Or maybe he is just focusing on boxing to conquer his depression and other mental problems that will lead him in an unwanted situation, either way, I'm glad that he is looking sharp and back in business to face the heavy names. This maybe his first time but I know that he can do this properly because every champion was once a challenger too, so there's really a first time for everything. I just hope that there would be no problems along the way.
He started his journey too early, he received too much attention at a young age, in addition, there is a lot of tension before the fights, so not everyone is able to endure such psychological stress. But it is clear that he coped well with this, that what does not kill us makes us stronger. Whether he is ready for the battle with the Tank is a very difficult question. When I watch an interview with Garsis, I see that he believes that he is ready, and this is very important, but I see that Tank is a more experienced opponent and he is stronger at the moment.
As long as he is ready, expect a 100% performance of Garcia. He cannot make an excuse that he is dealing with a mental problem if he losses his fight, this is big for him, so as an undefeated fighter, he will certainly make sure to continue that way. Tank is definitely a tough opponent, but about the experience, I think it's not a big deal.
24 yrs old vs 28 yrs old, both are young boxers and champions, this is very unpredictable.
Well, regarding these two high-level boxers, for me it is much more influential to go in favor of García, Tank is a great boxer and some people say that Tank is far ahead of García, for me it is a fight that will be very exciting It is one of the fights that I think could make a difference, I don't know, but I think that now, since many have speculated that García is not quite at Tank's level, they say that he has to face another average before him.
From the videos I've seen, Tank has great fighting power, but I think Garcia can give him a good fight, Tank may have the favoritism, but Garcia has a great level.
And that's the true advantage right there because even though Garcia have the size advantage, Davis here is already accustomed fighting with that scenario and surely he prepared for it because he knows that there will be some times that he'll get to fight with other boxers that are much taller than him and he doesn't want that his size will be the one who will give him the disadvantage despite the KO power he had.
The reach difference isn't small, and I think that is what Ryan Garcia is working out. Making use of all his advantages. If executed properly, I think Gervonta Davis may have difficulty moving around and closing into Ryan Garcia.
Ryan Garcia should be careful and I expect the best from him because he had to cancel his fight with Mercito Gesta just train and prepare straightly for his fight with Tank Davis. And yes, I also think that this bout won't be needing a full 12 rounds.
This skipped fight with Ryan Garcia may take a toll on him. The fight against Gesta is a good way to test his training, there is a possibility of signs of ring rust too because of too much idleness before Ryan's fight against Gervonta. I think Ryan is getting too confident that can possibly work against him.
I agree, if Ryan will take that advantage of is, being long and used his jab even further in this fight, stiff and strong jab that will let Davis very uncomfortable and can't execute his game play then Ryan might have a chance to win.
And then probably Davis will adjust too maybe in the middle of the fight, maybe put more pressure on Ryan and push him to make that one mistake and then he deliver his knock out, just like what he did against Romero. Very cautious but then when Rolly goes after him, Davis saw that opportunity. So there could be rounds of adjustment for both fighter, and it could be a chess match in the beginning.
However if Tank begins to pressure Ryan, it might also give Ryan some opportunities for a step back before left hook. How is Tank Davis' jaw because it might be also be his test. There are already many people who speculate that Ryan has a glass jaw, but how is Tank's jaw?
According to this article Ryan wants Tank to knock out Hector Garcia
out cold hehe. Is Ryan pressuring Tank?
“I want Tank to knock [Hector Luis Garcia] out cold. It will make out fight even bigger,” said Ryan Garcia via ESPNSource https://www.boxingnews24.com/2023/01/ryan-garcia-wants-tank-davis-to-ko-hector-to-make-their-fight-bigger/Probably, Ryan Garcia was just messing Tank Davis in his head to finish the fight much earlier than anybody is expecting it to be. This young blood should just focus in his preparation for their upcoming fight because I bet he will be having some mental issues again if he will get embarrassed in this fight, too playing won't help him in his goal because Tank Davis is a critical thinker, he can't fathom it because Ryan Garcia is yet to come in that state.
Talking about their jaw, Ryan was already revealed that his jaw can be crack easily, while Davis's jaw is still unknown but I reckon is much sturdier than the Ryan.
Well, each boxer has his weak point, but here, honestly, it would seem to me a very last resort move to go for his weak point, because they are saying it for a reason, easy if they win by attacking the weak point, the losing boxer can claim that he he won by attacking his vulnerability and that he focused there, in the case of any boxer I would not attack him there just to avoid that, partly they are details that are sometimes not so relevant, but for a fight like this, where there have been so many discussions and things are said between them, I don't see it as appropriate, apparently both boxers have the same weak point.
And each one says things to himself in his own way:
Hector Garcia says he’ll beat Tank Davis by being “smarter fighter”Hector states that he wasn’t worried last week when he heard the news about Gervonta being arrested. Since it was something he had no control over, Garcia didn’t feel any concern about the fight possibly being canceled. He felt that even if the contest was called off, he would have found another opponent to fight
“I feel really good, and positive in the mindset and ready to give the fans what they want on Saturday night,” said Hector Luis Garcia to Fight Hub TV about how he feels physically ahead of his contest against Gervonta ‘Tank Davis.
“I’m going to be the smarter fighter, and I’m going to go out with my hand raised through the biggest door possible,” said Hector when asked why he thinks he’s going to beat Tank Davis on Saturday night.
