    Done deal, per various sources.

    Exact date in June TBA, putting the first as placeholder.

    WBA lightweight title on the line, 5th defense of Wahid.

    Both are undefeated American southpaws.

    First championship opportunity for Martin. Like, professional title of any kind, not just world titles - although he is coming off a pair of 12-rounder eliminators.

    Martin will have success early on because Tank is a slow starter, but once Tank gets the engine running it will only be a matter of time before he clips Martin and hurts him bad. Tank KO9

    Correction: 1st defense of Tank's WBA title. WBA regular doesn't count.

    I think Martin is gonna surprise people and have a lot of success in this bout. I’m still favoring Davis, but it’s not gonna be easy at all. This is the level of opposition that Tank should’ve been facing for years now.

    Tank is going to be 30 soon and will be slowing down athletically.
    It´s going to be funny when lack of opposition and age catch up with him.

    Golovkin defended his like 10 times.
    And gullible idiots ate up the BS story about how he defended his MW belt 20 times.
