Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia | Showtime PPV - April 22, 2023

Boxing fans can be the worst.

Ask for big fights. 50-50 fights etc:

When one of them loses..

“He was shite anyway”

Or “he’s a bum” or “he beat a bum”

Well, the poll is quite one sided. I was sure in Davis KO, which you can see here as well.

Good point Ruthless. #5 boxer in a division is often called a bum. But if you're the 500th best lawyer or the 500 best tennis player you're considered pretty damn good. Only in boxing does everyone suck.

Everyone thinks they can box even if they can't or never have, nobody thinks they can play tennis unless they actually can.

I see your point because hell I think I can box when I hit a heavy bag. But anyone in the top 100 can box for real.

It will be interesting to see if Ryan can rebound well from this loss.
It's definitely a setback, but it seems like Ryan can move on and resume being a winning boxer.
He's only 24 and imo He wasn't ko'd in devastating fashion(Knocked out unconscious, for example).
He was caught with a Perfect LiverShot/Punch, and mainly due to being over-anxious.
As he basically stated in the post fight interview, he was starting to get bored and got over-anxious, thus forsaking
A defensive inclined strategy/approach. Ryan didn't seem to be mentally crushed during the post fight interview.
Unsurprisingly, he Did emphatically point out that he plans to move up to 140, because he feels Stronger at that weight, and also still has plenty of Speed at that weight.

Ryan pointed out that he Really wants to fight again, asap. Hopefully in 3 months.
Also he pointed out that he'd like to eventually get a rematch versus Tank. The question is, will Tank eventually move up to 140..? Especially being that he plans to retire at the age of 30.
Obviously this could change in time.
Conor McGregor's appearance in Ryan's locker room and the stuff he was saying to Ryan was a combination of Cool and Funny imo. Alot of commenters on Twitter were jokingly..?.. Assuming that Conor was Drunk or Coked up.
They were making very disrespectful jokes about them both being losers as well. As already pointed out in this thread, Boxing Fans get So Brutally Critical towards the guy that fell short of victory. I don't actually have A Twitter account, but occasionally I Will drop in just to read what these Twitter-Clowns have to say.

It seems to me like Garcia got too cautious after the knockdown, even that he was doing it right in the second round. This same round where Davis took some good beating for around two and a half minutes, so his knockdown isn't winning him the round, but makes it a draw one to me. Anyway, he also was excessively grabbing and ducking too low, even rushing that way, he should've been deducted a point, but a legit victory none the less. Overall, I didn't like the fight.

Wouldn’t mind seeing it again in 3-4 years..

This was a 50/50 fight? The polls don't reflect that.

63-38 on a boxrec forum is still a very even fight.. 50-50 is more an expression than a fact…

Gervonta looked good.
His defence and distance management were very good and his ring intelligence high.
Davis wasn't suckered into throwing the first punch to get a full on counter either was he
He showed professional maturity in not getting baited into that one.
Garcia ran out of ideas when that happened, by the 4-5th his only approach was a jab and uncoordinated attacks which didn't produce much.
To say this was a 50/50 fight isn't true, it was 60/40 65/35 coming in.
No slur on Garcia when I say that but it is what it is, just too early for him maybe.
They both move on, but I want to know where Gervonta is going.

there's no joke to it, it's a totally safe assumption, Conor is one of the most obviously coked-out people in the public eye.

Conor Mac was buzzin

Agree. RG constantantly wanting public approval with his training vids, etc, shows me he wasn't all that confident. Dumb ass wants a rematch at 140 or 147? Tank isn't a big 135. Stfu.
Good win for Tank. Now, fight Shak, see what's really up. Great fight. Winner or loser of Haney vs Loma would be good too.

[Evander]

Too early for Garcia, but for Stevenson ?
I don't know, Gervonta looks priming right now.
