Tank is no Houdini either, he gets tagged repeatedly, bad stamina, fighting in spots...

Garcia can get knocked out by Davis but he can also counter Davis lunging punches and stop him, he can play on his height and reach advantage there, it would be Tank who has to pass his danger zone to get some shots in not him.

It’s kind of a who knocks out who first fight, defense isn’t their strength, really. Would be surprised if it’d go 12, the later it goes the more it favors Garcia though due to Tank’s stamina problems.

Only guy that separated himself this far is Lopez because he beat Loma but even Lopez showed weakness earlier his career, can’t confidently say that any of these guys are big favorites over the others.

I like Haney the best but we still have to see his next step up which will probably come in the face of Fortuna.

I think Tank showed his stamina ain't that bad/his boxing improved when he knocked out Leo. LSC got the firefight he wanted, and by the final round, Gervonta was looking way fresher than he was.

I like Tank as a fighter but he has a lot of jealousy in his heart for Devin. shyt kind of sickening because Dev don’t even disrespect dude like that. All he wanted to do was fight him and this nikka started acting bytch made and making threats. Doing everything but agreeing to fight. Some sucka shyt. All because Floyd fukk with the youngin more than Tank because he sees Dev loves the sport and lives it. Floyd sees more of himself in Dev than Tank and that shyt hurt his heart.

To see Tank hate on another brotha like this every chance he get is lame af. Makes me not want to support dude.

Fair enough, still it only went 6, he gassed pretty bad against Gamboa, not impossible to improve it just needs consistent work. Canelo's stamina problems seem tobe the thing of the past now but he worked a few years for it, maybe it's just the effect that he didn't have to cut so much weight and more comfortable at 168 cause he didn't have any problems in terms of discipline between fights.

the tank from the Gamboa fight N the tank from the LSC fight were two different guys breh... it’s clear as day to see ... the Gamboa tank could’ve gotten stopped by LSC :yeshrug:

With Tank, it looks to be a discipline thing for sure. He looked sloppy against Gamboa after missing weight at a higher weight limit, but looked solid against Santa Cruz while making weight down at 130.:mindblown::heh:

listening this on my phone
  • Ryan, Tank, and Teo ducking him
  • whupped Floyd ass
  • whupped Teo ass
  • got beat by tank at 13 yr old but whupped his ass bad at 18
made some points @reservoirdogs just made about tank getting touched and us never seeing how Tank looks if his power can't affect the opponent
the point of this interview is for him to hype himself but he talking real confident and it's already looking like dudes trying ice him out :patrice: wanna see one of these dudes accept a bout with him. garcia bout to ignore that mandatory worse than shawn porter

We have CHAMPIONS in Boxing getting ducked by mandatory challengers in 2020/2021...just let that sink in. When is it ok for a dude to win mandatory status (Ryan Garcia) and say "well idk maybe I could fight the champion next we'll see"...HUH?!?! nikka go get the strap and then go beat Tank, tf is you talking bout. You ain't even became a champion at any division yet and you talking like you above the belts. We have to put the pressure on all these dudes this year.
