Gervonta Davis vs GRJ: Who Ya Got?

He’s like 5”4 isn’t he? GRJ could easily make super bantamweight IMO. His has a very small frame for featherweight. He’s has a similar build to Rigo.
Tank would have no respect for his power IMO, I think he’d just walk through him.Comment

I don't think he can easily make 122, especially now. He's been a FW his entire career. GRJ is short but in this fight he wouldn't have to worry about Tank's height or reach advantage.
But again, JoJo is a strong fighter and was a huge FW and GRJ was able to handle his physicality just fine. I would like to see this fight.Comment

I think he could, he’s fighting around his natural weight IMO. A guy with his dimensions should be at bantamweight really. Not saying he could make bantamweight but most guys with his his physical measurements are around that weight.I don't think he can easily make 122, especially now. He's been a FW his entire career.

GRJ reminds me of Hamed at featherweight, in the sense that he’s fighting at his natural weight because he’s good enough to and doesn’t want to have to cut weight.
GRJ also doesn’t like cutting weight as he had a bad experience trying to do so when he was an amateur, think he passed out or something.Comment

Yeah, he had trouble making weight for Lomachenko but I don't think he will have many issues at 130. He's good enough to compete at that weight class. His lack of height like Tank may be his downfall eventually, but I'm still interested in this fight.I think he could, he’s fighting around his natural weight IMO.

GRJ requested the WBC make him mandatory for the Berchelt/Valdez winner. If he gets the winner and wins, then he will prove he is legit at 130 and the Tank fight becomes a big one.Comment

Fortuna is with PBC. Tank at this point will be fighting on PPV. His fight generated good buzz and the PPV should do good numbers. Fortuna probably isn't in his near future. There was a lot of talks of Tank vs Garcia in December before the pandemic and that's a fight I can definitely see happening in 2021. If Tank stays at 130, I want him to fight the winner of Berchelt/Valdez or GRJ. Maybe the winner of Herring/Frampton. Though watching Frampton's breakdown of the Tank/LSC fight, I don't think he is all that interested in getting in the ring with Tank. So that fight probably doesn't happen if he beats Herring.
I wouldn't count out a Lomachenko showdown in 2021 either. Tank has a lot of good options at 130 and 135. Hopefully we get these big match ups with these youngsters.Comment
