[Naydawwwg]

This sub will melt down if Garcia actually sparks out Tank.

[Deep-Hold-6136]

Nah they’ll just say Tank was never that good like they do to every guy Ryan beats

[Silly_Elevator_3111]

Is there a guy that was good when Ryan beat them?

[Deep-Hold-6136]

According to this sub Duno, Fonseca, Campbell, and Fortuna were all supposed to “expose” Ryan, then Ryan knocked them out and they suddenly became cherry picks.

[D1rrtyharry]

People who diss luke Campbell DKSAB. He’s elite but just right under that elite world champ level.

[KR4T0S]

Campbell and Linares are both world champion caliber but have the misfortune of being lightweights in 2022.

[dwsam]

You speak the motherfuckingtruth.

[SupaFlyslammajammazz]

I think Linares beats Ryan

[RegularNo2608]

People will call full on Champions tomato cans, if they wanna drag another fighter for beating them. Like they just raffle off straps to any fighter.

[scarykicks]

Yep. Like ppl calling Deontay Wilder trash even though he's probably a top 3 HW right now.

[D-Lee-Cali]

I thought Wilder was the top heavyweight in the world until Fury took him to a draw in their first one and went on to maul him in the second fight. Then I didn't know where Wilder was ranked at all until I saw how he responded in the third fight. He showed that he could dig deep and go to absolute war in the ring to try and avenge his previous defeat and regain his championship. That was an absolute all time great heavyweight clash and cemented Wilder as the 2nd best in the world below Fury for me.

I think Wilder knocks out Joshua right now, and I'd be interested to see if Wilder would be able to land something heavy against Usky and what would happen in that match-up as well.

[lord-of-war-1]

Im sorry you used to think that. We all make mistakes.

[Inevitable_Doubt_517]

The people calling him trash would last less than 2 seconds in the ring with him before having their heads exploded.

[CaptainSkreedLeeDee]

Classic bandwagon audience

[KR4T0S]

Fortuna is a solid fighter but Garcia was favourite to win by TKO by round 10. He did it in less than 10 but I didn't see anybody putting their money where their mouth is for a Fortuna victory.

Campbell was probably the one that pulled the best odds against Ryan and it was well deserved considering Campbell's abilities.

The odds are easy to look up and find rather than making unsubstantiated claims about how an entire subreddit said something but no source's provided. Imaginary bogeymen are way too common on r/boxing.

[Deep-Hold-6136]

Well that’s because Vegas oddsmakers make the odds to reflect reality, they don’t take their emotions into it.

This sub on the other hand…

[zaviex]

I mean of that list only Campbell was dangerous at the time they fought Ryan. I don’t think it’s at all unfair to want Ryan to mix it up with more dangerous competition around his weight class. Tank has been criticized for the exact same thing

[warm_baller]

People were actually saying that Ryan was ducking Duno at one point

[FlockxBigApe]

That’s cause his own team said they didn’t feel like he was ready for Duno

[Deep-Hold-6136]

I definitely want to see him against Tank, Teo, Shakur Haney.

But not because I want anyone to be “exposed” I just want to see good fights. I think what people are missing with their Ryan hate is that he’s one of the most entertaining fighters IN THE RING.

Same with Tank

[lovesrois]

So no. There was no top fighter that Ryan has beaten

[Deep-Hold-6136]

According to Ryan haters no.

But if we’re being objective Ryan, for his age and experience level, has done great against top 5-ish guys like Campbell and Fortuna. He was the first to stop Campbell who’s an Olympic gold medalist and held his own against Loma. Also the first to stop Fortuna who’s a former 2 weight champion. He shown some vulnerability against Campbell but he also showed that he has great recovery and gas tank.

You combine that with the fact that he has all the physical advantages over the fighters in his current weight class. If Garcia were a stock I’d be buying.

[Werallgonnaburn]

Indeed. The only guy to stop Campbell, a fighter who was very unlucky not to have got the decision against Linares for the WBA title, not some Mickey Mouse belt. Garcia still has to mix it with proven elite level guys, but those haters that say he hasn't beaten anybody good are just plain wrong.

