Good prep for Ryan vs the next southpaw on his hit list. Meanwhile they put Davis in a random fight.

I'm always right in regards to boxing. I am literally never wrong about anything I say.

The only time i've been wrong this year was picking Montana Love vs Spark to go past 9.5 rounds, but who can predict someone getting thrown out the ring?

Refusal to engage means Ryan couldn't cut off the ring. That was an old Togoe too. Ryan has one of those, come hither, offenses.

I don’t expect Mercito Gesta to be anything but fodder for Garcia BUT if he can topple Garcia …. I just want the 135/140/147 divisions to give us meaningful fights.

This is a proper move for KingRy to "stay busy!" Gesta is a 35 yr. old fighter who has lost at the Championship level! Plus the fight is at 140!

Tank should've never picked Hector Luis Garcia! Garcia is a 31 yr. old Olympian, and has been successful at the Championship level! I got a bad feeling (for Tank) on that one!

Tank isnt fighting a random . The guy is coming off of an upset , undefeated, and a former Olympian. I like Gesta but he’s nothing more than a body at this point. Hes 35 coming off of a layoff. Sounds like Garcia is fighting a random imo bro

WTF? Gesta is not viable at this stage if his career. This is the same kind of look good fight to set up the bigger fight as Tank is taking.

I have a great feeling for Tank on this fight. He picked an Olympian with a major belt as a tune up for the biggest fight of his career. Shows you the character this guy has. My man!
