    Ruiz is really nothing more than a past his prime bantamweight.

      He’s at the same weight as Ruiz, but a much better fighter. The Rigo fight would be a joke, but this **** makes it look like a superfight.

          It is one weight class. If he had been at 140 for only 1 fight different story but hes been there a while even for back to back fights.

          As for Tank dude is picking on a guy 2 weight classes lower and Tank can barely make 130. Not that it is all his fault being hes just trying to save his fight date now

              Exactly! That's not his fault! Mares, that was on him! Floyd has to go big after this! I don't see much for PBC @ 130-135, so i'm not sure what he could do? I want Tank Davis vs. Devin Haney, and Vasily Lomachenko vs. Teofimo Lopez in 2019!

                Yeah for tank the only realistic fight at end of year is Farmer which really isn't that big after Farmer's deal at DAZN is over. Other than that maybe GRJ if he moves up is a good but not huge fight.

                130-135 ESPN has most of the best talent locked up. We know Loma has WBA and WBO at 135 and soon will be fighting Commey Chaviev winner to pick up that IBF strap. So all that is left will be the 135 that Mikey will be dumping soon. that belt will likely go to Luke Campbell whos at DAZN along with Farmer and his 130 IBF and Machado and his 130 lb WBA plus Ryan Garcia, Francisco Vargas, etc.

                ESPN also has Ito who has the 130 WBO, Berchelt who has the 130 WBC and ESPN/TR also has top contenders Bryan Vasquez, Jamel Herring, Jason Sosa, Andy Vences, Erik Deleon, Teofimo Lopez, etc.

                haney would be a good one but as long as he wants to stay independent I don't think PBC would risk their guys against him.

                ESPN has most of the belts and talent at 130-135 at the moment.

                  Can't blame Mares or Tank, injuries happen and when you're scrambling to find replacements the pickings are VERY SLIM because not many people are going to want to fight a talent like Tank Davis on Short Notice and I don't blame them.
                  Really? They had no problem finding somebody smaller to fight tank.

                    Fair play to Ruiz for getting back in the ring so soon.
                    I know nothing off him but he appears too small to be fighting Davis.

                      I'm not so sure if Loma will be fighting the Commey vs. Chaniev winner, since Hearn had the WBA push for Loma vs. Crolla purse bid? If Loma goes to the UK, I think Haney just might get Commey or Chaniev. I would love for GRJ to move to 130 for Tank, especially if he and LSC can't come to terms! I also wouldn't hold my breath for Farmer leaving MatchRoom. Eddie Hearn has that bag!
