    When Tank beats him that would be your excuse. So predictable.

    And see that's what people sleep on. He's FASTER then Taylor who I think is also an excellent fighter.
    And when Tank wants to he can box with the best of them.
    The difference might come down to that Taylor is more disciplined where as Tank has his moments where your like why is he doing that?!?!
    Tank can be an extreme head case.
    Check out his clips in the unpaid ranks and you'll be shocked at how well he can box.

    Doesn't keep me warm at all tbh, I wasn't a fan of either guy.

    It's just my opinion on who would win.

    Tell Top Rank to call but they won’t.

    Because Pacquiao was afraid of needles for the blood tests taking him another 6 years to grow the balls.

    I don’t agree in that it’s like saying if Tyson or Foreman did not have that power. Power is part of the equation but not all of it. Tank collected data on Barrios in the early rounds before he switched gears in the mid rounds to make the fight trajectory clear. People not you did not realise how good Barrios. You will remember I had been talking about how good he was before the fight. Tank has explosive power but it’s more than that there is ring craft there. Highest compliment I can pay Tank is he scores the types of knockouts Mike Tyson and Uncle Azumah Nelson use to get. Having that type of punching power is one thing but combining with real boxer ability, spirit and instinct is deadly.

    I'm not interested in excuses, I'm not a fan of either man.

    I'm lamenting that we didn't see the fight.

    If you'd exchanged posts with me more you'd know I don't ever engage in the fan boy stuff.

    Pac and Floyd were greats. The fact we didn't see them fight in their prime is a travesty.

    Not sure all the guys you mentioned will beat La Azteca. Prograis just might get the Tank treatment.

    No I won’t be shocked because I have had the inside track on Tank for ages. Taylor is some I rate highly but Tank is special. My only concern in the past was for outside external influences not to side track him but he has got his **** together.

    Fault was Pacquiao because he knew what he was doing.

    Again, I'm not interested in who's to blame. Makes no difference to me. I'm not a fan of either man.

    You are a good guy I am just sharing my honest opinion, analysis and assessment. We don’t have to agree but enjoy our discussion with the civility on display which others could learn from.

    And for every poster who blames one, there's another who blames the other.

    Wish we'd have seen the fight in their primes so we wouldn't have to debate how it went.

    Excuse ? No its a fact. A fighter past his prime isn't as good as he was IN his prime. For example. Just Anthony Joshua fought and beat a 41 year old Klitschko does not mean he'd beat a prime Klitschko. I used that example because i know you're a Joshua fanboy. "NIGERIAN PRIDE" LOL. And Tank is too much of a scary ass cherrypicker to fight Josh Taylor now. He wont even fight Lomachenko now. He'll wait until he's past it. You're just a bonehead who can't comprehend that
