    Mayweather said that he will have Gervonta Davis fight against Loma. Do you guys actually see this fight happening this year??

    Not this year, but next year definitely. I expect Davis to struggle a bit against Cuellar but he should be able to win convincingly. Another fight after that to close out the year and I think he'd be ready by spring '19.. Huge fight when it happens.

    You can’t believe anything Floyd says. He’s just using Loma’s name to generate interest in his fighter. Nothing to see here.

    I heard Tank is really disgruntled with The Medication Team.

    Floyd's going in the Octagon. Floyd's letting his pet get humiliated by Loma. Floyd's worth 10 billion dollars blah blah blah.

    Floyd wants to put No Thanks Davis in with Loma because of what Davis said about Floyd. Maybe Floyd knows the end is near with Davis and soon he will go with some other promoter.

    This just confirms that Floyd was really protecting No Thanks Davis from Loma and was using the age excuse. Just Floyd showing Davis the way of ducking real threats and waiting for the right moment to actually make a fight.

    I wonder how this will play out. Maybe Davis and Floyd kiss and make up and continue their relationship. Or maybe Floyd is really willing to throw Davis in with Loma but Davis is not technically obligated to fight Loma. He can just wait out to finish his contract like Mikey Garcia did with Arum.

    IMO I think Tank being (black, Hispanic and white) humiliated by fans for ducking Loma was getting to him.. I believe he’s pressuring Mayweather Promotions to make this fight happen and I also think this is the root of the whole they don’t believe in me tweet

    I heard about that fight happening tonight in the Void interview, I guess the fight will be at 135? Lomachenko will beat his head off!!!!!!!

    Linares is the more difficult stylistic match-up; Tank will be a step down for Lomachenko.

    Linares can't be underestimated, he is a good fighter and much bigger than Lomachenko. Lomachenko has come up from 126 to 130 and now 135, will fight Linares in his first fight at 135, Lomachenko is not afraid of anyone and he wanted to fight Mikey, but Mikey doesn't want him..................but yes, I agree, Davis will be an easier fight for Lomachenko than Linares...............

    Not really. Tank has said, even recently when asked about Loma, that he will fight Loma whenever he is ready, that Loma just wants to "use" his name and that Loma is in a hurry because he is old. Always the same lines every time Loma is brought up. Not once, not even recently, has he said he wants to fight Loma or that Floyd is the one that doesnt let him fight Loma.
