    C'mon man, Tank destroys anyone not named lomachenko, I'd put money on that. Who do you think beats Tank?

    Vargas, Miura, Uchiyama, Walters, Berchelt and maybe even Sosa could potentially beat him. I'd pick most of them to beat Pedraza, and I rated Pedraza, SFW is a fairly stacked division, and most of these guys are heavyhanded as hell, and Davis doesn't seem to respond well to being punched. Put him in there with Fortuna or Douglas first, before throwing him to a potential lion.

    Tank would stop all of those guys besides MAYBE Walters, depends on where his heart is at, I feel like he's done with boxing so he'd get destroyed too. Corrales is the only guy I think that could give Tank trouble, but Uchiyama hurt him bad with a body shot in the 2nd fight, I though Corrales did clearly win that fight, and the kd was absolute bogus, but if Tank landed that body he'd finish him. I think Tank hits harder than the Uchiyama that fought Corrales too.

    Would you REALLY pick all of those guys over Pedraza before Tank? I don't believe that.

    Yeah I would, I think Pedraza is skilled as hell, but his lack of power would hurt him against any of them. I've rated Vargas and Miura very highly for quite a long time before they fought each other, they'd bludgeon him, Berchelt is a potential beast, I'm taking him over Vargas Saturday, Walters and Uchiyama are still fully capable of beating a top guy, Walters isn't shot, he lost to one of the best boxers on earth, so what, and Uchiyama's power is still pretty potent when he can land cleanly.

    Once you quit, I have major question marks against you. So Walters is done to me. A true undefeated warrior would still go out there if they truly had heart and look for that 1 ko even if you're getting COMPLETELY dominated. Uchiyama is done man, it would be Corrales 1 all over again. I just want Uchiyama to retire tbh. Uchiyama was a great champ but he nver had the athleticism guys like Lomachenko, or Davis had who come with the skills too.

    If Vargas wins I want to see Tank fight him next. I think he'll absolutely pick him apart and destroy him. And in 2-4 years I want to see that Lomachenko fight, it's way too early right now.

    Let's see Davis fight someone who can hurt him, and more importantly keep him honest and at bay with their power, before proclaiming him the next ATG. Look at me with Vasquez Jr. he dominated guys far more impressively than Alexander, Guerrero, Postol, Spence, and then he got his ass kicked by Felix Diaz. For the record, no excuse here, but it was common knowledge Pedraza was on his way to Lightweight, and was complaining he was having a hard time making SFW for almost a year before the Davis match, so that may also have been an issue.

    I didn't say he was an ATG lol. I think 130 is strong, but not THAT strong. The guys at 126 are way better, Valdez, GRJ, Selby, Frampton, etc. If those guys were natural 130 guys I wouldn't say he runs through them. But Miura, old ass Uchiyama, Corrales(yeah I'd put him wiht those 126 guys skill wise), Vargas, aint cutting it for me.

    YO CMON man, you can't say no excuses here, and pull a Pedraza lmao.

    Btw how did u score the Uchiyama fight? After the bogus KD I was praying that they'd rob him lmao, I wanted Uchiyama to go out on a win even if it was BS. I wish Uchiyama went after Corrales more after he hurt him, he hurt him bad man.

    Ellerbe back to gloat for picking the type of fighter he picks regardless of circumstance. Yeah great job buddy going with that programmed default setting what a rebal and inconoclast you are.

    Most of the guys at FW get slaughtered at SFW, Frampton and Santa Cruz aren't big enough puncher's and aren't quite big enough to compete at SFW effectively, they mat be able to beat a few of the lighter guys at the weight but none of the larger ones, I think Valdez is the only current FW that's a legit threat.

    Pedraza was draining himself, by his own admission, that may have played a part, it is what it is.

    I scored it for Uchiyama 114-113.:D And I was rooting for a robbery as well.

    Tell me Willis, when I have been wrong when I made a thread making a prediction. Never. I picked Crawford to beat Postol, Ward to beat Kovalev, Mayweather to beat Pac, Charlo to beat J-Rock, and Tank to beat Pedraza. None of these guys were overhwhelming favorites besides maybe Mayweather for people who actually know boxing. I pick 50/50 fights, make threads about it and get them right. Why don't you try Willis you jerk off.

    Crawford/Postol wasn't 50/50 either, Some trolls and idiots picked Postol but that's about it.
