I read this in a boxing scene article Gervonta Davis message to Lomachenko:
"Just keep winning and someday we will get in there. We will get in there for sure." Davis said.

Tanks side already said at various points both that they are waiting loma out and that lomas not a big enough draw to fight

Tank would beat him if they fought. It boggles me that someone so talented is being babied like Tank has with his run of crap opposition after impressively winning the belt

I don't think Tank thinks he beat Loma right now or the fight would happen, probably wait until they see Loma slipping and then say hey lets fight...

Now Loma will handle Tank without big problems which is why this is just publicity talk from Davis.

Not in his or your wildest dreams. Someone like prograis would handle loma without big problems. Loma would definitely push tank in a losing effort.

Tank beats Loma. Though it's absolutely true Tank's side have wanted nothing to do with that fight, bringing up Loma not being big enough a draw and also admitting to waiting him out. They are pretty open about it.

Loma is on a different level. I don't see Davis ever getting there. As young as he is, maybe if they wait for several years for Loma to lose all the spring in his step they could beat him, but somebody else will have beaten Tank by then so it won't be the fight it is now regardless.

I normally don't accuse any fighters of "ducking" but it's clear that Tank wants no part of Loma just like Thurman wanted no part of Spence.

Exactly. There are levels in boxing, and Davis is not on the top level and there is no guarantee that he will ever be.

He strikes me as the next in the mold of Judah and Broner still. Tremendous natural talent, lack of discipline, and over reliance on those natural talents.

There's no indication so far that his performances dont match his talent

Who he's beating is one indication. The fact that I've seen him real fat in between fights is very Broner-ish too. Broner was seen as a real badass prior to Maidana. Maybe not seen quite as highly as Tank is now, but I see a lot of similarities.

Styles make fights. Some guys are attackers. Some guys are boxers. Attackers often beat people in more spectacular fashion. Boxers often beat MORE people.
