WHY DOESN’T TANK FACE BETTER OPPOSITION?
If he wants to raise his credibility with his fans & other boxers, he would be better off upping the level of his opposition to start fighting talented fighters because he’s been falling short of that his entire ten-year career.
Gervonta is pushing 30 years old, and sadly, the best non-washed-up name on his resume is Jose Zepeda, who is nothing special. The other guys Tank Davis has fought have been a mix of subpar fringe-level & paper champions. In his last fight, he beat Instagram boxer Ryan Garcia.
Tank Davis’s best career wins:
- Mario Barrios – rehydration clause
- Ryan Garcia – ditto
- Jose Zepeda
- Leo Santa Cruz – washed & much smaller
- Yuriorkis Gamboa – 40-years-old
- Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero – social media fighter
- Isaac Cruz – fringe contender
- Hector Luis Garcia – Hand-picked from the super featherweight division
Gervonta is expected to fight next in the first quarter of 2024, but as of yet, no opponent has been named. These are the likely options that Mayweather Promotions & PBC will be choosing from for Tank Davis’ next fight:
- Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz – rematch that few fans want to see, but it’s another easy money-grab for Tank Davis
- Ryan Garcia – ditto with the easy money-grab rematch
- Frank Martin
- William Zepeda
A rematch between Tank Davis and Pitbull Cruz would be a poor one to put on PPV, but given that all of Gervonta’s fights are behind a paywall, that will likely be the case. The boxing public would like to see Tank Davis take on Devin Haney, Teofimo Lopez, Vasily Lomachenko, Raymond Muratalla, and to some extent, Shakur Stevenson. It’s unlikely that Tank will fight any of those guys next, or perhaps never.
