Gamboa did not expose tank davis

[CubanGuyNYC]

Couldn’t agree more
Then we had some poster on this site trying to convince people that if Gamboa wasn’t reduced to a gimp , that Stank would of been able to get him out of there much earlier and easier
Talk about being paranoid after watching their boy Stank being really Stanky lol

I saw and replied to those posts. Lol That was really reaching.

... now: tbh, we just can't know if he was exposed or not...

... I rather think that Tank took some rounds vs a very skilled, but old and injured opponent...

... in his past 22 fights, Davis boxed an average of only 3 rounds per fight!...

... I maintain those above...

(not a Tank supporter here, but..........)...

... but the kid took his time, I guess...

That's what happens when you fight over matched opponents you're whole career.

... career???... I'm not here to defend Tank... I'm only trying to figure out...

It looked bad when i read your post on reflection of Tank's performance, the fact that Yuri had one leg also kinda made what you said true. I just feel Tank has been mismanaged, maybe he isn't a good as we all thought? Or maybe his team know something that we all knew?

I rate him quite highly but am also careful as well not to go overboard, this is why i wanted better competition for him over the last 2 years and his team seems to want to build him up as a "Star" without actually taking on the sort of competition that would make him a "Star".

Only time would tell with him.

Yeah, we’re gonna need to see him versus increasingly stiffer competition. It’s gonna take at least another year, maybe two, before Davis even attempts a shot at the top dogs. After Gamboa, I don’t think Davis’s team is gonna move him up too quickly. You can’t go from that Gamboa performance to fighting Lomachenko in one or two fights. Then again, Loma might get old in the interim. Lol

... I'll maintain: the Gamboa fight was too an easy contest for Tank... he might have taken more rounds in order to learn things... (actually, Gamboa posed no threat to him, tbh...)

When the fight was announced, I knew it would be bad. But it turned out to be even worse than I thought. Davis didn’t show up; and Gamboa was not only even more shot than I recalled, but injured as well. It was painful to watch, really.

Gamboa is still a live dog in this game, and Davis arguably won every single round even though it was somewhat close. So many posers on this website ready to throw tank under the bus, just give him some time.

I agree sometimes guys take longer to stop someone or hell just cruise a 12round decision But how are u exposed when u score multiple knockdowns and win every round?

Dudes just be waiting to hate.

Besides Pedraza (who is not elite) has he fought anybody?

... OK... Your guy was already back at 130... but they needed a "strong" showcase for Tank... That's how it goes...

... it's not my business -- I don't even follow that kid...
