Well, who you got? Ryan or Gervonta?
Who y’all got? Draw if not an early ko by tank.
Tank
Tank
Tank is too smart and Ryan is too flat footed. This is basically an exercise task for Tank on to how to dodge the speedy left hook. Ryan does have a punchers chance. This is why this will be a good fight!
Ryan. Under 5 rounds.
Speedy is a really good interviewer. Good questions, good follow ups, doesn't step over the guests, etc. There needs to be more like him.
best interviewer i’ve ever watched in this scene. He is genuinely interested, and I feel he only picks guests he is genuinely interested in, which prevents that awkward or fake feeling
Bro only asking celebrity questions. Who cares about meeting celebrities. He got a fight this weekend
@@amglex learned about his first k.o didn't know that before
@@amglex u a hater lol
@@orbform lets be real, he could have asked better questions. im a fan of tank
You can tell Tank is genuine because you gives the same exact experiences with the same detail every time. That speaks volumes on his character and being honest as a person.
It’s a script bruh
Literally no questioning of his own reality. Just knows exactly what is and what isn't. Always appreciated his growth in maturity over the years too. He's a future legend... and will continue to absorb gems w/ all the right people surrounding and supporting him.
yeah a guy that injured a pregnant woman in a hit and run, what a great guy!
Bruh was you even there? Your assuming! And how women are now a days!@@PandaBoy-zi2hg
His character also includes beating women
Tank is so level-headed. The fact that he keeps saying this is a 50/50 fight shows just how serious he is taking this and taking Ryan. I'm honestly a fan of both but following this fight closely, I've started to like Tank more. He just seems more humble and experienced.
I could honestly see this fight going either way but I got Tank in 8. Either way, respect to both these men putting everything on the line. One of the fights of our generation for sure.
That’s just him tryna sell the fight lol
@@hecticjdj7488 not rly hes been like this
@@hecticjdj7488 yeah not rly. Tank always respects his opponents.
It's not about to be humble, tank can't to formulate a simple answer you know he should hire a coach to learn he expression himself
Looks like you need to hire a grammar coach based on your comment. You can definitely use the help on learning how to write a sentence that makes sense.
“That’s against the rules brother” tank got me dead asf
Absolutely 😅😅
😂
Best part of the interview 😂
😅😅💯🦍
Ong😂😂😂
Tank is so down to earth. He has never let the money or fame get to his head.
Facts
They had excellent chemistry in this interview I would’ve thought they been known each other but these are my exact thoughts as well. For a guy to really come from nothing Tank seems like such a humble guy! Seems like he’s just following God’s path. I like how he always sounded shocked or surprised seeing people support him. It shows he’s really grateful and just living in the moment.
He has. But, he learned very quickly.
The interview kept a smile on his face you can tell he was genuinely happy to be interviewing a boxing great like tank Davis
You mean the interviewer?
@@premeone5947 lol yeah I noticed the typo afterwards
@@isaacjones-xt1bu it's ok none of us are perfect bro ..
@@isaacjones-xt1bu I think you can edit comments
@@ahmereware8063 na I like to keep it original
Speedy might be one of my favorite interviewers “ you literally survived a plane crash” 💀😂😂
This was a fire interview 💯 I was tuned in from the beginning till the end
Agreed. Take good questions. Tank was comfortable throughout the entire interview.
Except that inappropriate remark about Tyson.
@@yvetterenee8256 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dr. Tank Davis that’s crazy never would have thought that he wanted to be a veterinarian, he matured very well and is growing into an amazing boxer. Future hall of famer right there!!!
For sure, Tank already has the hall of fame locked in!! Mission complete my brother 💯💪🏾
Lot of people got dreams just lack the resources or knowledge or the support system to help them in achieving that thankfully tank had a love for boxing and a support system that has helped him achieve that
I love that Tank takes his fights serious and he understands the moment. 90% of the fighters talk about how there going to do this and that and get clapped.
I appreciate you realizing the definition of Real Gs move in silence most these fighter go from interview to interview saying they gone do this and that being animated just to be embarrassed or have a bad performance tank does the talking in the ring ‼️‼️‼️‼️when the time comes
It's called promoting ... they have to say that , otherwise no one would be interested. If Ryan said tank is better than him , and most likely will beat him ... would you watch it lol.
