He gets countered fairly easily coming in,he's been outboxed and down on the cards more often then not. They haven't put him in with a puncher which rings some bells. He said that Rolly of all people had him hesitant to open it up the first half of the fight. Frank Martin put away a fighter in Marinez that Rolly lost to. Tanks career since Pedraza had been smoke n mirrors. Pretty clear he's being protected. Shiet,Mayweather said as much when he said Haney n Shakur need not apply!
    Rolly is awkward, and is huge for a LW. I know people don't like him because he is a loud mouth but did you expect Tank to walk thru him? Nobody walks thru Rolly at LW believe it or not lol

    Tank can be outboxed but it's going to take a very defensive and disciplined boxer to do so thats why I think Shakur is his biggest threat because Shakur will just run and score points

      That is what power, and the perception of power can do to some opponents.

      It takes a certain type of attitude and fighter to overcome that intimidation etc.

        Ryan was dropped brutally by Campbell (who I think was a very good fighter) and came back to put his opponent away. He looked great last night against an overweight, faded version of Fortuna. Garcia still looked impressive but it's hard to take alot away from it.

        I still remember him being very fortunate to get the nod against Carlos Morales not too long ago. I'm not trying to rip Garcia, I think he's immensely talented and has potential to be dominant but I haven't seen enough to convince me he definitely gets by Haney or Tank.

            Betterbieve was brutally dropped twice by much lesser fighters than Cambell but shhh that never happened.lol

            Lol bro the Molina fight was a while ago the kid was like 20-21 at the time lol don't act like it was yesterday lol. Haney was being put on ***** street by bums at that stage too..cmon now.

            Haney Is so overrated around here it's comical.

              It's difficult to engage when you don't have the tools to gain entry. Especially when your opponent is taller, lengthier, quicker, and more explosive. Often ends up putting them in a position where they're waiting on someone like Garcia to make a mistake and get off-balance, but either the window is too small or they're never given an opportunity.

                  It mostly due to his speed he can hit them at will 3 or 4 punch combo while their barely able to get 1 shot. His opponents naturally tense up afterwards but I’m interested in seeing Cruz or Davis next how will their styles match up.
