    I'll be damned! I didn't know until today that Davis vs Santa Cruz was taking place at 130 for the WBA belt.

    I thought Davis was staying at 135 and SC was moving up to lightweight, that's why I was so turned off by it.

    This makes the matchup more intriguing and I'm less critical of it now. It's good that Davis is dropping back to 130, he doesn't really have the frame of a lightweight and he's at a big size disadvantage if he fought Fimo or Haney at 135.

    I'm thinking Davis stops SC inside of 8. Leo will be brave and put up a good fight, but he's too far outgunned in speed and power.

    REED Will Watch, But it's a Shit Fight, Honestly...

    REED Says That Based on Santa Cruz's Win Probability Which MIGHT Be 10%-15% Max, If That...90-10/85-15 Fights SHOULDN'T Headline PPV's, Sorry...& Floyd Had the Fucking AUDACITY to Suggest 1 or 2 MILLION Buys for this Shit???:Jest:...

    Undercard Ain't Bad (Regis Prograis and Mario Barrios in Separate Bouts) and REED WILL Watch (Via Firestick), but he'd Be Lying if he Said he was Looking Forward to Tank vs. LSC...

    Santa Cruz has Always Been More TOUGH than Talented, He's the Naturally SMALLER Man & the Proverbial "Puncher's Chance" DOESN'T Apply to Him...Ever...

    Shit Fight...

    Please, let Covid take this guy out.

    Think I'm just gonna bite the price and order it. I haven't ordered a fight since Spence-Porter.

    No, but a "Broken" Firestick Supposedly Opens the Floodgates to FREE Movies and PPV's...

    REED's Letting his 21 Year Old Do all the Legwork...

    REED Ordered the Charlo's Card Last Month...

    The Firestick is Cheaper, Obviously, but to REED's Knowledge You Can't RECORD Fights that Way, Which Sucks...REED Couldn't Care Less about Recording Tank-LSC, but Will Definitely Be Ordering Spence-Danny, for that Purpose...

    I'm gonna order Spence-Garcia as well. Which means I'll only have ordered two PPVs in 2020, which aint bad I guess.

    I'll stick with only ordering 2-3 next year.

    Back in the Day, Mrs. REED "Allowed" a 3 PPV Yearly Limit, But Once REED Added MMA to His Fight Watching Diet, He Had to Take Over the Satellite Bill...

    Fuck That...

    Shit Gets EXPENSIVE Though, Admittedly...On the Same Night as the Charlo's PPV, REED Ordered the Israel Adesanya UFC PPV Also...

    REED Saw him Fight Once, on the Errol Spence-Alejandro Barrera Undercard @ the Bomb Factory...

    Decent Enough Fighter but the Only Thing that Stood Out About Him was a FACIAL Resemblance to Canelo Alvarez...He Probably Got More Photo-Ops w/Fans than Anyone Else That Night, for that VERY Reason...

    w/Barrios Being FROM San Antonio, REED's Thinking Karl was Designated to Help w/the Budget...Living in Houston, He Won't Require a Flight to/from San Antonio...& He Shouldn't Beat Barrios Either...

    Good for Tank! Would have been a TERRIBLE look if he had missed it this time.

    Davis TKO 8 is what I'm sticking to.

    Santa Cruz Filled Out Nicely @ '30...He Ain't SKINNY Lil' Leo Anymore:eek:...

    That Said, Tank'll Be a Jr Welter or More by Tomorrow Night...Earlier Weigh-In Helps His Recovery..

    These "24-hour" weigh-ins sure as fuck ain't 24-hours anymore.

    20 years ago or so, the 24-hour weigh-ins occurred in the late evening.

    In recent years, it's been the early afternoon.

    Fuckin bullshit.

    davis definitely is helped by the early weigh in. he looked cracked out to me. nonetheless he should be too strong for santa cruz.

    I'm saying Davis in 8, but really a Davis stoppage in any round wouldnt surprise me. I could definitely see Davis inside 3-4.

    Why? Because SC has never faced a true puncher in his whole career. Which goes back to him always been protected.

    It's a Money Grab for Sure...

    Live Crowd in Attendance, No Less...Being Under CUNTservative Leadership in the State of Texas, Covid-19 Social Distancing Isn't ENFORCED Nearly as Much as Other Places...

    Same Reason Why Spence-Garcia was Moved to Texas; Live Gate...

    I noticed that too I was wondering why people were talking about the weigh-in already.

    Usyk and Chisorah weighed in today at about 1pm local time.

    Yes, it was HW but the UC guys all weighed in at the same time , too.

    Chisorah is about 40lbs heavier btw. Should be fun......I got the white guy.

    We've been paying so much attention to Usyk and Davis, that its getting overlooked that Inoue is the best fighter in today's lineup.

    Maloney gets dismantled inside of 5.