@@2quick2c35 but yet Hector Garcia wasn’t as animated better yet he spoke no English 😂😂there was mutual respect between them two and they did a 5 million dollar gate 20,000 in attendance and yet you miss the whole point and don’t understand someone being humble
@@2quick2c35 Tank is undefeated and he has always acknowledged the possibility of being beaten. That’s a good look from an undefeated fighter. Most undefeated pros don’t know what it’s like to loose. Ryan said he knocks Tank out in 2 rounds
Like who they all never fought each other yet so I don’t know who you talking about Shakur never lost devin never lost Ryan ain’t lost or tank so what do you mean
It is always a pleasure to witness these young men mature and carry themselves very respectfully. I come to really admire this young man and his talent, so proud of him. Great to see him more open and expressing himself in an articulate manner.
The way Speedy be laughing be KILLING me 😂😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀
Fr he be weak
Time stamp?
Came back to this interview after the knockout lol… Tank made me a believer
Tank Matured Alot as a Father as a Man and Promoter💯
Im surprised you arent hating for once
Cause he scared and he knows what’s coming
@@SpongeBobJellyFishes he never hates he speaks facts and he likes and respects tank
Facts!
You 🤡 pppppppppppppiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiddddddddddddddoooooooooo
I’m so happy everyone else that interviewed him always asked the SAME questions thanks for giving such a great interview!
Good job Tank, you're improving leaps and bounds articulating and expressing yourself and I'm proud of Brah. Just keep working on yourself and career and the world will be yours.
He’s maturing right before our eyes
Don’t need the world, stay close to what’s important. God, family and his integrity. Everything else will come
@@israelisreal7781 they were talking about hov/jay z when they said that
If you pay attention. Tank is more articulate when the conversation is amongst his peers (See Million Dollars Worth of Game) Podcast.
@@melxb thnx
The part about making his family stay home speaks louder than all the antics prior. My guy is locked in and knows this fight will be far from a cake walk.
Respect 🫡
How calm he is tells me he is focused and he’s not playing when you don’t have anything to say says it all
i’m not even into interviews like that but this was heat. appreciate y’all for putting this together
That was very humble of him to say it’s a 50/50 fight
80/20 Davis
@Boxing Fan my bad. Davis vs Ryan 80/20, Davis vs Haney 55/45, Davis vs Shakur 50/50 .
He Just know the true
@@MrAntiAvariciousI believe shakur has technical level for sure
But his punch is weak to face off tank
@Boxing Fan cap
Happy for Tank. You can feel from the first press conferences etc that it is not a natural thing for him to talk, to express himself etc.. but the improvement he's making are getting noticed! It's these people man, the ones who come from nothing, no role models no proper education that we should admire and follow the journey of ❤
❤💯💯🗣🗣
Gervonta is a deep thinker you can see his mind working through each question
Tank is a beautiful person inside and out someone who loves animals is always a really good person deep inside man also he doesn’t want to be someone who overshadows people coming up behind him that's so cool man he’s growing into a really great man proud of him
That’s Against The Rules Brother!!! That’s my new line going forward 😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂was weak when he said that
That comment had me dying 😂
😂😂😂😂yo deadass
Beating off 7 times a day is overly crazy 😂😂😂😂😂
😂
So much respect for this young man, the world at his feet but balances the element of swag, humility and confidence so well that it is never irritating, he comes from a tough background and you can tell he has been around the street life and probably still is at times, but realises that perpetuating that narrative is a bad look for those looking up to him so keeps it under wraps but is still true to who he really is, reps his people and community every single time!!!! how can you not root for this guy 👏
nobody could have said it better. 10000%%
Truly a humble individual who crashes into innocent drivers and flees the scene of a crime. He draws gunfire and crowd fighting at his live events. Keeps it real about domestically abusing his girlfriend. I'm sure people are convinced he is such a beacon of positive spiritual principles.
@@user-ji8kz8qx1t nah fr he said it perfectly lol
He's a very inspiring kid definitely & a legit cool dude
@@user-ji8kz8qx1t i don’t know who nobody is , but I think I G said it perfect
Great interview. Boxing is a outlet for so many kids and my hats off to the men who take time out to coach them and show love. I am glad Tank starting to do more interviews.
