Comments Thread For: Tank Davis vs. Garcia Fight Has To Happen With DAZN's Involvement, Golden Boy COO Says

[P4P Forever]

Davis is a coward. Scared of every champ from 130-140. Elerbee loves saying stank can fight from 130-140. Sure he can, against guys ranked outside the top 10 Davis not a real fighter, paper champion/ internet fighter. Who's he beat Vs who he has avoided. This train ain't got no gas. Can't get over the hill. Its the tank that couldn't. Blame Golden boy Top Rank Matchroom Sky TV Dazn Showtime. PBC avoids more fights then they make, its a PBC thing so they play the blame game. Boxings almost dead here your proof. UFC, tank have 3 losses already but be fighting the best. Tanks fans so dumb probably thought Rolly was the champ as they save there money for Jake paul.

SCHOOLTHESECATS, you keep bringing up this app, this app, last I checked, it's 2022 not 1992, I don't know if you know but everything is an app. That app you speak off respectfully did 902k ppvs buy's for Canelo in his last fight. If you're old and have a hard time dealing with apps, I suggest getting one of your younger family members to help you figure the app out, don't worry if you have to buy the fight on an "App" you will watch it, it's going to be cool old timer. And by no means I'm I saying this fight will break records, but it should do a solid 500 to 700k, which is still good business, it will make more business than Spence vs Crawford, Crawford can't sell umbrellas on a rainy day, Spence will carry that fight, just how I believe Tank should get more for the simple fact that he's sold ppvs in the past but Ryan does bring fans to the table, so 55-45 split sounds about right, but don't worry you will figure out the app, if my Grandparents can do it, so can you, keep your head up....

You talking about me saying something about dazn app yet don’t know how to quote message properly how ironic….. canelo numbers wasn’t released against bivol…. And again dazn hasn’t performed well in the states had to cut they boxing budget by 65% and majority of what’s left goes to Hearn, even had to change they whole ppv is dead model to now offering ppv fights lol…. Don’t need to be a grandpa to know that dazn is just not good in the USA and flops have no network deal to promote any fights they do put on and tv commercials are slim to none all bad marketing 101

SCHOOLTHESECATS, Sure old timer, maybe when you learn how to use that gadget with a screen and a keyboard, you can figure out how to get ppv numbers... I'm sure you also missed the 800k in buy's Canelo did vs Plant, but I'll throw that bone to you just in case you're having trouble....

Canelo/plant was a showtime ppv and that 902k buy number you pulled out your ass and lied about for canelo vs bivol when all estimates say it sold around 520k buys which is a big flop and here are some sources for you

But the Mexican's attempt to become a two-time 175lb champion wasn't as much of a box-office success as some of his previous fights.

According to boxing reporter Dan Rafael, the fight generated 520,000 buys in the United States - where it was being broadcast by DAZN.

Although over half a million fight fans purchased Canelo vs Bivol, that number paled in comparison to the pay-per-view buys for the future hall-of-famer's showdown with Caleb Plant last November.

A whopping 800,000 people parted with their hard-earned cash to see Canelo unify the super-middleweight division.

Besides the politics involved in making this fight, another issue stands out. Garcia is 5'10", fought Fortuna @140lbs, re-hydrated to 148 and said he's never dropping down again. Davis is 5' 5 1/2", and fights @135. Although Tank is highly skilled, that is a serious physical mismatch.

Garcia only rehydrated 8lbs? Really??

[tritium_arma]

I agree with Robert here. Too bad Espinoza is a scumbag who never works with others.

[Corelone]

I would rather see Tank v Ryry at 136. 140 is for bigger game.

[SugarAnt05]

aint enough money to go around unless everybody takes a big cut

Garcia only rehydrated 8lbs? Really??

That's what I thought the announcer said, while Fortuna re-hydrated to 160.

[SUBZER0ED]

That's what some people don't understand Ryan isn't a pillow fisted scrawny Barrios who has pencils for legs and arms Ryan is big very big for even 140. He would hurt Tank and even though I don't agree with Tank handlers I like Tank himself he seems like decent guy but he would lose badly to Ryan.

I mean, size DOES matter! He looked huge in there against Fortuna. He would dwarf Davis. I don't care for Ryan, but he's just too big for Gervanta. I don't see Tank taking this fight @ 140, no way.
