    I think this might be a closer fight than some think. For some reason I'd like to see Barrios take him into deep water and drown him

    Twink's daddy, Mr. I Need More Money To Pay For My 3 Illegitimate Children Who I hide From The Public aka Floyd Hairpiece aka Team Mayweather, will ensure a robbery if it goes to points, which i think it will.

    Floyd Hairpiece has a lot of time and money invested in Twink, and his new hair, and he certainly isn't going to let an inconvenient thing like the other guy in the fight affect the big picture.

    Tank in 8. I think the speed will allow Tank to counter Barrios and reach him first in exchanges. If I had to guess, left hook.

    I got Tank if 140 isn't too much for him he will win by UD.

    I’m tempted to go with Tank by TKO but on the safe side, I’m going with Tank via SD.

    I am going for my boy Tank. People talk about Tank’s power and Barrios size. However Tank is one of the best boxers I have seen and people don’t realise how gifted and skilled a boxer he is. Barrios is also a very good fighter. LAzteca or whatever he calls himself is very good and I like him but Tank will show the difference between very good and Special.

    If you enlist the services of Virgil Hunter you immediately move onto my poop list. That being said, as much as I want to dislike Barrios I actually like the guy so it's not personal. He's a decent fighter but I had him losing to Akhmedov who was a mere seven fight novice and Twink is a 135 pounder to me who looked like death on the scales at 130 and whose history of missing weight, missing weight the first or second time of asking, losing his title on the scales or almost losing it on them at 130 is well known and I think he'll just be to quick, talented and powerful for Barrios and will either KO him or Virg will pull his boy out or throw in the towel to save him from a more ugly exit.

    I see this as a move straight out of the Broner smoke and mirrors playbook, jumping up 'two weights' to pick up a belt of a weak or paper champ and everyone knows Taylor is the real champ at 140 and who all the real belts belong to.

    just watched the weigh in. barrios looked dry as dust, lips all chalky. nothing between his skin and his muscles. while tank looked kinda soft. tits drooping a bit. the size difference tomorrow after barrios fully hydrates and fills up on glucose is gonna look weird. cause tank will come in looking much the same while barrios is gonna pop a bit.

    Barrios is 9/1 to win by KO so i'll put some money down on it.

    I think either Gervonta goes through him like butter or Barrios will grind him down and stop him sometime after 6 rounds.

    I got tank if he can back up barrios that will negate some of that arm reach and make barrios vunerable to the body. If that happens tank will stop him.

    Twink just looks too small.

    Like, midget small, not necessarily weight small.

    It's comical seeing him staring up at Barrios.

    I was thinking he'll get a crook in his neck if this face off goes on much longer.

    Still, the man can't help being short.

    I still say Floyd Hairpiece and The (Need More) Money Team will try to pull a fast one.

    Anyone else feel Twink has that Canelo or Wilder vibe, where everything feels preordained - like certain people in boxing have invested in him and will do whatever it takes to stage manage his career so he has advantages others don't?

    Anyway, I know he can overcome his size with his ability etc...but I'm not totally convinced by him yet.

    Barrios has stopped 9 of his last 10 foes. Don’t let that average KO percentage fool you.
