I would be shocked if it happened, especially in just 2 months.

If true, would be a HUGE fight, but I’m surprised they won’t push it all the way to September if it actually goes down.

The June 17th rumors started last month. If it’s in fact true, it’s closer to 3 than 2. I guess we will see either way. The mega fight of 2023. You’ll have sports fans and boxing casuals throwing parties for that one.

It’ll be the biggest fight since Mayweather Pacquiao.

Banged Out

It was bound to happen eventually. And it did this past weekend at the Copper Box Arena in London, Joe Joyce was stopped via technical knockout in six rounds by Zhilei Zhang. From the very beginning of this fight he couldn't cope with Zhang's power, and over time his right eye was swollen shut...

Max is a significantly better Boxing analyst than SAS, but in this instance he’s right.

Tonight’s the night! Who ya got? I can’t decide. If Ryan can stick to a game plan for all 12 rounds and use his length, I like Ryan. But, can he do it for 12 rounds?

The ones who are picking Tank by KO feel that Ryan will be up on the cards when he goes down.

Tank starts slow so ryan might be up early if he works the jab and use his length, i got it ending similar to the rolly fight tho. Don’t like that ryan keeps his chin up and is so stationary but his hands are fast as **** so he could catch tank coming in but i give that a 20% chance so tank ko 6th round
 
Its cool to see a fight with young stars get this much hype, im looking forward to seeing the fight night atmosphere.

my thoughts on Tank Davis-Ryan Garcia, and my official prediction...

Winner Take All

Don't believe for one second that Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia will be wagering their full purses this Saturday night as they clash in what is the biggest event of the boxing calendar in the first half of 2023 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Personally, I don't think boxers should engage...

I remember Terry Norris when he KO’d Joe Gatti & when he had that crazy trilogy with Luis Santana because he kept getting DQ’d lol

But nobody had raw pure power like Julian Hawk Jackson. That man had absolute DYNAMITE in his fists!

He would generate so much power from his hips when he threw that right hook, he’d be knocking dudes out cold! They was sleep before they hit the ground smh... He was the Sonny Liston of Middleweight.

My pops used to call him “The Tree Chopper”, because when he would KO boxers they would fall like a tree being cut down.

Everyone seems to be picking Tank.
But Garcia is the only boxer I’ve seen say yes to everything that Tank’s side has requested.
Garcia has that look like he absolutely 100 percent knows he’s gonna win no matter what you put in front of him.
Tank’s been more tested. But Ryan has something I haven’t seen since Roy Jones and that’s speed and accuracy.
Watching Garcia is like watching an illusion. You have to rewind it sometimes to see how tf did he knock the guy out.
When he hit Campbell with that body shot you didn’t t see it. Fck, you didn’t even hear it.
You just saw dude go down.
But the rewind you saw a devastating body shot.

I’ve never seen a side that fast that you can’t tell how he knocked a dude out.

But tank is just a very savvy boxer with a too many tools to deal with.

It’s a toss up that I would stay away from. But if you got extra count to burn. Put it on Garcia as the underdog.

If it goes past 7 rounds it’s all Garcia imo. Tank has a history of slowing down and his early punching count is low but he backs it up with accuracy.
If he has to throw a lot of punches I think he gets gassed and Garcia is too accurate for a slower shorter boxer.

I just don’t see tank letting garcia last that long.

Grabbed this seat 5 hours ago here at MGM. (Here in AZ) This place is packed. They’re not even letting anyone else in the sportsbook. They’ve reached full capacity.
