There is a Gervonta Bubble Forming

He's beatable

but that's not important in boxing anymore

What's important is: is he marketable and can he generate BIG revenue?

I don't think he can. Davis is a boxer for purists not casual scum and there aren't really any fights out there which garner attention which is why Garcia was a saving grace.

 

Yes the LGBTQ+ community.

and also a few real boxing fans because clearly he is the goods.

 

Tank is a Garbage Pail Kid.

 

That doesn’t mean it’s large though.

 

Davis is a very good fighter but he is beatable. I just don't think he's willing to face any real risks in the ring and his fans aren't interested in calling him out for it.

 

Romero was beating Davis. Too bad he got caught, he was about to end Tank hype.

 

Naseem was much more talented than Tank. Not a good comparison at all.

 

Even if there is a bubble, and even if does burst—it will be a thousand times more satisfying because fights were being made before it did.

April was weird as in it made me forget the current state of boxing. Two fantastic, completely voluntary bouts that make the actual struggle for the belts feel like colossal events.

It kind of accentuates how alphabet champions, and unnecessary weight divisions to a degree, kill the sport.

One ladder, one champion, one top contender. That's how winners are born—in pressure and heat.

 

So who is around Tank's weight that has the 'elite' skills to beat him? He is beatable, that's true. For example, any halfway decent 135-147 lb fighter from the past when boxing was great would beat him.

But who is there nowadays that has shown such great skill & ability?

 

I think quite a few can outpoint him. I have seen several go down on punches that he didn't even have full force behind them though. One decent shot and its only a matter of time. I think Stevenson and Haney could pull it off. Loma a few years ago.

 

Yawwwnnnnn

 

Agreed, there are some around that I think could beat him too, but they sure don't look elite to me and could just as well get KO'd as you said.

 

I think Shakur and Loma beat him. I can see Shakur being a future P4P number 1.
