Ryan Garcia says he isn't fazed by that explosive Gervonta Davis knockout -- telling TMZ Sports he's lickin' his chops to get a crack at Tank.
"I'm extremely confident I'd beat that boy down," Garcia tells us ... "He's just a big bully."
Garcia and Davis are 2 of the top young boxers in sports and it seems like it's only a matter of time before they meet in the ring.
Garcia tells us straight up he'd rather fight Tank sooner than later.
Garcia says he gives Tank props for that monstrous 6th-round knockout of Leo Santa Cruz this past weekend -- but he's not scared 1 bit.
"It didn't even make my pulse go up."
Garcia even has a message for Davis -- "Don’t run away from the specialness. I can hit like that too. I can hit like that too."
Next up for Garcia is Luke Campbell. The 2 are set to do battle on December 5 and Ryan says he's looking to show the world why he should be the obvious next fight for Davis.
"We all know we can both knock people out. We all know we can put people to sleep that don't belong in the ring with us. But, one day we got to step up and go against someone who can also get slept. And, that’s what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to get in there and give fans a fight they’ll remember for the rest of their lives."

One company, Arcus Group LLC, is raking in $988,788 to secure the perimeter of the White House on Election Night. Another company, Showcall Security Services will collect $1.6 mil to keep Joe Biden safe in Delaware Tuesday night.
Each company will construct barriers and walls to keep people out. As you've seen by now, the perimeter of The White House has already been fortified.

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A judge in Cleveland on Monday tossed professional boxer Adrien Broner in jail after holding him in contempt of court as part of a civil lawsuit filed by a woman he assaulted at a nightclub in 2018.
Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court Judge Nancy Margaret Russo found the 31-year-old Broner failed to cooperate with multiple deadlines she set for him to hand over documents and other evidence showing why he has not been able to pay the more than $800,000 judgment the judge ordered him to pay the woman in December.
Russo cited an Instagram video posted this week showing Broner handling large stacks of money after saying in an Oct. 5 court filing in that he had just over $13 in cash. Russo ordered Broner to remain in jail until he provides complete and truthful information about his finances to the woman’s attorney, Subodh Chandra and the Chandra Law Firm.
“Mr. Broner has continually defied every court ordered I’ve given,” Russo said during the hearing. “The jig is up today.”
Russo set a Wednesday hearing for Broner and his attorney, Stanley Jackson, to show they are complying in the case, and Cuyahoga County sheriff’s deputies placed Broner in handcuffs and led him out of the courtroom.
Broner, who last boxed in January 2019, said he is preparing for a fight scheduled in January that will bring him "a significant purse” and he expects to be able to pay the judgment in full after the fight.
Broner was originally charged in November 2018 with gross sexual imposition, a fourth-degree felony, misdemeanor sexual imposition and abduction, a third-degree felony, after a then-35-year-old Wickliffe woman accused him of sexually assaulting her at a nightclub in Cleveland’s Warehouse District neighborhood during the 2018 NBA Finals.
Broner pleaded guilty in April 2019 to assault and unlawful restraint, both misdemeanors, and Judge Sherrie Miday placed him on probation for two years. He was arrested in Miami in March on drunken-driving charges, and Miday in August sentenced Broner to seven days in jail for violating his probation.
The woman filed a civil lawsuit against him, and Broner did not hire a lawyer or show up to any court hearings, resulting in Russo ruling in the woman’s favor. Chandra’s firm then requested information about his finances after he didn’t pay the judgment, and ordered him to supply the information. The coronavirus pandemic pushed hearings back several months, and Russo ultimately ordered Broner to hand over the information before he was set to sit for a deposition scheduled last Friday.
Chandra said the information Broner and Jackson handed over before the deposition was incomplete and insufficient to the point he could not prepare questions for a deposition. Russo set Monday’s hearing for Broner and Jackson to show they should not both be held in contempt of court.
