Gervonta Davis is the most exciting fighter in the world right now

Post by Ricky »

But let's see him vs a live opponent. And I don't mean Farmer, that's a total mismatch.

Ya, hes a total stud, but his matchmaking pisses the hell out of me, why the run of softies for an obviously great talent whose had 0 problems in the ring??

This is a kid who couldve beaten Loma, yet they f@cking bring up a 3 year winless/inactive Cuellar from 126, then a bunch of crap like nunez, fonseca, and then the hugo ruiz fight shouldnt have been sanctioned

Farmer would be a good start. He could give GTank some good rounds.

Yh. Tank needs rounds and he’s only gonna get that with a live opponent, his size. His best win is still Pedraza. He went few rounds with Fonseca but he was clowning around too much and there was a controversial ended.

He's certainly fun to watch. There are other guys as exciting as him. I definitely hope he and Tevin Farmer get to fight later in the year as both seem to want it.

KO's "artists" are always exciting to watch. Farmer or an experienced Gamboa would be fine for opponents. Gamboa, depending on which one shows up can be dangerous.

He does have a common opponent with Loma, and KO'd him while Loma couldn't. I don't think he beats Loma though.

Certainly one of the most exciting.
Agreed, I'm not straining at the leash to see the Farmer fight, but it's worth a watch.
Gervonta Davis sure is a good finisher though.

Gervonta IS exciting to watch, but when you factor in the caliber of his opposition I dont think you can call him THE most exciting fighter in the world!!

He’s a beast but he’s definitely the sort to loose the plot and go off the rails, anyone see when him and HW Breazele hit one of those punch bag machines? He hit it twice as hard, absolute freakish power

I dont really believe that he hits harder than Breazeale, let alone twice as hard

Those punch things are funny, they did one show where it was 'proved' that some UFC fighter had the force of a speeding truck in his one punch. If that was true hed literally be deacpitating dudes and turning there heads to pulp in the octagon :lol:

Those machines are just for fun, they dont measure force in any meaningful way.
