[Boxing- USA] 29.4/ 23:00 G.Davis- R.Garcia

This fight has been a long time coming but luckily we’re still going to get it while we have the two fighters in their primes. I probably would give Gervonta Davis the experience edge here despite not having what I’d consider to be all that great a resume, particularly considering his profile over the years. And while I could go on and on about my own personal grievances towards both fighters, this particular match isn’t one I have any issues with.

Simply looking at both fighters inside the ring, it’s clear to me that Tank is the more polished boxer of the two, but he’s also been increasingly dependent on his power turning the tide in recent fights. I suspect Tank is going to start the fight a little bit tentatively as he tries to feel out Garcia’s tactics while looking for openings. That in and of itself will likely cause him to drop some of the early rounds on the scorecards, but I think the middle rounds of this fight is where things really start to heat up.

By the midpoint of the fight I see Garcia with a slight lead on the scores before Tank makes a conscious effort to rally back and put a hurting on Garcia. This, I expect, will be where the fight is ultimately decided. Garcia is used to having the spotlight on him but the lights will be brighter in this outing, and once Garcia has any lapses in his focus because he’s so content with the work he’s been doing, I see Davis tagging him with a punch that quickly changes the tenor of the fight. Garcia has heart so I don’t expect him to quickly fold, but I do think he gets gunned down in a firefight once it starts trending in that direction.
