I'll be watching him again. He was entertaining and that's all that matters. **** that undefeated record crap, it means nothing.

Needs to move up to 147, may be able to take a punch better.

Kick a man while he’s down. Your parents raised you well, they must be proud of you

I thought Barrios was just naturally bigger but Once i found out that was his 5th weight class moving uo I automatically knew he was getting stopped, Tank didn’t fight someone “bigger “ than him. He stopped someone his own size. Big deal

This Texan fought like the Aztec warrior he is. I was very impressed with his heart and most importantly how he fought back after being hurt and knocked down twice. He came back to sting tank like no one else. He should stick around 140 and attempt to make some fights over at top rank and make a run for #1 contender for the wbo, wbc, or ibf

Is there something in the haymon/froid contract where a fighter thats clearly there to lose has to hype up the guy who whooped him?

He needs to change trainers

He needs to change trainers

Fighters don't need to always switch trainers after getting whipped. No trainer could have made much difference. Tank Davis is just a great fighter. He's just as fast as he is strong, and just as smart as he is fast. Together, that's a whole lot for any fighter or any trainer to overcome

barrios would easily beat taylor. tank picked the harder fight. barrios will prob be champ for the next 10 plus years at 140 and 147
