    Loma hit Pedraza with the kitchen sink in the 11th and he couldn't even finish him or daze him. He couldn't have buzzed Pedraza if he hit him upside the head with a cast iron frying pan. Davis dispatched him easy because hes too damn strong.

    And it took Loma eons to dispatch one of the most fragile pieces of a man in boxing named Jorge Linares. I like Jorge and his skills are incredible, but talk about being made out of glass. A 12 year old would shatter that chin.

    From what I've seen so far, Tank's poor footwork and midget height are a recipe for a boxing lesson from Lomachenko.
    I need to see more from him. Unless Tank's timing and countering are top notch, the current Tank would be in for a boxing lesson. He crosses his feet when he moves, and he's short as ****. Pedraza seemed to hold him at bay when he boxed from the outside.

    To be fair, Davis adjusted nicely against Pedraza and brought the attack downstairs to set up the stoppage.
    It is a good match of styles...I just think Loma holds the edge in terms of intangibles at present.

    You know who else that takes eons to dispose of people? In fact it takes him so long, he usually ends up winning by lopsided UD, Manny Pacquiao.

    Tank is a beast early, but I'm not sold on his conditioning.

    He does a lot of good things, but I think Loma takes him to deep waters and drowns him at this point.

    Tank needs to stay active and he desperately needs to go rounds. The early knockouts are impressive, but they're not what he needs to take his game to the next level.

    If would be a tragedy if someone like Davis could beat like Lomachenko as it would make all the fanboys on here venerate Davis into something he definately is not.

    BTW I think Lomachenko dismantles him. Just like he has to everyone else.

    Same.

    Everyone is getting hyped about these early KOs over complete sub par opposition.

    I must confess I didn't even watch the fight. Knew it would be a no contest. Instead watched the DAZN card. Davis has enough power to give Loma trouble but Loma is the superior boxer. If he can stay out of harm's way he coasts on Davis, maybe even catches him late. Good fight. NOW.

    Tank has huge KO power, but Lomachenko has speed and movement. it's crazy, but it's kind of like Fury vs. Wilder.... Of course Gervonta has waybetter technique than Wilder lol. If Gervonta connects flush on Loma's jaw, I'm not sure if he will be able to handle that.

    I tend to agree with this. Russell was the toughest out but some of the other undefeated fighters were pretty awesome as well.
