    Garcia could decide to box his ears off for 12 rounds and cruise to an easy UD.
    Like wide.

    A slugfest is more risky but winnable with power Garcia possesses

    And most likely Garcia wont be hit from Tank. Cruz exposed that Tank doesn't do well with body shots and that's what Garcia does best.

    That's exactly how I've been reading this fight from the first time it was even rumored.

    No, you don't say "Ok". You say "No Way! Tank has a wicked uppercut and him being shorter will have the advantage and knock Garcia into the next realm!

    Garcia's static head movement will get him KOd

    Garcia gets hit a lot. Just watch his fights. And Tank is probably the hardest hitter he has faced yet. I know he fought Campbell and the Brit is very solid, strong and powerful but i don't see him punching as hard as Tank who putting guys to sleep with shots which don't even look super hard. Garcia is flashy and can win rounds early on, no doubt, Tank lost rounds to Rolly freaking Romero and Rolly was boxing his ears off which is a major concern because Rolly just sucks. I think Garcia wins if he makes it to the final bell. But i think Tank knocks him out at some point. We saw Campbell having a lot of success and Campbell is a southpaw too. My prediction is Tank the Criminal by KO in Round 8 after Garcia winning rounds early on and probably being ahead on the cards.

    It's a good fight and i'm honest...before Tank faced Rolly i was pretty sure he'd beat the **** out of Cryanbaby Garcia but Tank looked like **** against Rolly and he didn't look great in a few fights before that. Tank is massively overrated and another Deontay Wilder - just at a lower weight. He's nothing special at all and once the opponents can take his best shots he's in trouble. Like he was against Cruz who arguably beat him. Barrios, albeit at 140, should have been ahead on the cards too, he was almost dominating the fight before Tank caught him. Rolly and Hector Garcia were having tons of success too and both were probably leading too on a fair card. If you actually look back, Tank never really dominated a fight for a while now and his power bailed him out several times. I mean the corrupt PBC mafia would have bailed him out as well if those fights hit the cards but still...

    If Garcia can take the power and fights smart, it's probably his fight to lose but as i said, i have a hard time seeing that after watching his fights and taking a closer look at his defense. He's just too hittable and his head movement is similar to Rollys: Non-existent.

    I don't like Cryan Garcia at all but i'm rooting for him. Picking the Criminal though. Tank by KO 8. Hopefully the last time for a while we see that criminal piece of **** fight. Back to jail mother****er....

    Reading all these comments, it looks like we all agree that these dudes aren’t all that good. I mean they’re obviously talented but there’s probably a reason for them not holding any belts at 135 or 140, cause they’ve got some big promoters behind them(pun intended).

    Tank has 28 fights at 28 years old. Ryan has 23 fights at 24. Don’t see an edge in experience at all.

    I can see that..they both make it pretty easy not to like them. Garcia's dad on the other hand is extremely humble and down to earth. I met him at the box expo and had a good conversation with him. His mom was sitting off to the side just smiling, she also sempt cool.
    Wonder what happened to Ryan

    I’m looking forward to this fight. I think Garcia is going to be up on the cards outboxing Tank for large portions of the fight but will likely end up getting knocked out by a big punch late in the fight. If Garcia can remain focused and play it safe he can win this fight but I think he’ll most likely get over confident later on and will open himself up and Tank will be there waiting to clip him with something big which will take him out.

    Sempt? It’s seemed.
    You know, I’m thinking the same thing, Ryan boxing smart and Tank waiting to land those uppers. And then I really start to think, has Ryan really shown that he is that kind of boxer, or are we all just looking for something that’s not there? @CST80 what do you think?