*28:20** "what..?" Tanks face when he says that 😂*
Tank came a long way as far as interviews and his speaking on camera in general! Glad to see he doing his thing! 💯
I have never seen him articulate this well. This interview just makes me like him even more. Just so humble and overall a nice human being. God bless 🤘
Great interview keep it up❤
Daymn i wanted more of this interview. Great stuff dude.
I love seeing this side of Tank, more mature and really articulating himself more. One of the best boxers I’ve ever watched. And to be so humble is honorable.
Tank has this calmness which amazes me. His confidence level is unmatched.
This interview will go down in history! Tank X Complex = Greatness!! Great interview
Good stuff 💪🏾
Looking forward to see tank handling his business and displaying his talents!
This guy grew alot and he is down to earth .. humble..and just real no bs..
Seeing all the hard work come through for him has got to be the greatest feeling in the world to tank
Us real ones 💕 you Tank rooting for you all the way
By far Tay best interview. Great Job Complex 💯✨📌
He said rolly had the hardest punch he ever felt . That's big for rolly. I always knew he was a hitter. He just gotta work on his defense and he'll be a beast
he needs to work on more than defense honestly.
He really needed a couple more years of experience under his belt
Naw I’m not even a boxer and yeah he hit hard but so do tank. In order to fight like that, then he’s got to work on more then defense
what minute did he say that?
I think rolly is a good fighter but as Ryan said in his episode, he has been training since he was 17 years old just, so he's not a experience fight and don't have traps in a fight
Of course he has punch but he need to fight like shakur and haney, guys who started train a long time ago... Create more strategy when he's fighting
Shout to the interviewer this is one of the best interviews I’ve seen in along time really bringing out the personality of Tank good stuff
Great interview! As a Baltimore native, I'm so proud of Gevonta! His humility and being a leader for the youth is inspiring. Keep grinding brother! Tank will be “The Face of Boxing!”♥️💯
This was a great in-depth interview thank you for a great session!!!!
He knows it’s 50/50 I love his focus 🔥🔥🔥🫡💪
Bro, not for anything, this was a great interview. Ya almost lost me when you said you were from Queens after Tank’s comment about his man being from BK🤣.
Great content! I’ll subscribe ✊🏾
Good interview! Not the same ole CZcamsr interview questions. Tank is getting better with articulating his answers.
Ryan has given Davis lots of reasons to go off on Ryan and he still shows his humbleness and decency. He doesn't have to trash Ryan and shows a certain amount of respect towards Ryan as a human being. Mr. Davis is a true professional. A good human being . Kudos to you young man. I hope you're spirit remains contagious. Godspeed
Name them
Decency?
@@user-zo4iz2nv5utons of trash talking and accusations. Plenty of reasons to go off on him. You must be new
@@Last_Chance. You riding tank ODE kid 🤣. Can’t even name those and now you accuse me of supposedly being new. Yeah just say you’re meat rider since it couldn’t be anymore obvious lol
@@user-zo4iz2nv5u I know you're extremely sore from riding Ryan's meat so hard like that but there's no need to be so sensitive. Im not going to name everything Ryan has said because that would take an hour at least. You should know what he's said anyway unless you're a new casual fan which seems to be the case. It's ok little guy you'll develop into a real man one day and you won't be such a sensitive little meat riding beta boy.
This is where you really have to respect Gervonta. Gervonta said this was a fight you don't won't to bring the family on both sides. This shows he respect Ryan as a fighter where he felt he can lose or he can be badly injured or vice versa for Ryan. This is a person that care and have good sportsmanship.
No lie this is one of G's best interviews yet! He was a lot more open and funny, good job speed! 👏
I think people are underestimating Ryan, he has real timing and speed, but Tank's boxing IQ just seems on another level. I think Tank learned from Floyd. If you watch Tank's fights he just downloads information on all his opponents first few rounds, just like Floyd, and then dominates in later rounds alongside his conditioning and power.
Even in this interview, you can hear him talk about him studying Ryan, and how he even be watching old Floyd fights on the way to his fight nights. He's a real student of the game.
Yeah a real student who like to wear purses😂😂😂 just stop please tank gonna get humbled by who doesn’t wear a purse
@@JesusSanchez-jc8ez you a 🤡
Tank didn’t learn nothing from floyd tank is his own fighter he did that
@@JesusSanchez-jc8ez
You’re Spanish and clearly on dope. You would feel that way 😩
@@mrchoptop5482 Yeah I think you're right actually. I think I overstated Floyd's influence on him.
