Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis And Frank Martin On Course For WBA Lightweight Title Fight

[Eff Pandas]

Decent match-up. Martin's inactivity will be his undoing, but he's fortunate that Davis has also been inactive. I like that this is a match-up of southpaws, which hopefully means less caginess.

Hadn't gotten around to thinking about this yet, but yea thats not great + that last fight was his worst fight most would likely say.

Ideally you'd have gotten a fight in to get the bad taste outta his mouth with the last performance on top of the activity issue.

This fight won't sell 100 k mark my words baby girl

I'll take the over 100k & bet the house. Tank has done 5 PPV's & all have been 200k+ & hes coming off his biggest PPV.

Frank Martin, a prospect who is not ready for the top level, he will gladly obey to all the demands, thats the only reason PBC has him in their roster, same with Rolly and Pitbull Cruz, all these guys get build up to feed them to Tank, they will not take the risk and have Tank face one of the top guys around his division, meaning no Shakur, Loma, Teo, Haney, Matias, Zepeda and no Keyshawn Davis in the future, because they have fooled some casual fans into that fairy tale that Tank is a great fighter. They learned from Adrien Broner when he stepped up and faced Maidana and Wilder when he finally faced Fury. Get ready for Tank vs Rolly/Pitbull 2 early 2025.

I think Tank wins easy, but it could end up being a fight. I'm starting to celebrate any fight that looks halfway decent. This year has been mighty slim pickings.

Big fight, good matchup

That's a pretty good fight for both guys IMO.

No , your right , it takes two to tango
Let’s be realistic though , Tank ain’t bringing in great numbers besides the fact he sells seats , give him that much but his ppv ( which honestly I don’t think he should be on ) are the greatest
Ryan , no matter what people think of him , is going to put i your pocket
Just look at Haney , didn’t he say don’t fughin mention my name again and swore he wouldn’t do business with Ryan
How long did it take to sign and get the fight done ?

Agreed. But we're a out to venture into unknown territory so we could both be right or wrong. We don't know what Tank and Ryan will do without each other now but we're about to find out. Dazn doesn't have the best record whennit comes to PPVs and if this were on American PPV (show/Hbo) it should do really well because both are well known commodities in the boxing world. Amazon is brand new to this so we don't know if the power of Jeff Bezos can push this to unforseen numbers or was boxing a bad deal for them to get into. Only time will tell!

Hahaha.

Don’t you know the difference between real offer and a publicity stunt? When has a fight ever gotten done by sending an offer to take directly? That offer should go to one person and one person only. If Eddie really wanted the fight he’d go through proper channels to get it done.

Quack, quack is all I hear. The offer was made. Davis said no. That's all there is to it. Stop making up noise to try and justify his cowardice.

What name does Tank want to be called now ? Is he still Gervonta Tank Davis , or is he now Wahid Abdul ? Does he have a preference ?

As far as the fight goes , Martin is good enough to make it interesting and he's a very live dog , but Tank should be able to hurt him and get him out of there late.
