    Well, Leo is taller, throws a ton of punches, great stamina, has an iron chin, more seasoned, better resume and only has one disputed mixed decision loss and people think he's going to get slaughtered...
    Shades of Calzaghe vs Lacy here, people falling in love with one man's power, and we all know how that fight turned out...
    Not many share your sentiments. Comparing Davis to Lacy doesn't show a bright boxing mind. You must be British. Bunce, one of your UK commentators, likened Davis to Lacy before the Walsh fight and he had been eating his words since.

    Leo is skilled and throws a lot of punches, but he's out of his league here. Your take would be right on the money if you were talking about Russell vs Cruz, and saying fight would be even. Leo hasn't been in the ring with anyone like Gervonta.

    Watch the fight and educate yourself. Pay attention to his boxing skills, fuck the power. I hate quick KOs. I'd say he's more skilled than Santa. The power is a God given extra. I'd say Davis hasn't gotten out of 3rd gear in all his fights. I wanna see someone who brings the best out of him. It's not Cruz.

    Davis would probably break his nose in the first round. Not saying it lasts only one round.

          Leo was saved from Rigo for all these years so that this moment can happen. Davis knocks Leo the fk out.

                  Rigo dodged a bullet when Haymon scooped up Leo when he did because Oscar was just about to make that fight. Rigo would have been overwhelmed with volume

                    I am not sure if it is Davis love or Cruz hate, but anyone attaching "mismatch" to this is nuts. I will accept "clear favorite", but mismatch?

                    This is a fun, exciting fight that a focused, motivated Davis should win. But are all of you telling me you would be shocked by Cruz controlling this thing and pulling out the upset? To repeat the thought, that is nuts. This guy is a serious fighter that has a ton of hard fight experience. This is a great main event to welcome fans back to.

                      lmaoooooooooooooooooooo the reason Haymon did that was because Leo didn't want the fight with Rigo and begged Haymon to buy him out of the contract. . He'd have gotten smoked worse than donaire did back then.