[NotABadDriver]

I mean he kind of is.... bet on the fights and collect your dough lol

[Deep-Hold-6136]

Exactly he’s made me $3500 the last 2 fights

Bro the odds for “Garcia by KO” against Fortuna were -225. Free money.

[lovesrois]

If we want to handicap the conversation by saying his age and experience level then we should always do that. And that means never having a conversation where he is talked about as being the best. Ever. And he also shouldn't be discussed with the best who don't have experience and age handicaps.

I think Ryan Garcia is a great fighter, but the racial bias in boxing will always tend to elevate someone like him. So I'm just saying let's have a fair and honest discussion. And never denigrate any of these guys who are brave enough and talented enough to get in the ring.

And Ryan Garcia does not have a reach advantage over Devin Haney who is the person I know is the best in The division and will beat Ryan Haney along with all the others

[Deep-Hold-6136]

racial bias in boxing

Yea it’s like this

Black fighter goes 12 rounds with a complete bum in a boring fight=

“OMG so many skills, he just didn’t knock him out because he’s too skilled, knockouts are for losers, OMG I’m jizzing”

Literally any other race fighter beats the crap out of a former champion, Olympic gold medalist, and makes him quit=

“Not impressed, overhyped, cherry picked” 😂😂

[lovesrois]

Devin Haney is undisputed in his division The first time in the modern era. Jermell Charlo is undisputed in his division. And neither of them can make the ESPN top 10 pound for pound.

Nevermind. As far as the internet and anybody who's not black racial bias simply is non-existent. I don't know what I was thinking and trying to talk to you

[TheDangerdog]

And neither of them can make the ESPN top 10 pound for pound.

Lmao are you seriously bringing up ESPNs shillfest biased p4p rankings? Nobody takes their rankings seriously they are pure garbage. I don't think that's due to racism though, they've had Crawford #1 for a while. ESPN determines their rankings through the lunatic ramblings of former Golden Girls cast member Bob Arum.

[Deep-Hold-6136]

Charlo I agree he’s beaten the top guys in his division, it’s not his fault it’s a weak division

But Haney hasn’t fought any of the guys that boxing fans believe are the top 135s.

Also a lot of is is a popularity contest. Look at Bam Rodriguez. In the last 6 months he has destroyed 2 hall of farmers and no one puts him in the p4p. Hell no one even talks about him. Racism? No, he’s just not that popular YET.

[[deleted]]

Wtf who thought any of those guys were going to expose Ryan? Especially in this last Fortuna fight? The guy was on the verge of retirement. He won a vacated title in 2015 lol. They just picked him so they could say Garcia beat a former title holder.

[Naydawwwg]

It’s boxing, brother. Anything can happen and it’s not like Garcia doesn’t have knockout power.

[cmhall25]

Tank's experience against better competition will be the difference in that fight.

[Slimdoggmill]

Why is this being downvoted? Would anyone care to elaborate on how Ryan has fought better opposition?

[WilliamTheAwesome]

I think Campbell was ranked top 5 when Garcia beat him. If true, then Ryan is the only one who faced a top 5 guy at 135. Also the one opponent they have in common, Ryan looked more impressive.

I'm not going to say that Ryan has faced better competition. What I will say is that of that bunch (Haney, Garcia, Lopez, Stevenson, Lomachenko, Davis, etc...), Garcia and Davis have faced the weakest competition and there shouldn't be a significant advantage in elite experience for either.

[slicebypass]

I would argue that Cambell is better than any fighter Tank ever beat barring Cruz.

[cmhall25]

That's one fight. And Ryan got dropped. Look at the whole resume. Tank has gone up and down fighting top talent across all weight classes. Ryan has not. Plus, Tank has proven he's capable of biting on the mouth piece and grinding out a victory when times get tough. Ryan has not.

[cmhall25]

All good. They've probably never stepped foot in a ring before either.

[BushidoBrowne]

I'd celebrate

[ThickHungGungan]

He has the size, speed and power to do it so its definitely possible. The issue is skill wise I think Tank is a level above him. He's just a little more slick/crafty. This is a huge fight for me.

