    “**** **** **** **** ****ing **** ****ing Garcia.”

    Try taking your meds instead of selling them.

    Seems odd that any LW would want to restrict themselves to 146? If 146 on fight night is comfortable for Gervonta then he must still be able to make 130 easily enough.

    Ryan will make weight easy once Davis has sucked him dry

    they need to keep their relationship to themselves, they wanted to kiss badly at their presser

    I would assume that this rehydration clause also applies to Davis as well, or is this just for Garcia?

    It would be funny if Davis go over the rehydration clause, cause he's been known to get distracted and not make weight.

    It's the usual suspects.

    Way to easy to blame the criminal Tank for that.

    Cryan could have taken the fight at Lightweight, instead he wanted that BS 136 catchweight clause.

    There is no way they could have added that rehydration BS for a regular 135 pound fight. But King Cryan didn't want to cut to 135 because he knew those last few pounds are tough for him to make at this point.

    He’s too busy running internet scams and dealing with dodgy internet connection in his hut.

    Twink has always been in the cherrypicking and ducking business so this should come as no surprise to anyone. The shameless 'Seven Year Duck' of Loma alone should book him an automatic place in the Hall of Shame. When it was time for Baltimore to stand up Twink sat down and brought shame upon the city and embarrassed the OGs in the hood a number of whom are business associates of mine.

    Garcia's resume is even worse than his and he's not even that good but he still had to bend over backwards and jump through hoops to entice Twink to get into a ring with him. How many of those leprechauns Twink dragged up from 118-126 did he fight at catchweights and have rehydration clauses in the contract for when he fought them?

    Fight should've been at 135 from the rip. That's the weight it was talked about happening at for years anyway.

    i get what youre saying. but it wasnt made back then, and ryan was a growing boy. hes still gonna grow out more, thicken up. plus tank has fought bigger guys. i think a 136 weight is fair. the rehydration clause is a bit much, for the type of guy tank represents himself as being.
    it was a good even fight in most peoples eyes. he would have got all the credit. even from his haters. now theres a bit of a stain if ryan looks off.

    Hasnt Davis also fought at 140 and is quite heavy at 135?

    Garcia says he fights at about 146-148 and it shouldnt be an issue.

    All I know is, any halfway decent LW Contender from back when boxing was the real deal, would whip both their asses while weighing 135. Very possibly on the same night.

    Can you imagine all these big talkin' no fightin' prima donnas having to go 15 rounds in a hot, smoky club, with a violent racist crowd screaming obscenities at them while the average referee lets them get beat to within an inch of their lives? Going round after round with no comforts except water & your nasty stank ass cornermen fanning their BO right in your face with towels, while some ugly fat dude waddles around the ring with the roundcards?

    They'd never survive.
