    Is Lomachenko vs Davis still the biggest fight to make at 135?

    Supposing that Davis gets by Ryan Garcia and considering that Haney is vacating his belts, it stands to reason that Loma vs Davis would be the biggest PPV fight for the 135 division.

    I also think that despite Lomachenko's loss against Teofimo.... Mayweather would STILL be hesitant to put Davis in the ring with him. So I see potential stumbling blocks to this fight.

    Talent wise, I think this is also the best match-up of fighters at 135. I'm also genuinely curious how Mayweather thinks Davis can beat Lomachenko. Because on paper, unless Davis is able to land something big at some point, Lomachenko SHOULD be able to outbox him.

      I think so. From an action and name standpoint I can't think of anything bigger.

                  Garcia/Tank is probably the biggest fight.

                  Obviously either v Haney is also a 'better' fight as it's for number 1.

                      No. The biggest fight is the undisputed 4 belt champion- Haney, against the cash cow of the division- Tank.

                      The next biggest fight is Tank v Ryan. Then Tank v Loma.

                          It’s the best fight to make IMO, I believe they’re the best two fighters at 135.

                          The biggest fight financially would be Tank vs Garcia though I reckon.

                          Ideally, we get Loma vs Haney next and Tank vs Garcia finally gets made but as we know it’s never that simple.

                              Davis will just get his sht pushed in unless you’re banking on a Ko punch to save him. probably gets stopped too. Maybe by the time it’s safe to fight Loma (when he’s shot and done).

                                  It'll be Haney-Lomachenko next more than likely.

                                  I give up with Tank. I like the guy but he's approaching 30 years old and is still yet to fight anyone of any real note.

                                      NO! Tank vs Garcia is bigger as is Tank vs Haney

                                      Still want to see Tank vs Loma regardless
