[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Week two of the unofficial three week lightweight showcase is in the books and this division is on fire. There will be observers still concerned with the fights that have not happened at lightweight, yet, but the fights we are getting are more than enough.

Ryan Garcia can "chirp" all he wants, but until you hear Oscar saying something, it's not happening! Floyd, Tank, and Al were ready to give him a shot after he beat Campbell, before he started talking about Pacquiao, then mental health problems! He shouldn't be in the conversation with Tank, Loma, and Kambosos! He's (Garcia) basically the same level as Michel "Ali" Rivera! Maybe not on YouTube, but in the ring!

Davis “is getting on a roll against serious foes”? Wtf. Gamboa, Lsc, Barrios, and Cruz. Old gimpy Gamboa, old shop worn, pillow-fisted Lsc, b-level Barrios, and Cruz - who would be a serious foe if he had above average power with one ko in his last 6. This writer on the Davis hype train.

Cruz is a serious foe for any champion @ 135! Barrios is a serious foe for any champion @ 140!

Cruz is a serious foe for any champion @ 135! Barrios is a serious foe for any champion @ 140!

based off what? Their lone performances against Davis? What had either done prior to that? “Serious” foe at 12-1 odds ?

These 135 fights have to happen next with the winners fighting each other.

Kambo vs Teo 2
Loma vs Tank
Haney vs Garcia

The scumbags on NSB will never admit this.

Remember according to NSB these 2 are Mexican bums with no chance to beat Tank. They were only given fights because haymon likes to serve Mexicans up to his black boxers.

Just wait until they fight non pbc guys. Scumbags like ironchinhagler will suddenly give them credit.

It's the eye test! I had watched both Barrios and Cruz fight prior to Tank, so I knew what they would bring! Who did Kambosos fight before Teofimo, but someone still ranked him IBF #1. Right now I can tell you that Michel Rivera would be a problem @ 135, so would Chris Colbert @ 135, so would Subriel Matias @ 140, so would Montana Love @ 140, so would Arnold Barbosa @ 140. They don't have "names" on their resume, but I can see the talent without the "names." If I can, I know there are plenty of others in the business who can see it too!

I want to see Tank fight Prograis @ 140, GRJ @ 135, or Colbert (if he beats Gutierrez) @ 135! I understand the Latino angle, but show some love to "The Brothers," and come back to the East Coast!
