lol , if a 154 guy fought a 140 guy at 147, to those fighters its a CW, now that would go over your head like Boeing 747, CW is a phrase that comes in two ways , Catch Weight or Contracted Weight, they mean the same thing, and they mean it in relation to the actual weight circumstances, not the casual way of setting division limits as cant be a CW, they can. depending on how the fighters arrived at that weight to fight, its not about the weight division, its about two different weight class fighters meeting at an agreed middle ground, that's a CW regardless if its lands on a division limit or not, you understand this fight was technically a 140 fight, which is 136 to 140. , why are you mentally locked into a division limit? when a division has a range.
Cotto was a WW when Pac fought Cotto at a CW of 145. 145 is a CW, 147 isnt a CW. Cotto moved up to 154 after loss to Pac, so that is irrelevant. Pac offered rematch at 147 which isnt a CW. 135 for the Tank and Ryan fight is a CW fight at 135 as Ryan was already a 140 fighter.
So Tank needs to rematch Ryan at 140. and no hydration clauses. Floyd needed to rematch Nelo at 154.Last edited by Roadblock; 04-24-2023, 02:42 PM.Comment

This is the problem with misplaced toxic hate.
And yes, Garcia at 140 was NEVER going to beat Tank.
I can admit that PAC without the CW would have probably beaten Cotto, Margarito etc, these guys can’t admit their guy got beat fair and square.

I actually don't root for either fighter when they are fighting, because of their arrogant personalities. But the fact of the matter is that Tank is an established champion in several division's, and Ryan isn't. Ryan was ****** enough to agree to all of Tank's stipulation's, so that's on him 100%. You can't agree to all of the other fighter's demand's, and then complain about it. That's just some two faced crap on Ryan's part, you accepted/signed for it like a man, now deal with the loss like a man.

I get that but Tank was the smaller guy. The fight has to be fair and Garcia did not have to accept.
The win has an asterisk and the defeat has an excuse. Which is all a bit of a shame when boxing is a pretty simple formula. Two men get in the ring - the best man wins.
I doubt it was Garcia who asked for the clauses though. Think on that.
I enjoyed the build up and the fight so I don't particularly care. But if that's what it's going to take to get a big fight with Tank then he's still on shaky ground with me in terms of his reputation. That's not daring to be great.
Didn't Garcia also make a bet with Tank that winner takes all? You can't tell me he felt he was at a disadvantage when he did that
As a side note : Any fighters who take those bets are complete fools. Doesn't matter who you are - you can lose. Don't take ****** bets because of your egoComment

I don't know what you are saying about Canelo. but he was a novice when he fought Mayweather. Best win Austin Trout. Had just beaten Ricky Hatton's *brother*. Mayweather even called him ****** after the fight for accepting the weight loss.
Like I said in my previous post Garcia made a bet with Tank that winner takes all in this fight. Knowing he had a rehydration clause.. You trying to say that Garcia is ******?
Regardless Tank won on boxing skill. It was just plain to see. Everyone knew he would win before the fight - except Garcia fansComment

tank only has one legit belt at 130. his belts at 135 were interijm belts won against shot unranked gamboa and barrios. lets not pretend like hes a legit fighter here. hes not

This fight showed clearly that fanboys do overrate Garcia and haters underrate Davis. Garcia is a very good boxer who leverages his celebrity to get choice matchups. But Davis is an elite fighter, even if his resume is lacking. Now I'm hoping he takes a shine to the Haney/Loma winner or Shakur.
Garcia shot himself in the foot by crying "no excuses but..." Never a good look.
