Who wins Gervonta “Tank” Davis vs Frank Martin?
Scott Christ (27-5)
As an apart: After a 4-1 set in Riyadh on June 1, the place Wil and Patrick had tough 1-4s and John went 3-2, I’ve opened a large lead in our “standings.” It is a lot of stress that I’m not used to coping with as a result of I’m normally scrapping for respectability at finest. So if you happen to’re remotely on this side of those posts, keep watch over how I’d begin completely screwing it up no later than September.
I feel Martin might be on this struggle on the playing cards for some time. I count on Davis to be tentative and calculating, as he just about at all times is, and he’ll really feel out Martin’s velocity, timing, and defensive duty for half the scheduled distance. However Tank has the game-changing energy, and Martin doesn’t. It can make the final word distinction, but it surely gained’t be the one factor. Tank’s only a higher fighter. Davis TKO-10
Wil Esco (20-12)
I’ve already alluded to this in some earlier posts however whereas Martin will come into this struggle targeted and in form, I feel the expertise disparity will play a component on this struggle. I feel that is vital as a result of Martin isn’t a extremely huge puncher so this struggle will doubtless make its means into the again half. As soon as we begin attending to the later rounds I imagine Tank can have already began to put on on Martin and it will likely be a matter of time earlier than he will get caught with a giant one which spells the top for Martin. Principally, I feel Martin hangs powerful early and will get drummed out late. Davis TKO-9
John Hansen (21-11)
Tank Davis is a watch check nice, however his fame and monetary leverage make his greatness largely eye check solely. He gained’t struggle anybody that’s an actual menace until it’s on inequitable phrases or timing.
Frank Martin didn’t appear to actually need this struggle a 12 months in the past, however funds or an absence of different choices have introduced him to it now. Ought to we count on a shock upset within the matchup between the man who didn’t need it within the first place and the man who wouldn’t have taken it if there have been any critical doubts concerning the end result? No. Davis TKO-8
Patrick Stumberg (23-9)
I actually suppose Martin’s going to make Davis work. His velocity is among the many finest within the division, his jab is crisp, his physique assault is nasty, and there’s no telling how Davis’ layoff and stint in jail will have an effect on his efficiency. If Davis’ timing isn’t there, I can positively see Martin constructing an insurmountable lead.
On the similar time, it’s exhausting to recover from how completely Artem Harutyunyan blunted Martin’s offense with uncooked aggression. Davis isn’t that type of swarmer, clearly, however that F**k-You Energy of his places the concern of God into individuals actual fast.
I see this going considerably like Davis’ struggle with Garcia. Martin comes out scorching and banks a number of rounds earlier than a giant punch shells him up and provides Davis the respiration room he wants to search out the killshot. Davis TKO-7