My boy getting better at expressing himself. I know it’s a task that we talk comfortably in colloquialism but speaking in an unfamiliar native tongue can stumble us just like any foreigner. But he’s expressing himself intellectually
Very fire interview GTD
Great interview 🔥🔥🔥
Fire content!🔥🔥🔥SALUTE!💯
I'm just happy he said Kobe💜💛
This gotta be one of my fav tank interviews 😂😂
Great interview! I love when the interviewer asks questions that I had myself💯👏🏾
Been a massive fan of his boxing but this kid has become my favorite famous personality aswell this last 2 years, not bringing family to his wars is beyond commendable & honourable
I love this, I just watched Ryan’s a few hours ago now Davis’s is out, perfect timing
Your smoked
@@PL8YB0Y_ lol wym I’m smoked?
GTD need to drop some merch already. 💯
Thats against the rules brotha 😂 this man tank naturally funny af 😭 this interview was gold
Speedy is a really good interviewer. Some great great interviews this year
To come from the inner city especially Baltimore along with being in the group/foster system, the streets ect... and to becoming The Face Of Boxing is a truly beautiful thing!! He is the new Tyson 2.0 I haven't seen nobody hit just like Tyson since Tyson himself!! 😂❤
I just said the same.
@@nanettematthews2264 to be honest I think a lot of boxing fans got tired of seeing Mayweather all the time! 😆😂 he has been the face of boxing for along time I'm glad to see he was able to put his own feelings emotions ect... aside to help the young man achieve his goal! Tank is here and I have a feeling he ain't going nowhere soon!! I'm loving it, he is deff putting the fire back into boxing!! 👀👀💯💯💪🏼💪🏼❤️❤️
@@TheLifeOfTeeMarie I can appreciate that. I am a Mike Tyson Stan and I can recall the frenzy the entire world was caught up into when Mike dominated the boxing world. Yes Mayweather has been that dude for a minute. But I hope to see another time when boxing has everybody on the edge of their seats! 👏 ✌ 👏
Great way to carry himself and to repercent the sport. He is a great example of what a fighter is and should be like. The sport is not a game a fighter could be humble. But he or she needs to have that dog in them also, and with Tank, it shows. Can't wait for the twenty 2nd.
I like ty e set up and the interview you are doing….just gave me a awesome adding to my already plan
Love it n def love him!
This was a great interview
The respect and humbleness for the fight and fighter … truly salute Tank.
Tank an elite icon boxer with the best hands on the boxing circuit🤌🏾🫡
Facts 💯
How if he hasn’t fought the top dogs in the divisions he’s competed in? Gary, Loma, Taylor are his legacy fights but passed on them 🤦♂️
Who sends Gervonta messages through his manager?
@@palemonhurtado8914 Devin nor Shakur has fought no elite fighters. Y'all always criticize Tank for who he fights when Devin and Shakur both have been fighting nothing but Uber drivers and dish washers.
@@kingyeleseh177 Devin fought Kambosos for undisputed in Australia and is about to fight Loma
Shakur defeated the #1 130 pounder in Valdez, and did so easily
Who has tank fought?
Dope interview from both sides 💯💯
This is one of the best if not the best interview of Tank - good job 👏
Great interview. Speedy is a great interviewer. Tank improve and articulate his self very well in this interview.
MAD LOVE FOR TANK 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Hey, great interview bro.

His answer to the question of “is this a fight you’d bring your family to?” Says how locked in he is. Tank in 9 by KO
I think so too
That whole segment about training camp rituals had me dying 😂😂😂
Definitely tells you the hype and magnitude of this fight when Tank does an interview with Complex and All The Smoke. Can't wait for the 22nd!
Whoever is picking these spaces for the interviews needs a raise

This is a really good interview!!!!
38:17 had me cracking up 😂
Between the Full Access episode and this interview, Tank has a comedic side. He's a hilarious dude.
Bro... you already won the fight...
"With confidence, you have won even before you have started!"...
🖤💚💛
Such a good interview

Speedy (the interviewer) is LITERALLY a vet bruh!!😂😂 been to college specifically for media journalism.. this IS his career.. he SHOULD be good..🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️

Can’t wait for this fight 🥊
This guy is absolutely the best thing going..not just in boring but life. I've never heard him curse or criticize
