    I have my doubts about Ryan taking this fight but Golden Boy may as well do it now because he’s not gonna get any better fighting bums.

    I think Cruz stands a good chance to lay him out.

    Finally get to see a real test for Garcia and see if he really is what he's hyped up to be. I'm willing to take my humble pie if Ryan actually does manage to beat Cruz in convincing fashion.

    If Ryan wins this fight, Golden Boy shouldn’t wait to get him a shot at Tank. I don’t see Ryan holding up mentally to have a long career. He’s too immature and self destructive.

    Cruz would out-box the ponderous Garcia

    If Ryan’s power cannot hurt or at least make Cruz hesitant, he could be fucked.

    Best case for us as fans, this matchup will end up as a poor man's version of Khan-Maidana.

    Ryan is essentially a poor man's Khan, and Cruz is essentially a poor man's Maidana.

    That's saying a lot, cos AK and MM were some pretty flawed stuff.

    Neither were greats, or anything close, but Khan was much better than Garcia and Maidana was much better than Cruz.

    My point is, hopefully this is a fun fight the way Khan-Maidana was.

    Ryan is now the only young lightweight still not stepping up with a top fighter.

    Shakur, Haney, hell even Rolly, they're all gettin in with top guys.

    it's clear why - guy isn't half as skilled as Haney or Shakur. Rolly doesn't even belong in the convo - he already lost to a mediocre opponent - why wouldn't he step up?

    I dunno if Ryan could beat Rolly.

    They're about equally mediocre.

    Not sure what the Hell Ryan has done to put him on some entirely different pedestal from Rolly.

    And no, stopping a faded Campbell, who wasn't all that good to begin with, isn't enough.

    Campbell is a loser. Rolly at least has a retarded confidence about himself.

    Rolly is a fucking bum.

    He will never, ever come close to beating anyone a tenth as good as even a faded Campbell.

    Anyone with two braincells should be able to just watch Garcia and then watch Rolly and tell which is one better.

    Retard confidence means less than nothing. This guy was arrogant too.

    What I do know is that Ryan would do no better against Tank than Rolly's gonna do.

    Romero lands any of these type shots on Ryan, and Ryan could go. He (Ry) keeps his head in the air, and has no defense.

    More relevant to next week's thread, but looking at those Rolly-Yigit highlights...

    I dunnooooooo man. Rolly looks more dangerous than we've been giving him credit for. I mean, Baranchyk couldn't drop Yigit. He swelled his face, but he couldn't drop him. Rolly was destroyed him.

    I hope Tank is taking him seriously, cause idk. I officially think Rolly is live next week. Still taking Davis by stoppage, but I truly would not be all that shocked if Rolly stops Tank.

    I think it all depends on how Rolly can weather that initial rush. Sometimes Tank tends to have lulls in the middle rounds. If Rolly is up to the task, he might have a chance at taking advantage of it.

    I clearly have more than two brain cells when it comes to this sport.

    If your position is that Ryan is better, cool, its an acceptable opinion to have.

    No need to be an arrogant lil shit about it.

    I was calling upsets not many predicted literally before you were born.

    You can have more than two brain cells and still say stupid shit.

    Ryan Garcia would batter and pummel Rolly.

    And he'd do a helluva lot better than Rolly will tomorrow.

    The guy is fucking terrible and the only reason he's gotten this chance is his mouth.

    Its far from stupid because Ryan has done fuck all to separate himself from Rolly.

    As for the second part, I am 100% positive that Rolly is more dangerous for Tank than Ryan would be.

    We'll see next week, but rewatching the Yigit fight is making me think deeper about it.

    And no, I am not implying that Yigit is on the same planet as Tank.

    But I am saying that Rolly has more pop than I had given him credit for.

    I’m gonna be honest, I think Ryan Garcia actually sucks. He’s just not good. And it’s not a given that he’s better than Rolly. And if he is, he sure as hell hasn’t proved it.

    I used to compare him to Khan, but he’s not even as good as Khan was, even in his pre-Roach 135 lb days.

    Garcia actually looks a lot like Berlanga. Ponderous and stiff. Predictable. Lacking variety. And can’t take a shot.

    It’s debatable if he could beat Rolly, and it’s pretty much a certainty he can’t beat any of the top guys at 135 lbs.

    Ryan is a fucking pussy...the Ben Simmons of boxing. I had high hopes for that skinny cunt...

    Rolly best shot is if Tank comes out blazing wanting to fuck him up and goes wild.....and Rolly can catch him with something early..first few rounds.

    I hope Rolly doesn't get intimidated by Tank speed and goes into conservative mode...RETARDED CONFIDENCE like X said..use it or get fuck..ed
