Comments Thread For: The Top 5 Opponents For Tank Davis -- And, No, Ryan Garcia Isn't One Of Them

[BronxPride67]

If you out Shakur in there, Tank gonna have to put a no running clause, Shakur would beat all the people watching at home by putting us to sleep with his boring ass fight style

Why Shakur last? I would say Shakur next, then a title @ 140! Loma can hurt his legacy, but he can't help it! Loma has already been beaten by Salido, Lopez, and Haney! He just swerved Shakur for Kambo! If Tank wins, all you will hear is "Loma was old, Loma was injured, Loma was shot, etc.!" Tank should focus on the guys who are in his prime, just like he is!

Yeah but Loma would be his older veteran with a little left to boost his name. That is how the sport works.

I doubt Bob lets Zepeda fight a non TR guy.

Shakur will happen if he goes to PBC. Pitbull rematch will happen, especially if Tank struggles with or loses to Loma.

People should watch the Cruz vs Davis fight. I scored it 3 times and the last time? giving Davis the benefit of every doubt... every close round I had Cruz winning by two rounds. Now I know i cannot score fights well, but that fight was very close and if you watch the first round carefully Cruz buckled Tank.

It looked to me like Tank's punches were flashy, BUT had no effect on Cruz, also, Cruz blocked a lot of them. meanwhile Cruz hit with many body shots that the judges did not score.

Cruz potentially could do amazing things, but he has used less head movement his last fights and this scares me.

Haney has been exposed... Maybe it is not fair, but Ryan showed the world that Devin is vulnerable to a real puncher. Besides Loma arguably beat Haney. Bill never got the memo that his son will not be the face of boxing...

Ryan, if not drained could be a problem for Tank, so could Lopez. Loma could also win because he knows how to make punchers miss. I do not see Tank as invulnerable... I think he has been the benificiary of judges and good match making. Martin is a very hittable fighter, you see it in his other fights.

I don't see it going down like that! I think he would be better off fighting one of the guys that already beat Loma, or Shakur!

Everyone saying Loma is too old at 36, guess he's not as good as that other 36 yr old who was still dominating fighters. Talking about Floyd.

The only fight that should be next should be the guy who whooped tank already and got robbed, his name is Pitbull. And for all the groupies that say Tank only had one hand, then shouldn't have a problem with tank proving he had on off night. But of course we all know tanky prefers to go fight senior citizens and the groupies will go wild....

[The D3vil]

1. Teofimo Lopez
2. Shakur Stevenson
3. Devin Haney
4. William Zepeda
5. Vasily Lomachenko

Shakur is off the table, could not sell a donut to a cop and is a nightmare stylistically nothing to gain for Tank, Loma? Maybe, he does have a belt, and a name, but same problem, he can't sell. Tank needs box office, someone that puts butts in the seats, and that is the takeover, no question. Lopez is the biggest and best fight out there for him, catch weight, no belts on the line. 600,000 PPVs at least.

Yeah like Frank Martin and Hector Garcia and Mario Barrios and Rolly Romero etc etc.. Stop with the ****** fking excuses

[Jsmooth9876]

None of them beat Tank- and nobody wants to see Shakur, Teo wont last 5 rounds, Loma ,I give him maybe 8 rounds, Cruz is the best of that bunch, but, nobody beats Tank

Cruz is the least skilled of the bunch by a country mile. He just has a head made of stone

[landotter]

Loma
Shakur
Zepeda
Keyshawn Davis
Isaac Cruz

I would actually like to see Zepeda before Shakur simply because I see that as a WAY more entertaining fight and think Shukur needs a few fights from that horrid sparring match where no punches were actually thrown. But that is splitting hairs. I love your list.
