    This!! Let's see if he fights Garcia but it's a 50/50 fight or at best 60/40 in his favour and I'm thinking they don't even want to take a 40% risk.

    Haney is longer and can box to a decision and Tank doesn't even want/won't go anywhere near Teofimo.

    So in no way is it a 5 man club at lightweight until they all start fighting each other. So far only Teofimo and Loma have tangled.

    When they all see each other like the stars at junior bantamweight then we can start talking about true competition.

      Interestingly enough, so did Canelo before he hit the big time. This is part and parcel when rising for the biggest fights. In the other hand.....GR fights once a year or less

        Jose Pedraza wasn't a smaller guy.

            How much bigger is a 122lber. than a 130lber.?

            Personally, I'd destroy both dwarves in a street fight.

                Don’t be shocked if this is the fight that PBC roll out on PPV for the “fans” another one that no one asked for. And we would be told by fans on here that “I don’t mind that”

                  I like Gary he’s just unknown and fights part time. Gervonta is the truth and unless you a dam fool or blind everyone see that except bitter ass people! My question is that U

                    GRJ just does not seem to like the guy.
                    Yeah it does seem that way?
