Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis' PPV Debut Could Come vs. Leo Santa Cruz

[BoxingIsGreat]

Leo will give Tank problems with his height and reach

I think he'd give him some trouble but it'd be because Cruz is pretty skilled and throws a lot of punches. Not because of his physical dimensions, IMO.

Not sure how many hard punches Cruz can take from Davis. I don't mind seeing it at 130.

Because he can make his own name without a Mexican. Davis is the most talked about American boxer now, close to none. I don't think he needs a Mexican to make his name (the prevalent myth). He has already overshadowed Spence during Spence's hiatus.

Best 3 American boxers:

1. Davis
2. Crawford
3. Spence

Then the rest...

Even Floyd needed Oscar to make his name.

But you don't think Tank needs a Mexican?

Why do you hope he doesn't fight a Mexican?

I hope he doesn't fight a Mexican. He can establish himself in 2020 by fighting the best available competition at 130/135 within his own stable, since fights with other promoters don't seem to happen. I don't know who that would be at PBC.

Santa Cruz-Russell would be a more competitive fight.

Davis-Lomachenko
Russell-Cruz

That's a PPV worthy for Cinco de Mayo 2020.

Other than that, Davis should soldier on all 2020, fighting bigger boxers.

What a sh it fight for a PPV. Funny now remembering someone recently saying Davis didn't need a Mexican to draw numbers. I guess that didn't last very long. This fight will do sh it numbers but any numbers it does will be thanks to the Mexicans. lol.

why do people keep saying santa cruz is a 126 pounder? he just fought at 130 and won a decision against a guy who had recently been ko'd twice by mediocre opponents. lol!

Minimum of 4 would be good. I don't care who he fights. 130 or 135.

truer words have never been spoken

Activity is what he needs to stay in shape but he needs a fight to get motivated for.
