Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis 'Just Making Sure Everything's Fair' With Rehydration Clause For Garcia Fight

[ShoulderRoll]

The rehydration being in the morning with 12hrs till fight time means absolutely nothing, the initial CW is more chance of causing any issues and we wont know until fight time but locked to 146 with 12hrs left , means nothing physically and maybe something mentally which is why they slapped it on, but hearing Ryans Father throw it out says a lot, if the rehydration clause was at night and hour befor the fight then its an issue, not how it is.

Ryan has to do BOTH.

Make sure to come in at 136 lbs AND THEN not rehydrate to normal levels. The combination of the two is what I find excessive.

What is the penalty if he's over in the morning?

[SUBZER0ED]

tank only listened when it was someone he thought he could beat. those other guys wanted him and he ran away like a coward. and yeah davis knows garcia will be drained just like floyd knew canelo would be drained. tank is hoping a healthy garcia goes on to be great like floyd vs canelo but that doesnt change the fact that canelo/garcia werent that good at the time of the fights especially considering hte drainage

So you're saying if a champion has a list of fighters calling him out and he chooses one that he feels he can beat, that makes him a coward? That shit happens all of the time. Just ask Canelo.

If it’s not too harsh, ryan should just disregard it by a few pounds.

Do you care more about seeing a good fight between two fighters at full strength or about seeing Tank “flex his A-side muscle” and compromise his opponent physically?

Sounds like you prefer to see Davis at a disadvantage. Why is that.

So an added 10 lbs won’t rehydrate Ryan. Sounds like you want Tank at a disadvantage. Why is that?

That was a very dirty mover of Tank,

Very dirty move

Is it a dirty move when Canelo does the exact same thing?

[just the facts]

Tank saying he's scared of Ryan without saying he's scared.

We got the message champ!.

Oh wait, you aint even a real champion, secondary and interim belts don't count.

So actually, its: "we got the message fake champ!"

So Tank ensuring he won’t be at a disadvantage size wise makes him scared? A weight Garcia has fought at his entire career except two fights.

So why do you bash canelo for it but not Tank...no need to answer we all know why.

[just the facts]

Here's the thing, don't sign a contract and THEN complain that you don't agree to the terms. I seem to remember a time when the weigh-in was on the day of the fight. So weighing in the day before and being limited to a 10lb rehydration clause on fight day isn't quite that bad. Anyone who says it's fair for Ryan to come to the fight weighing between a WW & JMW, just wants to see Tank lose to someone who is much bigger than him.

Good post. Spot on. Makes total sense. Nuff said. End thread………….
