no one else to fight and it’s be pretty obvious that he’s being protected if he keeps fighting the guys he’s fighting.

He's 27, not 25, and Cruz will be just his third top 10 opponent in 26 fights.

and all 3 were in the bottom half of the top 10 with barrios only being ranked based on a gift decision and pedraza wouldnt have been ranked either but he recently got a gift over edner cherry. one publication even called it robbery of the year. tanks team knew this. tanks team knew barrios got a gift against ahkmedov.

Ha ha ha!! Can we just give him one more year? 135 wasn’t as loaded as it is today 4 or 5 years ago.

You know, it's interesting you take this stance.

With Crawford and Inoue you called them top P4P without beating anyone, but with Tank, you don't rate him without those fights? Why aren't you consistent? Do you work for Top Rank?

What's your take on Crawford now i know you were very critical of his resume .what do you think of him now . now that he has stopped Shawn porter?

Not yet, take your bra and knickers off and don't look me in the eye when you take them off.....Show some respect

You're not paying attention, because I put up FOUR threads the night of the fight and numerous posts since, including one just yesterday. So I'll let you do your research.

I obviously didnt see it otherwise i wouldnt have asked the question. i wasnt attacking you i just genuinely wanted to know. im not that eager to look through your threads to see. imagine if everyone had your stance. Anyway as for my take he fought a Shawn porter that already was thinking retirement. thats not bud's fault. He was fortunate to knock him out, i feel Shawn would easily hear the final bell if not for his dad. having said that Bud's power is legit. He got hit way too much to suggest he blows away Spence. I still favour the old Spence against Crawford but i fear the old Spence is gone '
