    Lol…all these tank haters are going to be eating crow Sunday morning. What are “all these stipulations” Ryan agreed to??? Rehydration is the only thing he agreed to. Poor ryan “bending backwards” to make this fight is BS…Ryan Garcia will get knocked out because he leaves he’s head straight up and has no lateral movement whatsoever. Ryan is a very skilled (offense) boxer but he lacks the defensive skills to be world champion. Tank sees it and no one from Garcia’s team is trying to fix this issue. The only thing Garcia’s fans are looking at is how fast and quick he looks on videos while shadow boxing. What people don’t understand is that there is a huge difference when you’re making a video verses when you’re in The ring fighting a “live” opponent. Case in point, if you watch Floyd mayweather training for fights, he looks like a normal Boxing with below average hand speed. But once he gets in the ring, he’s on another level. My point is, Ryan is a very good boxer but he’s still not ready for someone as experienced as tank. Tank will knock him out in the 10th round. Peace!

      All these boxing dudes make loads of money , so i don't care about their promotional "beef" . Its all known that these guys work each other from a long time and make fights between the mexicans fighters and the black american fighters which are selling very well in US.

      Its all about hype, marketing and making big money as both Ry and Tank have some padded records with lots of cherry picked fights to keep them safe until the final big cash in i.e US vs Mexico boxing match. This is a classical successful boxing recepie.

      Oscar and Ry accepted these stipulations because the risk vs reward ratio was very good in the favor of the reward as this was the best money match to be made at 135. They'll be fine and rich.

        Davis, as the A side, should have just insisted it was a regular 135 pretend-title defence. Weigh in, no rehydration clauses etc as usual. He's left himself open to these criticisms.

            Fair and competitive, this is boxing nothing is fair, and the competition starts in the ring where the fight happens not when the promoters try to act like they are the ones taking the punches before the fight happens.

            As soon as the fight is over one fighter is going to have all kind of excuses, as a matter of fact sounds like De'la is paving the way for complaints about a loss before the fight even has gotten started.

It’s gotten so bad that ‘’A side fury “ demanded 70/30 split to fight the middleweight with 3 belts. Mayweather started all this A side crap and now boxing ( fighters) have become businessmen and not fighters. It makes me appreciate Duran, Leonard, hagler, Holmes, Holyfield and a whole bunch of other fighters from the 80s through early 2000’s much more. On a different note Floyd wanted to go to 154 to get Oscar belt, Oscar didn’t make him go to 154. Bottom line is no matter what happens Saturday night Garcia demanded this fight and agreed to all these ****** clauses to make the fight happen. Let’s not forget tank fought barrios at 140 but won’t fight Garcia at 140 ? Tanks has missed weight before at 135 and ellerbe is calling delahoya a hypocrite??? LMFAO.
              Promoters promote that is there job, there reason for being in the game to get people interested, to get people agitated to make people look at the side show of boxing. That is all that is going on here, there may be some disguest of certain characters in the process of making this fight but they would gladly do the whole thing over again if the money is right, They complain about the other side after the ring walk is only 48 hours away. Look at Arum Look at King check them out in many years past when they start counting the reciepts all this will be forgotten unless it is a good promotional tool then they will pull out the same talk all over again. Welcome to the show..................my friends it's the show that never ends.....

                -Ryan had to agree to a 136-lb catchweight.
                -Ryan had to agree to a rehydration clause.
                -Ryan had to agree to having the weigh-in later in the day than usual.

                Basically a bunch of little b*tch moves by Tank’s team to try to make sure Ryan is as drained as possible on fight night. Shameful.

                    you forgot that tank would only tank this fight with a 1 way rematch clause to in his favor if he lost. There is no rematch clause for Garcia.
