    Will Gervonta wait until Loma is old and faded?

    This would be a great matchup for 2020, but less interesting if it happens in 2030.

    Tanks handlers are waiting until Loma shows significant signs of decline.

    Tank is still very young.

    Look at Loma.... Fighting Crolla and now Campbell? This is not befitting of a prime P4P fighter and talent such as Loma. He should stop chasing boxing toddlers and start chasing the big fights.

    Ps. Salido

    He's age 25, much older than Canelo was when he fought Mayweather.

    When Manny Pacquiao was 25, he had already won multiple world titles in multiple weight divisions.

    When Mike Tyson was 25, he had already been unified world heavyweight champion and was already past his best.

    Gervonta Davis is an overprotected pampered grown man, well into his prime but still avoiding the best opponents.

    Loma should get that Salido problem fixed before looking at the new king of the division, Tank Davis.

    No, Ellerbe's home referees always protect his precious Davis from being punched in the stones like Salido did to Loma. And Ellerbe makes sure he'll never be robbed by the judges like Loma was, not even in Texas.

    Ellerbe loves Gervonta, just like he adored Floyd when he was younger.

    Tank's handlers won't let him fight Farmer, who would be a good preparation fight. So no way in hell do they let him fight Loma.

    As a side note, Loma fans are huge hypocrites. They claim Lightweights are too big, but steadily call out a midget 130 pounder.

    I think he will fight farmer or gamboa next. Tank called out farmer last night and im sure farmer wants it as well. Loma-tank in 2020 needs to happen.

    Loma's natural weight is 126.

    Gervonta Davis is a naturally bigger man than Loma. He weighs more on fight night, walks around at a heavier weight and has a significant reach advantage.

    Tank is 2 inches shorter at 5'5" and has a 2 inch reach advantage. He hit the ring at 141 last night, which is what Loma usually weighs on fight night also. Loma's team said they expected him to be between 142-144 on fight night vs Pedraza. So how is tank so much bigger?