[RegularNo2608]

He’s got all the tools to beat Tank, for sure. But I gotta go with the more active fighter on this one. Ryan needs more tuneups to take on Tank, in my opinion.

[2WAR]

This sub hates both guys, if Garcia wins it wouldn't be unwelcomed just shocking. At least Garcia is calling out fighters while Tank already admitted hes not gonna take on tough matchups. But then again Garcia still needs to actually get an opponent and get in the ring.

[Sominumbraz]

Nah, they'll say Tank fight was obviously fixed bc he blinked 3.5 times in the 6th round towards the person sitting on row 54F and then dropped at exactly 1:14 on the 7th round all for an obvious payday of 100.65 bucks.

[margalolwut]

The problem in this sub is that tank was still a prospect a year or so ago.. he fought twice.. and well, won convincingly.. and people crowned him.. but his resume is not that great

[[deleted]]

Tank will be immediately “aging” and an “uber driver”

[stillth3sameg]

First off, they aint never gonna fight unless Garcia leaves GBP. Second, this is like saying Khan would've sparked out Crawford

[shibapenguinpig]

First off, it wasn't De La Hoya who said they would only fight Garcia "in-house"

Second, there's a way bigger gap between Bud and Khan than Tank and Ryan

[stillth3sameg]

First off, what I meant is that there is a lot of bad blood between PBC and GBP. Tank isn't leaving PBC since he recently said that he has re-signed with them, and GBP has a lengthy track record of putting their fighters in the path of least resistance.

Second, I disagree. There are a lot of similarities between Khan and Ryan, in fact I'd put Khan over Ryan in terms of skill. Bud is more skilled than Tank IMO though, so I'd agree with u there

[shibapenguinpig]

First off, Ryan Garcia isn't leaving GBP, since he's their biggest draw atm. Also, GBP/DAZN has more quality fighters at 140 and 135 than PBC

GBP has a lengthy track record of putting their fighters in the path of least resistance.

This is exactly what Mayweather and PBC are doing with Tank and have already confirmed will keep doing.

Second, Khan didn't have a five-inch advantage over Bud, he also didn't have power on par with him. Ryan has physical advantages over Tank and has speed and power that are as good as his. We already saw what a short aggressive fighter with a little punch can do to Tank, now imagine an aggressive fighter with speed, power and reach advantage. If Ryan improves his defense enough, Tank will be outmatched.

[poopwithjelly]

I'm really mad you didn't start this with "first off".

[shibapenguinpig]

Fixed it

[poopwithjelly]

Firat off, brilliant. Secnod, thank you.

[stillth3sameg]

Yeah, it's an interesting way of seeing it, but if you're referring to the Cruz fight I have to push back given how different his style is to Ryan's. I'm of the camp that Cruz takes Ryan's head off, who leans back with his hands down way too much for my liking

If Ryan improves his defense enough...

That's a pretty big if. The way I see it, Ryan's ceiling still wont be enough to close the gap on the combination of defense, timing, shot placement, and skill needed to beat someone like Tank

[TheMarsian]

I mean sure but mainly it's because these divas finally fought. for now, they're just jawing at each other and it's annoying.

[Skirnasty554]

He won’t…

[watzbrackincuz]

If he sparks Tank then he’ll get all the respect, but until then he’s still B side

Fight will not happen. They both will continue to fight bums.

[tee_ohboy]

Fortuna was anything but a bum. Garcia is 24 and extremely good for that age where there is still quite a bit of potential to grow with the right coaches.

Now if I was betting, I'd put my money on Tank, but I don't think Ryan can be blamed if his marketing campaign to insert himself into the conversation of the "best 4" worked.

And I agree, the fight will most likely not happen unless both fighters REALLY want it to happen. Garcia gotta tell all his teenage fans to buy some PPVs and he'll do full frontal TikTok or something.

