    Fact remains that Tank is not good for the sport
    He has a bad criminal récord and is constantly in trouble with the law
    He put numerous stipulations and hurdles for a fight to get made when he has barely started to prove himself
    Ryan is a far better ambassador for the sport with his good looks, respectful demeanour and all around the way he carries himself
    Tank is favored but I’m hoping that the good guy wins today
    WAR GARCIA

    I can only judge him what he does inside the ring, and when it comes to Boxing he's great for the sport.

    It’s obviously about boxing
    Haven’t you noticed that all the popular boxers were good looking? pretty boy Floyd, Oscar, manny, etc

    He has more upside in terms of marketability for the sport and could attract new fans to boxing. But he's got to have the skills too and I just don't think he has it, but he's young, maybe he improves.

    agreed. if Tank wins I reckon his cherry picking will become worse, he and mayweather promotions seemed pretty happy with matching him up against weaker opposition for regular titles and proclaiming him to be a star, so with a win over a popular contender like Garcia they'd start acting like they don't need the likes of Haney and Teo. Tank is already 28 and yet look at his resume. Teo Haney and Garcia aren't even over the age of 25 yet and they're already fighting better opposition than Davis.

    Mike had that lunatic appeal to him. And he was funny too. Tank just comes off as a gangster

    You have a tall handsome knockout artist and a dimwitted ugly mushmouth munchkin thug. That's pretty much a given.

    Absolutely. A Garcia win is much better for boxing. He has far more appeal.

    I was going to say something sarcastic like "And Garcia is a beautiful man, too." But this is more succinct.

    I agree with GK, Garcia is a much better spokesman for the sport

    1. He ain’t a smoothbrain
    2. He isn’t chocking out his baby mama
    3. Tank is mentally unstable, so you really want that malaka representing usboxing when you can have an articulate, upstanding young man
    4. Tank seems to have same 4 sentences memorized “uhhh can’t wait uhhhh for this fight uhhh all the uhhh wonderful fans uhhh don’t miss it”
    5. You really think Nike is going to attach their brand to Thug Life stank Davis?

    In any other sport this is a given. Not sure why boxing fans find this hard to believe.

    They both have their issues. Tank the gangster, Garcia the flake. I just want to see a good fight. I hate all the hype. May the better man win.
