This is heartbreaking again the fight was canceled we all want this fight to materialize, unfortunately, unforeseen events happen I guess we will wait for the rescheduled date, this is a developing story both camps will give us updates, I hope its just an APRIL fools day joke so far checking other news there is none but we'll see

Update: checking CBS boxing I guess its an April fool's day but very late posting this  Grin

You almost got me fooled there too if I didn't read the whole post of yours.  Cheesy

I mean, after the reported canceled bout of Inoue versus Fulton, I would believe this could also happen with Davis versus Garcia. Injuries could happen in their training camps so it's a possibility.

Pay per view price is not changing so I guess it is stuck at $84.99.
This is much higher than Canelo vs Plant fight $79.99 and just lower by $5 in the Pacquiao versus Mayweather fight which is $89.99.
I don't know if viewers will find it worth the price because they made a big trend in social media. I would gladly just wait for the replay instead of paying this and just use the money for putting my bet on Davis.
Well, many of the boxing fans are waiting for this fight to happen for a long time, so I guess people will save money just to watch this fight.

I'm pretty sure that this will be an exciting match knowing that both of them are undefeated, and at the same time, they are rising stars on the own weight class. At the same time, it hasn't started yet, but many are already saying that this fight would be a candidate for a battle of year, and I guess I might agree with them just by looking on how they fight in their careers. As of this moment, Davis is the -240 favorite, while Garcia is the +200 underdog.

For sure, I will put a bet on this one, but TBH I'm having a hard time picking which one should I put my money with because both of them really can just knock their opponents out.

It also fooled me. After looking at the image I immediately went to boxingscene.com to confirm the new hehehe.

In any case, very much similar to Mayweather vs. Pacquiao, we will never know if the price of the payperview is worth the quality of the fight. However before April 22, just knowing that Tank Davis and Ryan Garcia are willing to go in the ring vs. each other while they are strong and young is clearly worth $84.99.

So I read a conversation from my hardcore friends that Tank Davis didn't just demand a catchweight at 136 but also a rehydration clause of no more than 146. So this is a fucked up fight for Ryan Garcia. So I guess it may be true that his lazy ass is done with boxing and just wanted to cash out big time so he surrendered every possible leverage he could take in this fight for sake of millions of dollars for his early retirement fund. Ryan Garcia is nearly a year inactive and after spending 2 fights at 140, he is now back to a catchweight of 136 which would be harder for his growing age and that rehydration clause will affect his full potential for this fight.

No wonder Tank is getting 1.39 odds which surprised me, I was expecting around 1.50 something.

 

I'm afraid you got your facts wrong my friend. First off, it wasn't Tank Davis who demanded a catchweight at 136, it was Ryan Garcia because it was said that he's not that suitable anymore to fit at 135 and to give back the favor, the latter also agreed with Tank's camp to have a rehydration clause which will limit the latter's weight in the day of their actual fight.

Take note, this wouldn't happen if only Ryan Garcia proceeded with a plain fight that will be contested at 135 but since his camp asked some favor that will give them an advantage, it's no wonder that Tank's side will also make up something to even out the table.

Second, Ryan Garcia was already more than two years inactive at 130 if that's what you mean because his last two fights was contested at 140 where he fought Emmanuel Tagoe and Javier Fortuna, respectively.

Well, it's been years already since Ryan Garcia is challenging Tank Davis in public. Tank a couple of years ago went to 140 also. It came from Tank Davis' mouth that Ryan Garcia tried to negotiate for 138 then 137. Tank Davis being a cherry picker and doesn't care about fighting nobodies and tomato cans for the rest of his life never gave Ryan Garcia the chance to meet halfway which is at 137.5 something. Tank Davis learned a lot from Mayweather's strategy of exploiting deals or no fight at all. This is the reason why Oscar De La Hoya seems a little furious about his ward's willingness to give up everything and just follow all the demands of Tank Davis. At 136, they should have demanded a no-rehydration clause.

You're a little lost mate or maybe you meant 135. Ryan fought Tagoe and Fortuna last year, so he is nearly a year inactive. After this, Oscar will be more focused on grooming Vergil Ortiz, Jaime Mungia, and his other potential prospects of becoming superstars since Ryan is ready to leave boxing after earning $5 to $20 million unless he scores an upset. Cheesy

Yes, my bad, it was 135 (super-light) and not 140. He fought Tagoe and Fortuna last year which makes him already 2 years inactive at 135 because the last time he fought at that division was the time his chin was revealed, it was against Campbell.

And of course, every boxer is aiming to have a fight where they have the advantage and not their opponent. Who would want that fight? Ryan Garcia and his camp already asked for a catchweight that's why they can't decline Tank's camp to make a rehydration clause. As I said, none of these things would happen if Ryan Garcia agreed at a plain ol' 135 bout.

