I would predict that he'd stop Linares in 1

Well this version of tank took 12 to stop 38 year old Gamboa, and tank could hardly lift his arms in the 11th round..

I am sure tank has some good performances in him, but this wasn't one of them..

Possible, but if he don't get him early it gets a little dicey.

Imagine if tank went life and death with Linares? He'd be a super bum.

I figure he would have difficulties with Linares.

Perhaps, I'd be surprised if Linares lasted 3 RDS. Point remains the same, lomagod can do no wrong and it seems for many tank can do no right.

Obviously, he looked gassed after some of his bigger rounds (six and ten) so Tank needs to improve his training, otherwise this can cost him in future bouts.

If tank was fighting, Loma, Haney, Lopez, Commey, Campbell, tonight and they got past the third round tank would have been KO'd by all those fighters, Tank didn't look to be in good shape tonight..

The same Commey who got ko'd in 2 by Teomifo?

Loma may do plenty of wrong in April. It may be too early for Lopez, but he's certainly a dangerous young guy, and he may well knock him off the throne right now. I look forward to that one.

Davis did what he was supposed to do ... wondering who will be his next oponent

Me too, though I don't see loma on any throne.

I hope it is the Fighter with the Crazy Ring Entrances, https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/727039
1. There is a Storyline he is Lomachenko's Brother in Law and Olympic Teammate (Olympic Silver Medalist)
2. He is Undefeated (Only 12-0 but as you see, they fast tracked him from his first Pro Fight)
3. He called out Gervonta Davis and Teofimo Lopez after his last fight, He is ranked #4 by the WBO
4. He would be the First Legitimate 135 pounder that Davis has fought
5. His entrances will get people talking, even if the Fight turns out to be a Dud, But they say he can fight.
6. Usyk and Gvozdyk seem to be ringside for all his fights, and if he fights Tank, Lomachenko will almost certainly be there, which will get fans talking, that a Tank VS Lomachenko fight is near, wether it is or not.
7. Most of the other Top lightweights are busy, Ryan Garcia has a tuneup in February and maybe Linares in May, Haney is injured and will fight the Luke Campbell VS Fortuna winner when he returns, Teofimo Lopez has Lomachenko in Probably April.

When’s the last time Davis went past 7-8 rounds? He was shattered.

He had never seen the 12th rd before today.

He would have won via Dec anyway, but he just kept his KO streak alive.

Anyone else reckon Reiss should have let it go on til the final bell?

Whatever happened to Uzcategui ?

The towel was in.

Anyway, wierd performance by Tank, he's a great fighter and in the p4p mix, but his punch output was shocking. He also moved up weight and missed it. I suspect Malignaggi was right that he didn't take camp seriously for this one.

Yeh, and once he gets that big fight, he’s gonna smash it.

He hasn't carried that much of his power if he went 12 rounds against "the shell of himself" one legged opponent.

The majority of comments is not realistic. Davis was solid, very solid. He lost one round, maybe two. Did you expected victory by 1 round KO ? Gamboa has passed his prime, LW is not his natural weight division, surely, but during his prime he has been one of the best fighters (below the LWW) I have seen in the last decade.

Yes a lot of people on social media expected a early to mid round stoppage. Nobody expected a decision especially to one leg fighter. The criticism is warranted with that type of hype similar to Lopez vs Nakatani.

Agree. Too bad Gamboa is past his prime. He was beast once upon a time.
