    He can win a lot of fights he is a high-quality boxer, but not winning the real big ones, he just found his high water mark, once you quit its a boogie man if you are ever under that hammer again.

      Start from scratch and go get Mayweather Sr. to clean up his fundamentals and add some wrinkles to his game. Follow that with 2-3 easier fights, then have him ready to go in late '24-early '25 at age 26.
      Apparently, Ryan is not the easiest guy to get to listen. Goosen said as much during their camp and we've heard Reynoso and Canelo say he didn't take instructions well.

      He's a social media star and doesn't "need" boxing the way his peers do.

        I'm just hearing a lot of people saying Ryan will be a beast @ 140, but Tank drained him. Based on what? If that's the case, then when Ryan goes to 140, I want them to tell me who he is gonna smoke? Prograis? Matias? Gary Antuanne Russell? Teofimo? Taylor? Ramirez? I want them tell me who? Based on what?

          Sound about right. I mentioned Mayweather Sr. partly for the respect and discipline that would be instilled, but Ryan doesn't seem to be built like that.

          He's on deck for joining the wasted talent list.

            When getting beat like that and Ryan knew early he was in trouble, there is a sense of panic and I think Ryan was in that mental state making it hard to be level-headed under fire, it all sounds good from the audience but its a tough place under those lights and Ryan is still only a boy, I hope all the rubbish he will get thrown on him doesn't fck with his head and finish him, he be on a real low right now hope he doesn't slip back into depression.

              140 has always been for the fighters who arent good enough at lightweight and those who know they would get whooped at welterweight.

                He won't if he knows what's good for him

                    Everyone ****ting on ryan a good kid who dared to be great and even accepted handicaps because of the belief he had in himself

                    He made this massive fight happen so all you bitches who would be up his ass if you met him in person should try and look yourselves in the mirror and ask what you've done with your life

                      Yeah, only nine hours to rehydrate…on top of being made to get down to a catchweight. Most normal fights have no catchweight and allow more than 24 hours after the Friday weigh-in to replenish. But Tank felt he needed every little extra advantage.

                      Ryan clearly will not be weight drained at 140. I don’t see how that’s even arguable.
                      What ring weight was he here, and what ring weight will he be at 140, I think you would be surprised how close the two weights are.

                      9 hrs was plenty after already gaining over 9 lbs, if he was so drained tell me how he was able to throw Davis around the ring, tell me was Ryan fast, did he have snap, the answer is yes to both, now tell me the things in the fight that point to Ryan being weak and drained, I know he got stopped by maybe the most devasting puncher in boxing.

                      He had a CW and lost so he must be drained, but nobody can point where he looks like a weak drained fighter, his speed was there, his snap was there, he physically manhandled Davis pretty much when ever he wanted to so what happened, he got hit hard, that's what happened, that's when he became weak, go look at known drained guys Oscar Lalonde Dawson, they have no physicality, they are not snapping punches they are pushing them, they fade round after round, they look unsteady even staggering, where is any of this with Ryan last night, show me.
