Comments Thread For: Gervonta Davis: Spence-Garcia Is 50-50 Fight; Lopez Can Cause Problems For Loma

[SteveM]

I'm a Spence fan and I like Garcia. I got Danny in this fight, 60/40. Spence is NOT well, despite what people say.

You got a link or some inside information or just something you've observed?

heres the difference though....what most of you fail to realize or want to ignore

teo is also with top rank...its easier fight to make...but beyond that...has lopez ever sold 12k in tickets as a headliner? has teo ever headlined cards on showtime? has teo ever been chief support to a floyd ppv that did over 2 mil buys? the answer to those are no.....teo needs a fight like this to fast track him and his profile......tank does not....tank could build his and still make the fight in a year or two and it might be even bigger(provided loma beats teo)...

without the loma fight teo is stuck headlining ho hum cards in front of 3-5k or still being an undercard to fury, crawford or loma....this is teos shot as fast tracking himself to the top

tank is about to do his first ppv at 25...how many top 20 p4p guys today have done a ppv at 25 let alone headlined it?

teo needs the risk more than davis does right now...its that simple...i take nothing away from teo for making this fight...huge nuts and i applaud him...im pulling for him....but he and tanks situation arent really equal

canelo wasnt rushing his career for golovkin and tank isnt rushing his for loma....he can still fight loma next year or the year after that and its totally fine...the only people that will hate on it are those afraid that father time will beat loma...but those same people didnt mind fury delaying the wilder rematch for a year and fury beating up on a 33-34 year old wilder though....

Most of you're analysis is good from a matchmaking pov - except the last bit.

Before the rematch people were asking if Wilder is one of the best ever HWs and 33-34 years old for a HW is not the same as for a LW if you are comparing Loma to Wilder re age. Plus specifically Loma has a lot more mileage on his clock and by common concensus is fighting a weight above his best weight.

About Tank, what you wrote sounds like you are his manager - its all about the financials. Boxing fans want to see the best fights at the right time and fighting Loma when he is in his mid thirties gets much less credit - same as fighting blown up super bantamweights. That fight should not be a ppv it'll be a blow out and we all know it - I haven't read one poster rooting for LSC to win, have you?

[SteveM]

Loma will probably win cuz he’s better. But Jesus, can you imagine if Lopez pulls this off and we somehow get Teo v Tank. That would be a crazy collision of styles and youth.

If Lopez stops Loma he will rightly become an overnight sensation. He'll have tremendous momentum.

Tank, Ryan Garcia will want no part of him and Haney would only step up for a lot of money.

I think Teo would be on such a roll we'd quickly see him positioned to fight the winner of Taylor/Ramirez.

I hear ya bro and i agree 💯 but their is one dude faning for LSC and that is the infamous 1hourRun.
God bless the man that sticks to his guns. lol.

Loma -Lopez is more 50/50 than Mikey/Spence

Just an observation and situational analysis.

Spence seems to have had many things replaced in the head area after that accident. His dental work makes him appear like he's wearing a permanent mouthpiece. Unnatural.

We'll see.

El 'Terremoto' can do it! I'm not going against Gevonta, he is the favorite for good reasons. I feel the NSB is grossly underestimating Leo, I have a habit of rooting for the underdog; their victories are soo much sweeter.

maybe he has an iron jaw now. if so khan is going to crash his car

Danny will test that iron, similar to what happened to Khan.

If spence is not affected by the accident then this fight is 50-50 but the accident is what make this fight a 60-40 in favor of Garcia.
