Former master Mikey Garcia talks to Fight Hub TV about what he thinks about the duel of Gervonta “Tank” Davis and Lamont Roach on the horizon and why he is not excited about the perspective of fighting Shakur Stevenson in Shakur Stevenson. Check some of what he had to say.
Garcia on a tank vs. Roach fight
“I Think Tank is one of the best warriors, definitely in a delicate division. I don’t think Roach is a huge threat to the tank. Tank is very talented, very qualified, and also at the moment. Huge where he has this power to hit and is confidence.
“It is complex to go against Tank. Again, not to respect your opponent, but Think Tank is a beast, and he is a bone that proves every fight and probably won this fight.”
In the prospective VS Shakur Stevenson Fight tank
“Actually, I’m not a gigantic fan of this fight … Now I believe that Shakur Stevenson is also a great, great warrior. He has skills, he has talent, a great boxer, super talented with football, speed, reflections, reflections, reflections, reflections, reflections, reflections, reflections, reflections, reflections, reflections, reflections, the best.
“But as a fan of a fight that turns me off. Now, as a warrior, I applaud him, I understand and give him respect for skills … But as a fan of a fight that turns me off. I will decide rather a sea tank, for example Lomachenko, that I know that Lachachenko is fighting there, although he also has great foot injuries and speed and reflections – but he is there to fight.
“Shakur Stevenson will be lifeless, and not so exhilarating in a duel and I think that is why he will have difficulty with these great fights. Until he changes into his style and appears a little more, maybe then he will get some of these fights, no Think Tank fights with him or anyone who is a grave threat.
It will become a superstar in state-of-the-art boxing is not uncomplicated. One of the way Vantieft to do this-at least give yourself the best chance to accept one of them to beat one of the few already well-established stars, if you are lucky that you will have one at the weight or near your weight.
For David Benavidez and David Morrell Jr. This man was there. Their couple was in a superceive weight and doing what they could fight with Super Middeweight and the cashier king of Canelo Alvarez.
But with Canelo handing over any man, the Davids moved to a slight massive weight in 2024. There was no Canelo at the age of 175, but was Artur Betteur Betterbiev and Dmitry Blivol, who are now entangled for what will be on the back. February 22 at Riyadh.
Once again, Benavidez (28 years elderly) and Morrell (27 years elderly) found themselves without great dance partners. And they finished waiting.
Benavidez and Morrell simply paid attention to themselves and equalize on February 1 in the main event PBC Pay-Per-View from Las Vegas.
There are no global titles on the line, but it is a fight for high rates for both men, with the ability to face the winner of Betterbiev vs Biblical 2 on the table this year.
Benavidez (29-0, 24 KO) debuted in a slight massive weight in June last year, not quite blowing the door against the qualified former Titlist Oxandr Gvozdyk, but won comfortably. Morrell (11-0, 9 KO) had a similar one in August, gaining a decision against Radivoje “Warm Rod” Kaladjzic.
It is true that no David hit airy degrees of heavyweight like the strength of nature, but they both defeated difficult, experienced opponents, and at the same time showed that they did not have to beat anyone to win their fights.
Especially Morrell has gained a reputation of a really brutal blow, but in his game there is a depth of skill, even if he is not a classic Cuban stylist. And although Benavidez does not intend to remind anyone about Floyda Mayweather or Terenka Crawford, over the years he has sharpened his general set of skills and is more than about the fact that he is more, a tough guy.
It is understandable that the desire for fans will see the fireworks of these people, although it may be a more tactical approach early. However, at some point these guys will land good shots, and the fight could airy a real fire at any time.
Benavidez and Morrell have increased promotional hostalts and although they are published much more often than justified, they are two men with very real fries on the shoulders. Benavidez is tired of waiting for great fighting opportunities, and Morrell does not have a patient to spend the needed all the time to get tired of waiting for his own.
It is also a challenging fight to predict, without obvious favorites on paper. Banavidez, a multiple owner of titles at 168 pounds, probably turned out to be a bit more, but Morrell represents a recent challenge, too huge, he is robust, he is not someone who Benavidez will be able to physically bully, although these are two ways in the match.
The winner will therefore have to provide something recent to raise his hand and no man should expect that this time it will be uncomplicated. This should not be, and together with Benavidez and Morrell we have a few fighters who want to take risks and get them on a longer way.

At the end of 2021, Brandon Figueroa AND Stephen Fulton With great scrap metal for the Super Bantameight of the titles, and Fullon won the controversial decision of the majority. They again measure at the main support at the Pay-Per-View point, now as a feather scale, from the Figueroa defensive title of WBC. Their styles had the last time in Conumping fashion, and both Figueroa (25-1-1, 19 KO) and Fulton (22-1, 8 KO) remain in the first years, so it can certainly be another good.
Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz will stay on 140 pounds, despite losing to Jose Valenzuela in his last fight, taking Angel Fierro In 10-Rundzier. Pitbull (26-3-1, 18 KO) would probably be better in 135, but there will be possibilities on both if he won. He is expected to do it, but Fierro (23-2-2, 18 KO) is a difficult warrior and has some power. It can be a really good action struggle, it can be more competitive than Cruz expects.

“(Hes) 23, from Cali, Mexicans, he signed a contract with Matchroom – he lost, he can bounce. I am 36 years aged with Omah, nebraska, bone through hell to get here, and I mean hell, and not only in boxing, army, street shot, bone, bone, divorced, bone.

At the moment, Yarde 3-0 over confined opposition from the brave time, but effort against Artur Betterbiev, while Arthur 5-1 from the rematch with the victory of Liam Cameron and the defeat from Dmitrira Biblical.
In medium weight, Liam Smith (33-4-1, 20 KO) will try the last wholesale opposite Aaron McKenny (19-0, 10 KO). It would be an intriguing player of the intersection before the catastrophic rematch of Smith from Eubank; As it seems to be tea as a victim.
Good things appear in the cruiser’s weight.
