“Let me tell you the difference between this fight with Garcia. [Ryan] Garcia vs. Others [Hector Luis]First, this Garcia is bigger. he is strong Unlike the last Garcia who was just a tank, this Garcia is a big puncher.

“Tank Davis is that power guy. Okay. TNT. Garcia can punch especially with counter left hooks and he’s bigger. He’s bigger. Maybe he’s still filling in.” Up until a year ago, it was probably still growing.

“So you got a bigger guy. I don’t know if he can match the power of a tank, but he’s right there. But he’s probably speed, length and size.” Overtake the tank in. He is bigger, longer and faster.

“He’s got quick hands so he can get things going. Tank isn’t a slow guy. But Tank has handled all that before. He’s dealing with tall men. He usually fights tall guys, insofar as he is not a giant.

“So he knows how to take range, he knows how to close gaps, he knows how to make him give up height like he did with Raleigh, he knows how to set traps and make him shrink. I know how to get there,’ he said.

“So it’s going to be a big fight. Garcia has to control the outside like everyone else. [Hector] I was going to do it the other night.but he [Ryan] Better jab, longer jab, faster hands, more power.

“There’s something about him that makes Tank worry a little bit more and respect him a little more. He had to worry about the power of that left hook when he closed the gap. [from Ryan].

“It’s important. He’s got something in those areas that keeps Tank respected. Be a little careful with those areas because that’s important. Garcia controls the range and gives Tank the price of real estate.” must be paid.

“If you want to get close to me in real estate, it takes three left hooks. I would have had to fight it all night, there is no room for error.

“He had to stay focused all night. [Hector], was looking out of the ring to see what was happening in the stands. No.

“He had to stay focused on Tank Davis all night and stay consistent because of one mistake and a fightover with Tank Davis. I could, but the battle might be over.

“So what does Tank Davis have to do? He has to do what he does. is a clever fighter, he must use every trick in his arsenal, not just strength.

“He has to set a trap to get Ryan to go ahead and bite him. It is necessary to feint.

“The jab. Just like the other night, the jab is key for both fighters to control the outside range, the outside distance. The jab. Ryan Garcia’s jab has to be snappy.” No. It has to be hard and it has to be fast.

“We have to control the range. Geography has to be owned by Ryan on the outside, so we have to decide the conditions of the battle, the geography of the battle. Tanks want the geography to be close.

“The jab is key. Tank Davis’s jab isn’t thrown very often, but he can hit it straight, accurate, hard and aggressive. That’s probably what he was trying to do. Garcia. I’m not saying you’re defensive with it, but it will be something along the lines of how he marks his territory.

“There are a lot of matches we would like to see, but we probably won’t. This is something we would love to see. With 8 million followers.
