    For some reason at this point it feels like Davis is the old guy in his 3rd year of Senior class here . Assuming they all come back in form a couple are already scrambling for big gigs right off, Linares for Garcia and a supposed 'agreement' for Davis v Santa Cruz in the fall on ppv. Btw who's buying or pitching ppv in this economy? But yeh..there are 101 different directions fights can unfold at this point.

    Davis is still a massive question mark to me. More potential than payout still at this point and I think 135 is his plateau with that compact frame, dependence on reflex and repeated run ins outside of the ring. This extended layoff following that near one dimensional patchy showing with a one stilt Gamboa did him zero favors. Maybe that's a bit unfair but Davis really needs to screw his head on straight ASAP and be the phenom Mayweather held the stage for.

    Teo is who'd I put with the most momentum and pure fire in the belly but as with Davis I'm not sure about the weight between action. The guy reeks of the explosive legit package and seems to be growing up a bit mentally. Big on Loma and not to long ago that was laughed off and then he detonated Commey like sweaty dynamite. Loma needs a big deal and in a way Teo has the early fanfare and 'it' to carry some promotion. This one is going to be fun to watch unfold

    Ryan Garcia has done very well. Admittedly I found him pretty cringy but his speed and confidence in self are extremely helpful assets. Of all four though I think he has the most to answer in terms of consistent natural defense and taking a brick on the beard. He stands tall and late on that head stays still, but of course he's ripping off 5,6 punch volleys. Big flair big frame and surely Oscar will push to work him through bigger weight so like to see him step up, the Linares show at 135 (?) is the right route and they're banking on the highlight reel KO.

    Haney I just don't know. Of the four the one with the least plates on the table for me. He knocks on about greatness and somehow he's technically a two time champ in some circles but still feels like he is still a lighter shade of green. Clearly huge athleticism and pedigree with self promotion. If Fortuna and Campbell settle things for a trinket love to see Haney try to shine with winner.

    Will so much lost time and revenue promoters may very well need to make hard calls, go with quantity or quality building 'big' matches up? Resources, staff venues fan revenue etc will all be short..maybe this Twilight Zone we're in actually forces big round robin fights up front for once.

    Tank I think has the most talent and potential, but he seems to have the least motivation and the worst mindset. Because of that, I just don’t think that he will ever reach the top where I think he could get to.

    I have been big on Teofimo for a while. He has an awkward style and seems to be very athletic. I’m afraid that Loma might take something from him mentally if they fight at this stage, but we will see.

    Haney has the tools to be very good. I think he has the best head on his shoulders out of the 4 so I have the most confidence in him that he have a good career even if he has setbacks.

    Garcia has proven to be able to beat some decent fighters, but he still looks like one of those fighters that look great against lesser competition but proves to not be elite once he steps up. I could be wrong for sure, but I have just always gotten that vibe from him.

    Teofimo's the real deal for me, and when the smoke clears, he should be the one on top.

    Davis would be second for me, as much as have grown to dislike him. But we're talking results... so Davis to me is second. His power is undeniable, even if he DID take until the 12th round to get rid of a gimpy Gamboa.

    I'd put Garcia over Haney, although for sheer hype Garcia's got them ALL beat. Geez... when the media decides to fawn all over someone... all bets are off. Let's see if the reality lives up to the hype.

    Haney unfortunately comes in fourth in this particular race, as I think he gets blown out by any of the top three.

    I feel exactly the same about Teo, Haney and Garcia and I have nothing to add to your comments, I'm not so sure what to think about Tank, he could be the next Broner, or Berto, or the next leader of the division, even a top p4p fighter.
    Based on their resume I agree with Fenster rating, but for the future my money are on Davis, or if he blow it, I'l pick Haney.

    king ry is training with team canelo & eddy, could have all the backing to come out on top
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    I agree with your assessment, except I’ll add I don’t think Teo does well when he meets his own talent level. Nakatani was very good, I don’t begrudge Teo for struggling. I just didn’t like the way he struggled. He got very obvious when things weren’t working. He was trying things rather than making things happen.

    No one knows who'll come out on top.

    But as an assessment.

    Teo has the best win and resume in taken out a very solid champion in 2 like Commey

    Garcia has looked the most spectacular and eye catching.

    Haney visually looks the best from a stylistic point of view.

    Tank looks the most solid and durable.

    I honestly don't know who will come out on top and it could be any of the four.

    devin haney is tight as a drum. he'd fight much better if he'd just let himself relax a little, i'm sure of that. but out of all the new guys i think he's the best.
