    Ah maybe not no. Fair point. Pedraza is very decent though so thats a good win and is better than Valeros win over DiMarco

    P4P I agree. But at 130 I dont know. Both Pac and Marquez carried a fair bit more power at 126.

    No because Tank will prove himself more at 135. You can't be consider the best at anything if you haven't had any significant fights at the weight.

    Tank hasn't demonstrated otherworldly power.

    Twink Davis is supposedly all lined up for Yuriorkis Gamboa next.

    If the rumors are true that Twink has a glass jaw....this could be dangerous for him. Forget Loma.

    There's an abundance of high level smaller guys that were harder hitters at FW, and SFW, and showed it against higher levels in comp. Tanks a hard hitter though.

    Sandy Saddler would have to up there for this weight range. Over 100 KOs on his resume; the guy could definitely bang. We just haven’t seen Gervonta in with enough elite competition yet to be able to really compare his power to ATG fighters from the past in or around his weight class.

    He hits really hard albeit he hasn't really fought anyone other than Pedraza who was world class and of the few that were or arguably were they were 122 and 126 pounders and Twink was a boiled down 135 pounder who looked like the undead at weigh ins, forfeited his first world title on the scales and very nearly his second and was naturally much heavier than them. And Pedraza fought the most stupid fight of his career where he completely abandoned his considerable skills (and Pedraza is more skilled than anyone Crawford has fought so far for instance) and instead opted to wade in face first to his bombs all night until he inevitably wilted and succumbed to his power which anyone would if they employed such moronic tactics against a legit banger.

    You don't think he was a big puncher?

    In my lifetime, I don't think ive seen a harder puncher at 130 that Acelino Freitas.

    Corrales has serious power at that weight too.

    Im not saying hes at the top of the list but people forget that Floyd had a really good stoppage ratio at 130.
