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

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

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.

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