Comments Thread For: Former Opponent Impressed By Gervonta Davis Improvements

TDLand - I would love to read your narrative of how Tank has 'run' from Lomachenko. I follow boxing & I don't understand that in any way, shape or form.

You see improvements even though he's losing a mass of rounds against handpicked opponents? Maybe a trip to the opticians is in order.

Its very hard to win rounds while youre setting them for a KO, do you even understand the nature of setting up traps luring them into a false sense of security, that's his style he still wins whether he gets you out of there or not, I don't know why fans don't realize its 12 rounds and its not over until its over, no prizes for being in front for a few rounds, Khan is the greatest 4 round guy ever and one of the biggest losers in big fights.

And he has improved a lot on where he was a couple of years ago.

Tank had a chance to fight loma floyd said he wanted to make that fight for him. But tank posted on social media that he is being forced to fight loma. That sounds a like avoiding to me

Ducking happens every time...you literally had people 7 years ago saying he is going to wait 5 years to fight Loma just like Floyd did with pac. He's gone over already by a couple years. And Loma is still a good fighter but he's not Loma from 7 years ago 6 years ago 5 years ago 4 years ago etc...

I wouldn't be too hard on Tank for waiting a while before being willing to fight Loma. Tank has developed into a much better fighter through the years and is now at a level, skill wise where he can compete against Loma. An earlier fight would have not been as even a fight. I'll still go with Loma as the victor, but it is a much better fight now.

Too right mate. They are offended by his dominance and being the face of American boxing. Some folk just cannot overcome how they were raised

Interesting take on tank now considering not 10 days ago u said

"Tank is looking to do to Loma what Canelo did to GGG, let the age take its course"

You think doing little to nothing, is setting someone up for the KO? That's not how it's done. He loses rounds because he's not very active, can't fight very well on the front foot, or doesn't take many chances if his opponent can punch like against Rolly and Cruz. It has nothing to do with some master plan or anything.

Khan, the guy who has a vastly superior resume to Tank and actually wanted to fight the best other than Brook? Tank wants to handpick all his opponents or age them out. That isn't someone who genuinely believes the bullshlt he comes out with. But if you want to pretend otherwise, know this... Tank loves you. You're the kind of fan he needs in order for his pathetic set-up to work.

Floyd threatened to make the fight with Loma some years back due to having a falling out with Tank, but Tank said on Twitter, "You're just trying to get me beat". He wanted nothing to do with it. When Haney wanted the fight with SA interested, Tank said he'd need 2 Ferrari's just to think about it. Obviously, he was told to f3ck himself as he wasn't that important. He even waited until Ryan had moved up just so he could drain him back down again and slap a rehydration clause on him to make sure he was badly depleted. That's not including all the other top fights he's avoided.

Sorry, but if you believe otherwise, you're not paying much attention. Even casuals know all this. You don't fight the kind of handpicked opponents Tank has by mistake. It's either that or you're the one being avoided. And we all know no one has avoided Tank. He's a mini Wilder with more skill.

lets get tank and loma over the line so, both guys are going well so now is the time to strike and make it happen, i have a feeling its next, just makes sense plus if it doesnt happen next i dont think it happens at all