Lol, i'm leaning towards an upset here when they start negotiating for this fight as Ryan Garcia is the bigger fighter here which could give trouble to Tank Davis but with that rehydration clause i don't think that King Ryan could impose his size here as he will be only taller not bigger and upset is a slim possibility and Oscar knows that because he experienced that scenario too when he fought our very own Manny Pacquaio.

But i don't think this would be the end of Garcia's career if he lost, he could be the gate-keeper as he will be exposed on this one and potentially could earn 1-2 million USD per fight if being called out to fight champions hehe.

Ok let's hear the opinion of Shakur Stevenson, he will have his fight at 135 lbs later and this is his take in this fight.

Quote
“Ryan don’t have the IQ, the defense. I just think Tank's IQ is better than Ryan’s for sure. You gotta make him earn everything. Ryan, it don’t look like he’s the type of fighter that’s gonna make him earn anything. It’s all gonna be given to him. Once he gets that shot, it’s over with.”

https://www.boxingscene.com/shakur-stevenson-believe-ryan-garcia-iq-beat-tank--173482

So another fighter in the books who think that the odds are correct and it should be in favor of Davis because he believes that Ryan doesn't have the ring IQ and one dimensional and he blatantly attack and says that everything that Ryan got at this point of his career is like spoon feed for him but Golden Boy. Not sure what will be Ryan's response here, (I haven't seen one), but for sure he will not take this lightly and could be very well replied through his official and verified twitter account hehehe.

Yes Grin You may well expect that Ryan Garcia won't be silent about this one as this specific opinion that Shakur gave will literally trigger Garcia. This is getting fun, only the minority believes that the young blood can overcome the title holder. Well, can't really blame Shakur for what he had said because he was just being honest as Ryan surely got no defense and his IQ isn't that vast compared to Tank, and worse thing is, he's just attacking blindly most of the time while waiting until those punches will have a clean land.

We should respect the opinion of the champion, as he likely sees the weaknesses of Ryan Garcia. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that Garcia is the inferior fighter. Bookies create odds based on public opinion, so as a fan of Garcia, I'm not bothered by predictions of his loss, as this could make his odds more heavy underdog.

In truth, Davis is a skilled fighter, and I'm glad that Garcia is finally facing a tough challenger to prove himself in the championship league.

And with that, if the Mayweather-McGregor fight was big that time, maybe this fight could be comparable at least in terms of PPV numbers. Even Oscar was hype about this and he said that it could break PPV records. But we all know that it's coming from him as he promotes Ryan Garcia.

I don't think the PPV revenue of the upcoming fight between these two boxers will come anywhere close to that of Mayweather vs McGregor. Mayweather was widely considered the best fighter of his era and had many detractors, which actually helped attract more fans.

However, neither of these two fighters have that level of popularity. There are other popular boxers in higher divisions that have more widespread appeal. While I believe they will sell a significant amount of PPV, we cannot compare it to the enormous revenue generated by Mayweather's mega-fights.
And it could be different right now as there are a lot who shared free PPV and boxing fans are looking for it so they won't buy because that's is going to be very expensive. Yeah, why not, we can say or estimates that it might be around 500,000 to as high as 1 million, I reckon. So it's going to be way below the Mayweather records, like the McGregor and Manny Pacquiao fight. Don't believed Oscar, he is delusional if he thinks that this fight can break PPV numbers. It might not even be in the top 10.

Most of the time, those people who like this kind of event that don't have enough budget to buy PPV will rely with free
streams coming from those websites that will offer free streams.

I also believe that even they may gain attention the shared revenue will still be far from those Mayweather mega fight.

There are more popular fighters that will offer big event that fans will support but for this one, maybe they'll earn decent but not that
huge.

I agree, this fight might earn big enough in the live gates as the tickets are already sold-out, so that means that all of it are already guaranteed on their side but in-terms of PPV buys? They might not break the record that they're aiming because we are now in the midst of modern era where almost people that wanted to see the fight got their own ways how to see it live. And talking about that, there's these streamers on the internet now that offers live streaming in-exchange of some donations of their service.

I think it was indeed big at that time because if it's not, the fight won't be on the history of one of the biggest PPV buys and in-terms of generated revenue. Although a fight like that is not unusual anymore but both parties managed to market that fight well and they got a press conference tour which helps them sell their fight.

Anyway, regarding this fight that it would break PPV records, that's quite a bit too much to ask, IMO. The biggest fight so far that had the most PPV buys was the fight that dubbed as "The Fight of the Century" and that was the fight of Mayweather vs Pacquiao which garnered a total of 4.6 Million PPV buys.

Too expensive, but it is expected as you say, because this is one of the biggest fight for this year and the network and promotions are taking advantage of the hype to increased the price at $80++. Usually it's below for certain big fights, but not in this magnitude.

Both are very young and at their prime, both has a knockout power and hate each other and wanted to take each other heads off with a single blow. Both have a lot of fans specially Ryan Garcia.

