Comments Thread For: Ryan Garcia: I Started Getting Bored In There, Tried To Press, Ended Up Getting Knocked Out

Stevenson vs Tank is a great fight without a doubt, but it's not the biggest fight to be made in boxing.
That honor would go to fight's like Fury vs Usyk, Spence vs Crawford, and Beterbiev vs Bivol.
These fighter's are at the top of their boxing prowess, at this point in time in their boxing career's.
Where as it can be seriously argued that Stevenson is still a year or two from reaching his peak in the sport of boxing.

Ryan say's that he got bored in their, what a ridiculously ****** thing to say.
Does he really think that making such a fool hardy lying statement like that help's him save face with the fan's?
The best thing that he could do for his career right now, is to focus his energy on correcting the mistakes he made, and working his way back into title contention.

My two cents. I was totally wrong in how Garcia would approach this fight. I give him credit for trying to be exciting, but it was embarrassing IMO. He has that much of a length and height advantage, plus KO power, and he comes in trying to brawl in the first few rounds, it was stunningly immature. He could have jabbed and picked his spots at will with his advantages.

Tank has power, that is what he has. He showed great patience and I give him alot of credit. But Garcia fought like an idiot, and "getting bored"....I am not a huge fan of either fighter, but have always found Tank exciting because he can get beat up for rounds, but has that big shot. This fight made me respect Tank more.

The fight could have been great. Ryan needs to really work on implementing a game plan.

Gameplan had nothing to do with it.

Davis was just too fast and explosive. Ryan didn't put the jab out there because Tank's movement kept him out of range and, just like the left hook, putting the jab out there with any intent often just resulted in Garica eating a big counter from Davis.

Ryan didn't have the timing, speed, or skills to walk Davis into a big shot or even keep up with him.

You do know that's like saying Betterbieve got knocked on his ass twice by literally a joe shmo so that means Benavidez and Canelo will knock him the **** out...it's that simple.

No way in hell is that what he is saying at all. Actual truth is that Luke Campbell was not a Joe Shmo in the class who "actually" knocked Garcia down, who then "actually" got knocked out by Davis. Why in the world would you want to venture to mention Garcia along with world champions Beterbieve, Benavidez, and Canelo.

I understand what you're saying but I wouldn't go as far as saying he's in the wrong sport. He has been more successful than most but there are levels in this sport and he's not at Tank's level. Levels IMO include skills but also physical and mental discipline

That's pretty much what I was saying in my post. He doesn't have the mental make-up for this sport if you get bored in the biggest fight you could really ever have.
