Was Davis exposed? Overrated? Or just had a bad night?

[DaNeutral.]

I've not seen it yet, I'm always complaining about Davis but that's about his lack of fighting the top names when him and his team run their mouths so much but I think he looks a real high end talent regardless of my dislike.

So are we not just getting ahead of ourselves here? Did he have a bad night? Was he doing OK before he hurt his hand? Did he really hurt his hand or is it an excuse? Styles make fights and this could of just been an awkward one for him. Most top fighters have had an off night or an opponent who give them headaches. I've never heard much steam for Cruz before, he looks decent from what I've seen but not elite.

Or was he legit exposed? I expected Tank to roll right over this guy with a highlight reel KO.

All of the above

Well there is that. Has Tank not already fought and beaten fighters rated better than Cruz?

Exposed the first time he came up against a real lightweight.

[JakeTheBoxer]

He is not overrated, he is what he is, he holds secondary belt at 135 any way. First fight with a top 10 lightweight and he struggled badly.

Davis could be still very tough guy to beat for everybody at that weight, but he is no world beater like his fans believe.

Cruz and Tank are both pretty tough guys.

- - Tanksy pregnant again more like it. He ain't never been the same since Boner KOed him outside of Canelo's dressing room in one of his big fights,

what happened is you and the rest of the anti pbc crowd, whether it was out of racism or just sheer ******ity, decided Cruz was a Mexican bum that had no chance of beating Tank in order to force it into the current narrative that PBC only employs Mexicans to lose to black boxers.

You guys did anything and everything to denigrate and lessen Cruz because Tank was favored to beat him and a lot of you don’t want to give Tank, Floyd or PBC any credit whatsoever.

Cruz fought like a world ranked LW is supposed to. He tried to win the fight. Tank found himself in a tougher than expected fight and found a way to win, a close fight.

Now I know you don’t want to discuss race but when Tank was about the same favorite over Cruz as Teo was Kambosis, Kambosis #1 ibf, Cruz #2, yet Cruz gets denigrated while Kambosis is elevated, you know exactly what the deal is. Only question is will you admit it?

Maybe next time a lot of you will judge the boxer not by his nationality, stereotypes of the boxers from the same country and who Tank works for, but on his merits.

[Sctrojan]

Overrated but it's looking like everyone at 135 was. Time will tell with Garcia but imo,he will end up being the best,more accomplished fighter of the bunch imo.

[TreyShaw]

I don’t think Tank is overrated I just think Cruz is legit and one of the top LWs.

Well we can talk about race all you want, and it is always you that wants to talk about race.
