    1) Devin Haney is overrated.

    2) Ryan was unlucky against Tank

    If Haney is overrated wouldn’t that make Garcia not that good? That doesn’t add up to Tank being lucky. **** post my friend!

    He wasn't unlucky. Tank's got power and Ryan makes too many mistakes. If he can land one of those hooks flush on Tank, we will see. But I don't think he ever beats Tank though.

    Not at all. I'd say Ryan was even more focused and ready for Tank than he was for Haney. Tank won because of skills, not because of luck.

    Ryan quit vs Tank. So it isn't about luck.

    But Haney is overrated indeed.

    No, I've known Haney was overrated.

    But we certainly learned the weight cut badly compromised Ryan against Tank. Which we all also suspected.

    Haney sits below the top two:

    Ryan Garcia and Gervonta Davis.

    1. Haney got exposed a bit.

    2. Ryan is not a smart fighter. He could have ended the fight early if he used the jab and not go on the defensive at the worst times. I’ve never seen a fighter cover up after knocking the other fighter down.

    3. Harvey Dock is an awful ref.

    No. Ryan was no less focused for Haney. They fought six times as amateurs so this was truly a grudge match.

    No, all it proves is he's heavier handed than Loma, without the knockdowns, Ryan would have lost. Loma didn't need any knockdowns to dominate and then get robbed.

    Not even close. If you believe that you know nothing about the sport.

    Only thing different ive seen is Garcia didnt gassed. Still telegraphed as hell, still atrocious "defense" and still a one trick pony that I expect a more polished fighter WITH a chin would soundly beat. Ryan is too reliant on his power
