    I'll definitely be watching his next fight if he isn't fighting a Danny Garcia level tune-up. He looks promising, but I hope fans don't get sucked into that vortex of overrating flashy, exciting fighters like they did with the fairly similar Broner.

    Let's him get a defense in or two, before he starts fighting the best in his division. No rush.

    I would like to see him add some wrinkles to his game, up his IQ.... but obviously I like his style. Whats not to like. His character gives me weird vibes but his in ring style is beautiful. But he needs to learn from judah, berto and broner, that speed and pop isnt all there is and you need more at the elite level. What will make or break Tank is his IQ. If he is halfway smart he will absorb all he can from Floyds style.

    Eh, I don't know about being a fan now but I'll for sure keep watching him, to see how he goes. Takes more than one fight to become a fan of someone but he's on the right track and I'm interested to see where he goes from here on out.

    Nope. Only a matter of time before he finds himself in the slammer.

    Great natural talent and skillset with tremendous potential to get even better, If'n you can imagine that.
    My only concern is he may get in trouble on the mean streets of Baltimore.
    Too bad he is so short.
    I'd like to see in 2 years time, Davis Vs Spence!

    Did I mention that I totally predicted he'd win by 8th rough KO?

    I was very high on Pedraza as well. Davis turned out to be better than I originally thought.

    After that body shot it was over, pedraza also implemented a shitty game plan.

    Everybody has a plan until they get hit in the face.

    That right hook almost took Pedraza's head off. Good stoppage by ref.

    I think that he can take Vargas's title right now.