So yeah the hype is there and so it's better to take advantage of that and make a lot of money.

It's true that both fighters need to make money while they can, and since they are both still in their prime, this is an ideal time for them to maximize their earnings. Furthermore, since one of them will no longer be undefeated after the fight, triggering a rematch clause could lead to a potential trilogy of this rivalry.

As for your prediction, it's interesting that you are siding with Ryan Garcia, despite him being the underdog. You believe that he can beat Davis without any problems, which shows confidence in his abilities.

Probably I was caught by the Ryan Garcia hype,  Grin. So for me though, as much as the odds favor Tank by a good margin, still 50/50 for me. I mean just one power punch could turn the fight into Ryan's favor.

Yes, this is really the good time for them to fight and it's good that we are going to see them at their primes and maybe we can talk it in the future how good this fight is and the money that this young boxers earn with this one fight. And it can really change their careers specially whoever wins that fight.

Tank is a heavy favorite, he is -280 or has an implied chance of 73.7%.
https://www.oddschecker.com/us/insight/boxing/mma/20230227-gervonta-davis-vs-ryan-garcia-odds-davis-given-73pp-chance-to-beat-garcia

Now, if you believe it's a 50/50 fight, you should go with Ryan Garcia as it has the value for your money.

I know that he is the heavy underdog, 3:1 in most crypto sports bookies. The reason though that I say that this might be a 50/50 fight in my book because of the power by this two. If by chance Ryan Garcia is the first one to landed that big shot and kO or KD Davis then he might have a good chance. Ryan has very fans hands, he might be just plodding though and that is his weakness. But once he can land his left hook and Davis feel the power then it might be a different fight and the favorite might turtle up and play defense. This is just one scenario that might happen  that will favor Ryan Garcia.

Anyway, here is the price tag of the PPV and I may have to agree with the writer's comment about the expensive price.

Quote
You can imagine that many boxing fans will be hopping mad at the price for the Davis-Garcia event and choose to watch it for free on an illegal stream on April 22nd instead of paying the $84.99.
Source: Gervonta Davis Vs. Ryan Garcia For $84.99 On PPV On April 22 - Boxing News 24 (https://www.boxingnews24.com/2023/03/gervonta-davis-vs-ryan-garcia-for-84-99-on-ppv-on-april-22/)

That's a lot of money for just watching it on TV.
I may also pass and just wait for the replay. Stay out of the social media department to avoid receiving spoilers and watch the fight in silence with a beer in my hand.
I don't agree with the expensive price too, they are just ruining the chance of making more money because I am sure there will be a lot of illegal streamers that would broadcast this live on different websites and even in popular social media apps.

I guess that is somehow expected considering that this bout is already considered as a mega fight, the PPV price is just $5 below Mayweather-McGregor's PPV price. But yes, that's quite expensive for this one and instead of maximizing their profits to have a lot of PPV buys, they are in-fact making it to the opposite way by setting a high price like that. They thought it would be worth it and would be bought by a lot of people because they are basing from the fact that if there's a lot of people who are willing to pay for an expensive ticket, how much more for their PPVs.
Anyway, let's see what would be the result of their decision for riding the hype and taking advantage while these boxers are being talked a lot.

We can't compare though the price with Mayweather-McGregor PPV price, but if it will be adjusted then it should be the same price because of the magnitude of this fight. As we have been saying all along, two young and very powerful boxers in ther prime, we couldn't ask for more and it's good that it is going to happen this year.

And with that, if the Mayweather-McGregor fight was big that time, maybe this fight could be comparable at least in terms of PPV numbers. Even Oscar was hype about this and he said that it could break PPV records. But we all know that it's coming from him as he promotes Ryan Garcia.

Both are very young and at their prime, both has a knockout power and hate each other and wanted to take each other heads off with a single blow. Both have a lot of fans specially Ryan Garcia.

So yeah the hype is there and so it's better to take advantage of that and make a lot of money.

It's true that both fighters need to make money while they can, and since they are both still in their prime, this is an ideal time for them to maximize their earnings. Furthermore, since one of them will no longer be undefeated after the fight, triggering a rematch clause could lead to a potential trilogy of this rivalry.

As for your prediction, it's interesting that you are siding with Ryan Garcia, despite him being the underdog. You believe that he can beat Davis without any problems, which shows confidence in his abilities.

Probably I was caught by the Ryan Garcia hype,  Grin. So for me though, as much as the odds favor Tank by a good margin, still 50/50 for me. I mean just one power punch could turn the fight into Ryan's favor.

Yes, this is really the good time for them to fight and it's good that we are going to see them at their primes and maybe we can talk it in the future how good this fight is and the money that this young boxers earn with this one fight. And it can really change their careers specially whoever wins that fight.

Tank is a heavy favorite, he is -280 or has an implied chance of 73.7%.

Now, if you believe it's a 50/50 fight, you should go with Ryan Garcia as it has the value for your money.
