    There are also catchweights and rehydration clauses

    Rehydration clauses school. Catchweight school maybe.

    Tank is obviously a better fighter than Garcia or Haney. We can see that Haney has absolutely no power, can't crack an egg, and has a weak chin. Ryan Garcia has decent speed and power, but no skills. Garcia leaves his chin wide open, he has no head movement, doesn't set up his offense well, can't finish. He just flails away and hope he lands a big punch.

    I agree, Garcia's win last night didn't change my opinion of him one bit. Haney on the other hand,,,,,,,,

    Just further proof that Davis is wasting his career away. He's inactive and doesn't do anything to raise his profile.

    He fought Garcia a year ago with a rehydration clause, which didn't need to. Then after that, nothing.

    Everyone knows Lomachenko beat Haney

    Haney is very privileged when it comes to judges and organisations and so on. One judge even had it a draw last night! :risas3:

    Honestly that fight was pretty close even if Loma won but people never mention that. Ryan borderline destroyed Haney
