There's literally no reason why Tank and Mikey can't fight next after Cruz. Mikey still has a name and let's be honest, Tank ain't looking at killers. So Mikey, even coming off a humiliating loss, is no worse than any of Tank's opponents. In fact, Mikey brings the most Mexicans outside of Clenelo.
Id love that fight, but can Mikey be disiplined enough to get down to 140? Maybe for the Tank fight he can. Swoved.
Tank-Mikey would be a good one. At least Tank would be fighting someone who is still probably half decent.
Mikey is past his due by date. Has been for a couple years. He's been sleeping in silk pajamas for too long.
His time has been and gone. I don’t think he was ever truly elite. Would have liked to see him keep his discipline and stay at 135/140
Ellerbe already stated that Tank won't be fighting non PBC fighters. Confirming basically that will effectively turn him into another Wilder just fighting bums on PBC.
If Rollie’s situation is cleared up by the time the Cruz fighter is over, then that fight is going to be next
Mikey looks shot. That means Tank might actually grow a set and fight him. Prime Mikey crushes Tank. Not so much these days.
This is a good fight for both to make money. I don't think Mikey has what it takes to be back, but he is a real 'tank'.
