Before and after I created this thread, my prediction was always Tank Davis will win because he is the better boxer and the tougher man. However, when I was looking at King Ryan's record more closely, I think he has made the much needed preparations to give him a better than expected chance to win. King Ry has very much prepared himself to fight a 5'6" left handed boxer by fighting 2 left handed boxers in his last 3 fights. The last opponent is Javier Fortuna, he is short and can knockout anyone, having much similarities to Tank. I would laugh at King Ry's bettors last week, however, we cannot laugh if we have studied his preparation more.
Both are great boxers, some fans just don't like Ryan Garcia because he talks so much, but looking at his resume, he can certainly beat anyone as he has the power and speed and the height which is his advantage against Tank Davis.
We have our own prediction though, but I'm pretty sure this is going to be a close fight so let's continue predicting and don't forget to bet once the bookies are ready to accommodate us bettors.
If there's a poll in this thread, I would appreciate it.
please OP hear me out.
I would definitely vote for Ryan Garcia, I love the underdog of this fight, it doesn't matter to me if he talks so much because I'm always satisfied with his performance in the ring everytime he has some action. This is probably the first time where he is listed as an underdog, so might as well take that opportunity.
speaking of Ryan Garcia, I remembered that in September he said he almost got into a fight with Tank in a nightclub, so this fight will be the great chance to see who really is the tough guy, I hope Tank will win this fight, in my opinion Tank has more than enough skills to win the fight and that's why I'll bet on him, of course I'll need to see the value of the odds first, after seeing who the bookmaker's favorite will be then I'll do more analysis and bet on the fighter that at that time show signs of being the winner
But I think Ryan here will try to go for a win and train very hard against Tank because it is the key for him to be recognized and maybe fight for the belt next. So I'm not seeing him as entertainer as this stage, that left hook is still very dangerous and could put to sleep anyone including Tank Davis.
Tank Davis no doubt also comes well prepared for this fight, he should also be studying all Ryan's strengths and weaknesses, he won't be caught on Ryan's left hook, at least I believe that, he'll just need to hit the weak points from ryan and won this fight
