    What the **** are you talking about numbnuts? I don't give a goddamn what Tank was setting him up for, he was losing rounds. You don't score rounds for someone because of a gameplan they might have for the later rounds.:lol: No wonder you're a **** scorer. And yes, it was pretty obvious Tank was trying to time him, but he did the same thing against Cruz, and it didn't pay off.

    Tank isn't a boxing master. He has skills but he can be aggressive and bang it out or look to load up and get the onehittaquitta. He was fine with losing rounds because he was looking specifically for the stoppage. It could've backfired and he could've lost but it didn't he got the ko win. Tank played the role of ko puncher tonight.

    He was terrified of getting into an honest exchange just like he was against oompa loomp Cruz. Funny how he doesn't fight like that when he's facing geriatric shot leprechauns and all these 122-126 pounders they've been feeding him, eh?

    If Ryan can get set up by Campbell he can get set up by Tank

    He hurt his hand against Cruz until that point he was on Cruz control. Wishful thinking he wasn't hurt against Cruz and he wasn't hurt in this fight.

    Rolly was more composed than I expected. Unironically the one exchange he wasn’t composed and was wide and reckless he got his lights put out.

    Tank didn’t look good at all. The ko was nice but he was struggling in there. He didn’t set up anything. If anything he looked unimpressive. Complained to the ref, yelled in pain. Just not a great performance at all til the ko. But that’s just being honest and not sliding on his jock. Rolly did catch him a couple of times and it was clear Tank was very uncomfortable with it. Tanks power is what is going to bail him out most of the time but Rolly is just barely a good opponent and Tank didn’t look levels above him at all.

    Tank giving up rounds for a KO is not going to work against elite competition

    Excuses excuses. How come that defense doesn't apply to Pac's shoulder?
