I’m leaning Shakur, but Gervonta can start outpointing him with power shots early and drag him into a slugfest. Gervonta can also frustrate Shakur with his distance control. Shakur will have to stalk him successfully and exploit Gervonta’s MANY openings while remaining defensively responsible. Also, Shakur is the handsome crowd pleaser so Gervonta may have to knock him out-easier said than done.

Stevenson, Tank has a good puncher's chance though. Shakur's long guard and otherworldly ability to judge distance is going to give Tank massive problems, as is the size advantage with the superior infighting skill. Tank's still an incredible athlete with high fight IQ though so good chance he does something clever and catches Shakur at mid range with a shot, but at long and close range, huge disadvantage. If it goes 12 it's a UD for Shakur, easy.

A dream fight indeed. Both are highly skilled fighters who know the ins and outs of the sport. Shakur has a great understanding of distance but I don't see that nullifying Tank's power so I'm taking Tank.

I love the way he combines his athletic ability and power along with his technique and IQ, he has what it takes to be a generational type of fighter.

@@TheModernMartialArtist I think people overlook Tank’s technical skills as far as being able to box really well and having great movement when he uses it. Tank is a special talent no doubt with incredible Tyson like type of power and great boxing ability, but my only issue with Tank is his weak resume. He has beaten some good fighters that are considered big dangerous punchers like Ryan Garcia, Mario Barrios, Leo Santa Cruz, Rolly, and Issac Cruz. But those guys that he beat are not elite in terms of skill level. I really don’t know at this point how good Tank truly is until I see him face more elite competition like a Teo, Shakur, Haney, Loma, or even a Frank Martin level fighter.

I wouldnt say reign SUPREME! But he is definitely one of the most skilled guys in boxing right now. But until he fights Loma, Haney, Shakur, or hell even go up and fight Teo, i cant really say how good he is. As much as the garcia fight was insane in terms of shaking up the modern boxing game, it wasn’t the most skillful opponent for tank, thats for sure.

@@NeverGoFullRetard415 well, as much as I’d like to agree. I can’t. I can see Shakur, Haney, and Loma outworking and outmaneuvering tank; although tank is one of the most highly skilled boxers in the world, he is in a division of killers. They may not have the most power, but most of them have enough. The way i see it, he had trouble against Pitbull cruz, and Pitbull imo gets mollywhopped (not knocked out tho) by most other top lightweights like shakur loma and haney. I love tank, but he’s still unproven. Ryan garcia had the footwork of a little girl in their fight and was loading up on his punches more than a wannabe thug in a street fight, of course tank was gonna win. Tank needs to prove himself.

Can you cover Chocolatito Gonzalez and the other fighters from the golden era of Super Flyweight? Juan Francisco Estrada and Srisaket Sor Rungvisai are also two of the most skilled fighters to ever live. It would also be amazing if you covered some of the more overlooked Japanese greats in the lower weight classes. Kenshiro Teraji, Kazuto Ioka and Kosei Tanaka don't get enough love really, and Junto Nakatani may be on the rise as well. Hiroto Kyoguchi has had a great career and hopefully can come back from the loss to Teraji.

To master aggression in boxing you have to treat it like a switch. If you keep that switch on full time your turning off the “chess mind”required to find your openings and will ultimately gas out (particularly as you age). To go the full 12 rounds with peak mental clarity you have to be relaxed as much as possible, always calculating and thinking ahead. Tanks ability to switch between aggression and relaxed is what makes him so great and his highlights so satisfying to watch, haha (Prince Nassem is another example of this).

Haney is the 135 WBC Champion in recess to go fight a 140 fight. He has all his Hardware for 135. And Davis has been HANEY MANDATORY with his baby belt for over a year now since Haney beat Kambosas the first time. Your Tinky doesnt push for his mandatory for a reason. Even his uncle Ellerbe said if the organization try to push Davis to fight Haney that they will relinquish his baby belt. 😂 But you man fans dont speak on that though 👀🤫 Davis isnt fighting ANY Elite black fighter. Ever. No one at 130-135-140 has a better resume than Haney and Loma. Davis never held the super belt at 135. AND WONT ACTIVATE HIS MANDO TO FIGHT HANEY either.