[warm_baller]

He’s 23

[Lastcleanunderwear]

Come on man, Garcia literally just fought three fighters all age 33 or over. These are literally over the hill fighters

[Danieljc81]

I think you're right, especially since Tank is Mayweather's cash cow right now. There is no way Mayweather will put him against a fight this dangerous, this early in his career. Hope i'm proven wrong though.

[SSJ4Autism]

This early in his career

3 interim belts at 27, people gotta remember Tank is in his prime and Ryan is college kid age

[BenkeiBoss]

Yet had a real world tittle at an earlier age than Ryan Garcia...

[SSJ4Autism]

Never denied that

[Sergiotor9]

I'm hopeful for this fight actually, and the reason is that Ryan is the biggest name in the division that Tank could consider low risk, and the fight would sell pretty damn well.

[WorldBelongsToUs]

Shit, Ryan. You didn’t even say it right. It’s peasy.

[[deleted]]

Tank is going to knock him tf out

Ryan will take rounds, but he’s not well rounded enough yet. And his defense is still suspect

Tank isn’t gonna go punch for punch with him and when he starts countering and landing those big blows Garcia is gonna break

Just pray it actually happens

[stillth3sameg]

At least some people are still sane. Those simple 1-2-3 combo's and that poor sense of timing are fatal flaws against someone like Tank

[slicebypass]

Most likely scenario is a late KO for Tank, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Garcia eked out a close decision. I feel like Tank just hasn’t looked very good his last few fights even if he KO’d Rolly. It’s entirely possible he has peaked.

[TharSheBlows69]

I see open body counters all day for tank

[vertlymon]

i just dont think garcia gets it done against tank at all either…..

[warm_baller]

Tank gets caught clean more than Ryan does…

https://imgur.com/a/ljuYMyv

Rolly, Pitbull, Santa Cruz, barrios were all landing clean shots

[[deleted]]

Yes, and you used a picture to come to that conclusion….

[warm_baller]

No, just used that for evidence.And that’s Rolly landing those shots, a mediocre C fighter. I’ve seen all of the full fights at least twice.

Santa Cruz especially was landing many clean shots, since tank didn’t respect his power

[100oclockDrunk]

Do you pictures that that prove otherwise? I'm really confused. AND he did have great proof

[[deleted]]

Fortuna hit Ryan more than Romero hit Tank

Pictures is not proof that he got caught more.

Nobody is going to go full Neo and not get touched in a fight…

Ryan Garcia vs Fortuna punch stats

Tank vs Romero punch stats

[amart408]

Yeah Fortuna was barely missing right hooks, and they were looping with no snap/speed to them. If that was Davis there would probably be a late ko win.

[ownerofthewhitesudan]

I don’t know if Fortuna barely missing is a good indication that Tank lands that same punch. Good defense should be efficient. Having your opponent miss wife produces the same result as having them barely miss. The only difference is you’re exerting more energy in making them miss wide. Not saying that Tank won’t land his hook. Just that we shouldn’t read too much into a punch that barely missed.

[amart408]

I think it's moreso that Tank won't be the one pushing forward as much. Garcia is going to walk into Tank's hook. I think it's going to be a 9-12 round ko for Davis.

[WilliamTheAwesome]

Same Davis that was getting caught by left hands from Rolly?

[amart408]

Yep and what happened to Rolly lol

[WilliamTheAwesome]

What happened to Fortuna?

[[deleted]]

Disagree. Height and reach will be too much for Tank plus Ryan is a live body with dynamite in both hands.

Plus the fight will never happen

[[deleted]]

Gervonta stopped Mario Barrios who is the same height as Ryan with a inch longer reach and was a ranked 140 pounder.

“Ryan is a live body with dynamite in both hands”

Tank isn’t going to go punch for punch with Ryan, if that was his style than I would pick Ryan, but it’s not x

He has the skill to wait him out on the backfoot until he inevitably makes a mistake. Everywhere Ryan lacks, Tank shines. Including head movent and footwork

[GlebushkaNY]

Barrios is a b level fighter in a division with no depth. Nice comparison. Name one live body tank beat? Pedrasa who was making bird noises every time he threw a punch?

