    Money is going to be the biggest obstacle; they're both used to making really big purses. Neither of them are stars so the money aint there. Either they take a pay cut or they let the fight "marinate".

      Loma is definitely bigger, and am sure the money is there because Tank is not making obscene amounts yet. I doubt either would have to take a pay cut.

        We've seen the ratings Loma draws when he headlines his own cards. Not to mention the crowds at his fights are like wrestling house shows. Arum pays Loma like a star but he's just not. Also Tank himself said him and Floyd are looking at fighting more lucrative options. If the fight gets made anytime soon I will shocked.

            Davis needs to come back strong after losing the belt on the scales!

              I do not see him ducking why would he not want to be a champ people should not worry about the negative things and say o well he's sucking just because he has fought those guys yet he still has improvements so in a year I see him facing Lomachenko or Berchelt for now he has a limited amount of options maybe Gary Russell or let's see if Valdez would move and step up maybe fight Salido cause that's a good fight for him

                Russell is small. Gervonta cannot make weight at 130. He and Floyd said he wasn't ready for Loma or that they didn't need him even though Davis was a champ with twice as many fights.

                  I guess he will feature as a lightweight fighter instead of super featherweight.

                      Answering your question, he was winning Olympic gold medals at this age
