    Josh Taylor will never be the A side in the US against Tank. Nobody cares that he is the so-called undisputed champ. Ain't nobody gon pay to see him like they will Tank. Tank is a star and he ain't taking no shorts. Look who his promoter is. Tank is knocking people out in gruesome fashion and then knocking people clean off their feet. That's what people wanna see. Taylor ain't doing that. He gon make just as much or more by being the B side in the US than being the A side in the UK. Tank gon make his money regardless, even if he goes back to 135 and run upon Devin or Loma or Teo. Plus he can get at Garcia and make a ton of cash. Taylor better act like he got some sense and get in the B lane.

    Funny how clowns like u probably picked Leo to beat Tank, then tank KO's him and then u say Leo was to small. He goes up in weight to 140 to fight a much bigger opponent who was considered top five 140 and KO's him, and u stay last person he fought was Pedrazza lol. Fool Tank is in his prime now and will most likely be back at 130 or 135, and will have a chance to fight plenty of the top guys there. It's not his fault Ryan Garcia backed out and ducked fighting him. So the Barrios fight was made in place of it. Again u claim he ducking, but who have you named that has called him out to make a fight with him? Learn what ducking is idiot first before claiming it.

    Doesn't matter.

    If Tank wants to be the best, he better do what Taylor asks of him

    These are AJ figures showing why he is the A Side fighter. Canelo figures are the same type of thing. This is the type of trajectory Tank and Erroll Spence Jr are on. Unfortunately JT and Terence Crawford by comparison can’t draw flies.

    @lufcrazy you can BS with opinions but not with facts. The reason Martin fought AJ was because he was going to make life changing money. Only stupid fools reject a fight when the A side comes calling.

    But you not seeing it is your problem, not mine. I can take a horse to water, but I can't make it drink.

    You prove my point there, do you really think AJ takes more than 50% against the winner of Fury/Wilder?

    Of course he won't.

    And this is why you're in the wrong.

    If AJ wants to fight the winner of the HW championship he will have to accept his drawing power might well earn him 50% but it won't give him the lions share against the divisional champion.

    He is the divisional champion. I think he was prepared to share 50:50 with Fury until the crap Fury pulled this year and as for Wilder no way will he give him 50:50.

    Everyone regards Fury vs Wilder as being for the true HW crown.

    But again you prove my point for me. Why would Fury get 50% when AJ is the a side? Because there is more to this than who sells the most PPV fights.