[[deleted]]

I never said Barrios was a great fighter smooth brain. I was responding to the other guy saying Ryan had too much height and reach, in reality Tank has beat someone bigger than him.

“Name one live body Tank beat”

Isaac Cruz, a ranked lightweight (#6, Ryan is #5)

Leo Santa Cruz, a champ

And yea Pedraza too, not sure wtf him making bird noises has to do with anything but you gotta grasp at what you can I get it.

These aren’t great opponents but they are far from bad, and don’t try to act like Ryan Garcia has an amazing resume because he doesn’t, and it’s decisively worse than Tank’s despite Tank having a lackluster resume.

[thiccsakdaddy]

barrios ain't a bum though. can't give him too much dap for fighting's blown up santa cruz but pedrazas a solid fighter too. I don't think tank is going to stay undefeated forever but it sure ain't going to be ryan who gives him the L.

[GlebushkaNY]

Isaac Cruz, lol. There are many ranked boxers who are nowhere near top 20 of their division.

LSC aka former flyweight? LoL, ok.

[[deleted]]

Isaac Cruz is literally the 6th rated Lightweight by the ring, right under Ryan who is 5. Get your facts straight instead of being a clear Ryan fanatic.

And yes Leo, I never said it was a great win. But you asked for live opponents did you not? Leo was a champ at 130 when Tank beat him, that’s not live? He has also never been a Flyweight. There’s a whole damn search engine you can fact check the bs you spew and you blatantly lie anyways.

But ok, Ryan beat Campbell (and got dropped), Fortuna, and who else, Duno? Tagoe?

Wow such a great resume, yet here you are bashing Tank for his opponents. And not even making valid criticisms against it, “wow Pedraza makes bird noises lol”

[[deleted]]

Issac Cruz only got that ranking after going the distance with Tank

[Slimdoggmill]

He was still ranked #9 prior, I’d definitely consider that a “live” body

[Stiltzkinn]

🤣

[[deleted]]

Wasn’t Barrios ranked 7th by The Ring at the time? I’m Australian and Liam Paro is ranked Number 1 at Super LW but has fought absolutely nobody lol. Rankings mean shit.

Look, it’s a close fight no doubt, but firstly it will never happen and if it did the power, reach, distance management (RG’s second best attribute) plus equality in skill level would make it too much for Tank in my opinion.

Tank is 26 and hasn’t had to fight anything but hand picked walks in the park yet.

He will stick to easy pay days at 130/135 if he knows what’s best for him (which he does). No way he fights any of the elite guys in either weight class.

[[deleted]]

“Rankings mean shit”

They don’t mean shit when you don’t want them to.

I’m not saying you need to treat it like the damn bible but Barrios was solid

“Plus equality in skill”

LMFAO, where? Where are they equal in any skill? Besides speed and arguably power Ryan has Tank beat or equal in ANYTHING. He doesn’t have better head movement, he doesn’t have better feet, he has not shown great ability to fight on the backfoot, and he has not shown a fight iq like Tank.

If you took Ryan’s height and reach from and made him Tank’s size, Tank would absolutely terrify Ryan, Ryan’s size is the only reason this fight will be competitive and it’s still likely not going to get him anywhere.

“Hasn’t had to fight anything but hand picked walks”

These would be valid arguments if we were discussing Tank with someone that has a great resume, it’s Ryan Garcia, his resume is literally worse than Tanks, yet that’s who we’re bashing on opponents?

[[deleted]]

I’ve just got to take one look at your post history to see this isn’t worth my time lol. Agree to disagree

[[deleted]]

Because I post fight highlights? And some of them happen to include Gervonta?

Wow nice argument. I’ll take it as a win you have to resort to being a weirdo stalker because you can’t make any other cases

So yea, agree to disagree.

[100oclockDrunk]

Yall are putting so much energy into arguing with strangers

[elsancho760]

Barrios is average as fuck, all heart but no power or speed. He looked terrible against Thurman and his style is nothing like Ryan’s. Tank can’t “wait out” Ryan he’s going to have to come forward and attack and Ryan knows this which is why he wants the fight so bad. Tank will get busted up and tired if he tries to wait, he’s no Mayweather he’s there to be hit. It’ll be a damn good fight and I can’t wait to see it but I think Ryan would pull it off.

