I’d expect Loma to outwork Tank early and build up a decent lead but in the second half of the fight, Tank will find an opening a take him out.
How do you see this fight going?
Moreover, at this particular juncture of his career; I just cannot see or think of any conceivable advantage where I could give Loma the edge over Tank.
Loma likes to fight off the front foot. That could prove to be very costly for an aging fighter with declining reflexes against such a dangerous counter puncher as Davis.

I think Tank stops Stevenson as well.
Neither Shakur nor Lomachenko have the power to keep Tank off and that will eventually be their undoing.

That may be so but I need to see it. Not going after you specifically, but I don't need to hear it I need to see it happen.
Now if he struggled against Haney what makes one so confident that he wouldn’t struggle even more against a much faster and stronger puncher in Gervonta Davis?

Davis is way more than a puncher lol, it amazes the level of judgement in here, I feel like about 5% know anything about boxing, a few days ago Matias was the killer going to beat everyone , and now Davis is only a puncher wtf are you boys not seeing.
However, to the reasonable boxing fan; We know better. As a fan of neither. I have to give Tank the edge.
Not only is he the younger, faster and stronger of the two but he is also the harder puncher as well.

Originally posted by champion4ever View PostI tend to agree. Tank has effectively aged the “Matrix” out. Loma is at least a split second slower now with even less punching power than before at 135.

IMO Bob and Loma ducking Shakur to instead fight that bum Kambosos suggests Bob thinks Loma only has one more big time fight left.
I do see plenty of excuses being lined up in case Tank does ko Loma. He’s old, he’s shot. Etc.
When it comes to Loma, these are not excuses, Loma (even years ago) was not the fighter at 135lbs he used to be at 130lbs & 126lbs. What were Tank's excuses for not fighting Lomachenko back at 130lbs?
My point with Tank vs Stevenson is that they're the #1 & #2 fighters at 135lbs and that's who I want to see fight. I think they both beat Loma at this point and I don't think any excuses are needed for that, it's the way of the sport, however, the ducking of the Tank vs Lomachenko fight back at 135lbs shouldn't be the way of the sport and bringing the match up today just brings memories of that.
