    Think it was a bit of Garcia being overrated, a bit Garcia being scared of RRs power, and a bit of... I can't believe Im saying this but, maybe I underrated RRs ability a little bit.

    But a lot of it was Ryan being overrated.

    The dude, despite being faster, longer and possessing good power, was as basic and one dimensional as it gets tonight, and the thing is he could have potentially still won even with that but didnt have the metal to try and bring the fight into a second gear.

    So he was worse than basic.

    The elephant in the room is that Garcia can't use PEDs, and this is not a surprising result to some of us:

    He might have suddenly improved a lot in the last few months, it can happen. It was a good win for Romero. But, I do think Garcia was fairly overrated the whole time he was never really that good, neither was Haney.

    Would like to see Romero fight Teofimo.

    I like how that one fighter I don't care about at all eliminated that other fighter I don't care about at all.

    Ryan is not very good. I was surprised Devin lost to Ryan the way he did. Most definitely Ryan was juiced up and overweight, but still Haney should have won that.

    Ryan's defense is bad. He turns his whole torso away from his opponent like bracing for impact on one side of his body. It's very sloppy and basically makes it impossible for him to counter.

    I thought Devin was better. But I was right about Ryan. Not very good at all. Also right about Rolly, he's not that good either.

    The best thing about RR is his trash talk and he even stopped doing that now so I’m depressed

    Iny opinion, he outboxed Tank. Romero was ahead of Davis on my scorecards. Too bad he got caught.