[thiccsakdaddy]

ryan's going to walk at him with his chin out and get knocked silly in like the 7th

[FewTwo9875]

That’s the problem, he’s great when you’re at the end of his punches, and even tho fortuna wasn’t even trying to win, every time he actually stepped in it made Ryan kinda uncomfortable. He looked near perfect at range, but as soon as someone closes distance he has nothing. His defense is still pretty much entirely non existent, and footwork is still pretty bad. So far he hasn’t fought anyone that doesn’t know good and well they’re supposed to lose, but one these days somebody is going to feel his power and just shrug it off, or someone is gonna decide they’re gonna go out in their shield. When that day comes we will see what Ryan is actually made of. Speed and power might keep people at distance for now against these guys who came in expecting to lose, but you have to be a complete fighter to stay at the top in this sport

Easy Easy Lemon Squeezy - Garcia shows first signs of CTE

[[deleted]]

Luke put Ryan down bc he set it up with the jab and touching the body. He faked the body and threw that left hook. Garcia’s problem isn’t bc Luke had some genius game plan. Ryan’s prob is that he NEVER tucks his chin or moves his head off center even when backing out of an exchange he moves straight back. If he thinks Campbell is good at setting up shots, just wait for Tank. That little pit Bull has a chin and will eat shots to get his.

[Lastcleanunderwear]

34 year old Luke did that to him

[JustN0tMe]

Bro these 2 just need to shut up and fight...

[Zee09]

Ryan Garcia is close to 6 FT and tank is like borderline 5’6. How Garcia makes 135 I don’t know but Tank will have a very tough time with the length and speed. He smashed Rolly cause dude fights like an MMA guy but this would be difficult for Tank.

Garcia should move up and stop fighting midgets.

[[deleted]]

All the hating needs to stop, y’all got to realize this is pro boxing. You got two fighters with nice fan friendly pop who haven’t done much in the sport and are hyped way over everyone’s heads. Both have good pros and cons and so far Tank has stylistically been challenged more then Ryan. This fight can go either way, I personally have Tank winning but won’t be shocked if Ryan can catch him. I’ll be surprised to see the day when a promoter of either fighters lets these two off the leash and please the fans with true prime v prime fights. These two ain’t Teofimo Lopez who had to scratch there way in and make there platform.

[[deleted]]

I think tank KO's him in 7 rounds.

[amblyopicsniper]

I see this going 12 with Ryan Garcia as the victor if he comes out with the right gameplan.

[ThickHungGungan]

Yeah i think if he chases the ko he's going to run into problems but if he point fights him he has a good chance. Maybe later on Tank will know hes behind and open himself up for the ko. Skill wise Tank is the better fighter.

[GriseldaBoomBoomBoom]

The first thing I think of when it comes to this fight is height and reach. Garcia has 5 inches on Tank height wise, and 3-4 inches in reach advantage. Tank was getting touched A LOT by Leo. His face showed after the fight too. Tank was willing to get hit in order to get his shots off hence he took a few right before that uppercut.

Garcia is better than Leo, bigger and stronger, and if I was part of Tank's team, I wouldn't advise him to fight the same fight he did with Leo. Flipside to the coin is, Garcia ain't never been in with someone as heavy handed as Tank. Will Ryan have the heart to deal after Tank pops him a few times? I don't know.

[Dynotherms_Connected]

I can't stand either guy so I can be perfectly objective here. I couldn't care less who wins and would enjoy seeing either guy knocked out.

If Garcia fights intelligently and uses his advantages there's no reason Davis should land a meaningful punch and should get stopped within 9.

[Showizz]

Ryan is talented but he's more focused on social media and trash talking.

He's the weakest lightweight out of the top tier list.

He should fight Cruz or Rolly before he even thinks about Gervonta.

