    Watch them all there is always something to learn.Judah looked past him and gassed down the stretch to make it close.Baldy prob deserved it but if there fought 10 times Judah would win 8 prob.And the Judah that fought Floyd was a much better version.

      I meant his skills. Is he all hype?

      I think Davis is already top 10 one of the best fighters right now. I don't think many reasonable fans would disagree with that?

      Him and Spence currently are the best two American fighters. I don't count Wilder. Talking about skills and natural talent.

        isn't crawford american? mikey garcia among many others. why is davis above either charlo? top 10 fighter based on beating pedraza, some unknown british guy, and looking bad vs some random guy? even if he ko'd them in one round he wouldn't be top 10 against those guys. what happens when you step up in competition is you are forced to find other ways to win since the other guy knows what you are doing. its more of a chess match then something based off physical skills. we dont know if he will be able to think of ways to use his skills to win since his competition has been so poor.

          really you think so? didn't judah fade in every fight? why would it be any different if they fight ten times? once again giving judah fantasy credit and ignoring his flaws that are obvious and consistent. baldomir was a bum but he kept fighting all 12 rounds as we saw against forrest who beat the crap outta him for 12 straight rounds.

              Of course, there are other American champions, some my favorites. The spotlight is more on these two.

              Not many are craving who Charlo or let's say Hurd is fighting next, although they are champions. It's just not the same. These guys are on the American spotlight, like it or not. I was just saying he's top 10 one of the best fighters in the world. Not P4P.

              Which 9 fighters are better than him?

                Broner was never that good. He was carefully matched and won some fights he should have lost. He was given fights for vacant titles against easy guys. Everything was handed to him but he lost the important fights against good fighters. Davis really is a very good fighter and much better than Broner ever was in my opinion.

                    are people craving davis fights? hes never even headlined a card here. thats a lot of speculation on your part. he's one of the top 10 best fighters in the world in his division? across all divisions but not p4p? i dont really understand.
