    I really hate the baiting that the commentators of today be putting out there. Boxing is a noble sport but they trying to turn it into the WWF with all that BS. They don't need to be hyped up because they know what they gotta do. I am glad that they didn't take the bait. Barrios was cool and so was Davis. The tickets gon sell anyways because they are both warriors and that is what people want to see.

    Why isn't the option for a draw in the poll?

    If Twink has an off night, and he can't be gifted a points win, the next best thing is a draw and rematch...a la Wilder v Fury, where the corruption ensured Wilder didn't lose even if he couldn't win.

    The (Need More) Money Team will make sure Twink doesn't lose if it goes to points.

    Close fight, you can probably make a case for Barrios afterwards but Tank gets the decision in his home town and as an A-side from a promoters perspective.

    I'm not impressed by Barrios but he's tough, big and can box and that might be enough to cause Tank problems.

    But i have a hard time to see Tank losing via decision in his hometown against a guy like Barrios to be honest.

    As I predicted the day this match was announced, Barrios is the walking talking personification of a banana peel. He hits roughly as hard as Prograis, has an excellent chin, Tank had no power at 135, will have even less at 140, he's never fought an opponent this tall, this rangy, this heavy handed, this physically big. It wouldn't shock me in the least if this ended up being a replay of Figueroa-Nery. Mario is going to bully and beat the living dogpiss out of Stank, and KO him in 6. Hell, tiny little Leo Santa Cruz was having his way with him at times, and his offense caused Tank to keep his hands at home occasionally. What happens he's he's face to face with a Godzilla sized heavy handed Santa Cruz?:eek:

    Honestly..I hate tank...I think he's a gobshite...but he does have talent to go alot further but he's so ****in lazy....I don't get his decision to go to light welter either ..he's smaller than the average oompa lumpa ffs ....I've not seen much of Barrios but he seems like a good kid .decent power...tank will come unstuck at some point ..it's only a matter of time and history is littered with talented fighters who ran up weight divisions thinking they are the next Pacquiao just to get their **** pushed in by bigger guy's... Broner Vs maidana,gamboa Vs crawford, just off the top of my head... hopefully this is tanks rude awakening...on bright side of he wins..I get to watch Taylor bang him like a cheap hooker

    9/1 on Barrios ko as well..worth a tenner anyday

    I got Barrios

    Tank maybe stretching his physical stature going two weight classes, power won't be there and Barrios wins by decision.