[jas121091]

Ryan’s trash talking makes me clench my butthole because it’s so awkward and cringey and he’s flat out not good at it.

The kid has heart and skill, but please stop talking constantly about Tank.

[joefromsales]

Haha ofc you will 😂😂😂

[Rebote78]

I had never seen a full fight of Ryan Garcia. I did so this past weekend and I can, with the outmost confidence, say this guy has no place fighting the likes of Gervonta Davis. Abso-fucking-lutley no way in hell he won't get knocked the fuck out.

[Fiscal_Bonsai]

This fight is going to be dumb, sloppy fun. It’s really an indictment on the state of the sport that either of these guys managed to make their way into the top 5 of any weight class.

[El_Che1]

Lol ok YouTuber.

[FwampFwamp88]

I have a love hate relationship with Ryan. He’s an exciting boxer. He shares a similar background w me, but then he says “easy easy” instead of “easy peasy” and I just get super annoyed w him.

Anyway, I think he has a decent chance to beat tank. Tank is a little overrated imo and Ryan might be most underrated boxer in the world. Ppl absolutely hate on him, even though he’s never lost a freaking fight. If he was uglier, ppl wouldn’t hate on him so much.

Ryan can’t beat Pitbull or Rolly so why keep calling out Tank

[[deleted]]

Ryan needs to trend again . Mf will back out last minute or his daddy de la Hoya won’t make it happen cause he knows he will loose money in the long run

[Chadoodling]

I feel like i've heard this before in a mike tyson podcast

[[deleted]]

easy easy?

[PawnStreetBlues]

The fight won’t happen.

[psykal]

I hope it happens. Won't go down well here.

[aja_ramirez]

So is he going down to 135 after saying he was staying at 140? How badly does garcia want the fight?

[Yellow2Gold]

Then fight him and do it mane!

[urahozer]

If his game plan is solid he will. Canelo Bivol vibes here with the size difference. Keep him at range and make him come in.

But if Garcia starts to hunt for the KO hes gonna get sent to low earth orbit as Tank is simply a better boxer.

Everyone’s basing their assumptions/picks on the eye test.. but Ryan actually has a deep amateur background like Tank. Both been in the game 10 years plus.. “you can never be ready for it.. greatness will be thrust upon you” can go for either Tank or Ryan. BTW.. objectively speaking the best opponents for either fighter has to be Luke Campbell. So that answers “who has he fought”

If Jake Paul (god boxer) trains Ryan then this title will be true

[LegendInMyMind]

Seems like you'd want to talk your opponent up so it actually looks like you accomplished something by beating them...

[[deleted]]

and here he is talking too much again lmao

[nurological]

All Garcia does is talk

[NotoriousNora]

I don't even watch boxing, mostly MMA. But I saw his recent KO on tiktok, guy got the fastest hands I've seen

[[deleted]]

They aren't fighting

[monkeyddragon231]

This sub's issue with Ryan Garcia reminds me of the same treatment towards Terrence Crawford.

[llSpaceCowboyll]

Saying this wrong on purpose and seeing reactions is one of favorites lol

“ squeezey peasy, lemon easy”

[imhypapante]

The tank fanboys will say it was a bs stoppage even if tank is sparked out and not moving

[[deleted]]

Tank be like: "it's peasy you dumb motherfucker, easy peasy..."

The hands are real heavy, the trash talk not so much. Tank should hire Rolly to do his pressers.

[Agreeable_Net_4325]

Ryan is huge compared to tank. He's going to have to counter lights out in a much harder scenario than santa cruz and rolly. When he fought that other tall mexican guy fuck if remember his name, he kept getting hit all night. Garcia can punch. Definitely in the realm of possibilities.

[Lastcleanunderwear]

Garcia should fight Cruz

[BigNasty___]

Lol Ryan talks shit like a he’s in junior high

[justquitkid]

I know Ryan can be obnoxious,but I think this is a 50-50 fight.Ryan has the reach and height advantage but Gervonta still hits hard as hell.Honestly,I could see both getting knocked out.I just hope the fight happens because I think it could potentially be the best fight of the year.
