    Lets Be Honest: Teofimo likely beats Tank Davis at 135

    Warning: This my opinion, not here to argue with anybody.
    So, Teofimo, i think, beats Gervonta Davis at 135 and up. To me Gervonta Davis is already too small for 135 and Fimo is a big lightweight. Here are the facts: Tank nor Fimo are one punch knockout artists but have a lot of power, both have solid chins, both are very fast and quick on the trigger/explosive, both are elite level technical boxers (arguable which ones better). To me this fight comes down to size, reach, and who wants it more. To make it easier:
    Reach: Teo
    Height:Teo
    Power: Tank (I think Tank just hits harder, but this is up for grabs)
    Speed:Even (At 130 Tank is lighting fast, but at 135 he's super fast for only about 3 to 4 rounds)
    Chin:Teo (He fought Lomachenko and was eating shots for like 2 to 3 rounds straight)
    Heart:Teo (all I'm going to say is: Teo vs Loma (12th round)
    Overall Stamina: Teo (going 12 rounds with loma is no small achievement)
    Level of competition: Teo (Here me out, Teo fought Commey and Lomachenko, but Tank fought Pedraza, Santa Cruz, Grandpa Gamboa, and Tko'd Jesus Ceular-almost beat Abner Mares. Tank has more fights vs Teo's, i mean, its Loma come on

    i tend to agree. Teo is the better technical boxer and is bigger. I think if Teo fights behind his jab he will impose his will and control Tank . Maybe a late round stoppage for Teo.

      Teofimo is levels above Tank.

      Edge in power, size, skill, heart, pedigree and mental toughness.

      It’s not a think scenario, Lopez despite what idiots on this site may claim is the man at 135 and it’s not even close.

      Also yes you are an idiot
      If you consider any other 135 pounder coming close to Lopez.

          I totally agree! Davis has fought, so far, smaller men with weak jabs (not including leo). Teo has a strong jab that most likely can keep Tank from coming in.

            Let’s be honest Teo is thirsty for a big fight. He knows he’s moving up in a year and these fights go away for the near future. But Ryan and Tank have been going at it for over a year so he’s going to have to wait in line. Or fight Haney if you’re really that dude. Or just rematch Loma.

              Lopez should of really sparked out Lomachenko if? His power was that great.

              Lomachenko for me, is not durable at 135 etc

              Note: You never know Tank Davis has Pacquiao dimensions, maybe he can survive at the higher weights.

                Facts.

                He was pushed to his limit by Leo Santa Cruz, he’s not seeing Takeover at all on any level other than social media popularity.

                  The only guy that can beat Teo right now at 135 is LOma. The only one. I would say maybe Garcia could catch lightning in a bottle with the left hook. But the rest no. Loma fought him pretty close and only fought 5 or 6 rounds. Garcia is big and fast, but his defensive lapses right now would hurt him. In a year or two maybe closer but right now Teo is the better technical boxer. Haney, Please! He hasnt fought anyone and he doesnt throw enough punches. Stevenson also doesnt punch hard enough and is way too defensive. Tank ś only hope is to land something super big early. I am not sure he as the heart and character to walk through fire like that. I also say this about Haney and Stevenson too. Garcia atleast showed some cojones getting up from that shot.

                    Tank is more of a super featherweight
